Pet care experience
I do my best to take care of your pets the same way you would, so they never have to miss you while you're away! I had 4 regular families in TN, and multiple repeat clients in Charlotte, NC (please check my reviews). I go above and beyond for my clients and their pets to make sure they’re comfortable. I've sat multiple dogs at a time (my highest was 5!) and two older dogs at the same time that required daily oral medication. I’ve had to follow specific feeding directions and routines before, and I've also cared for pets in very laid back environments, so I am comfortable with both. My only downfall is that I work office hours, so the pets may have 8 hour waits between morning and evening. However, I live close enough that if it is necessary, I can run home at lunch. I have a puppy of my own, and so far he does really well with socialization! But that does mean I can only take on dogs who are comfortable with other dogs. I have a huge backyard, so there are no problems making sure they get the exercise and attention they are used to even with my schedule, and I can give them full time attention on the weekends. My only request is that you bring their supplies with them if they are staying with me (food, toys, etc). I want them as comfortable as possible, and having their favorite things helps very much. I can't wait to hear from you and meet your fur babies!
Reviews
Frannie took great care of my cat while we were on vacation for 16 days. She responded right away to all my communications and was unfailingly polite and friendly and very flexible with regard to drop-off and pickup times. I will definitely keep her in mind in the future when we need a sitter for our kitty.
Frannie has watched Malibu multiple times and has done a wonderful job. When she returns home it as if she never left. When she stays at a kennel, and a good one at that, she still comes home super tired from not sleeping. Frannie is accommodating, professional, and above all she treats our dog as if she were her own. Your dog is in capable and caring hands when staying with her.
We are very grateful to Frannie. She has always taken very well care of Snowy. It feels as if Snowy is with a family member. Once again, thank so much Frannie!
Frannie was so great with my dog Riley while I was on a trip! She was very flexible schedule-wise, even when I had to reschedule my flight to the prior day due to weather concerns. Riley immediately bonded with her and I knew she was going to be well cared for. I would definitely rebook with Frannie!

Information Frannie J. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences, I love them all! I prefer to visit the home at least once before the job starts if I have not been there before. If there is any special information to your pets (for example, scared of storms or separation anxiety) I like to be aware of it, so that I can be prepared should it arise while you are away.
A typical day
I have dog parks about 15 min away, and I have a big fenced yard to play in. I love to pet and play with dogs however the pet and owner are most comfortable with. In the past, I have taken the dogs out and played fetch until the dogs were content, and then settled in to watch TV for the night.
