Responsible & Experienced Pet Lover
Pet care experience
I am a 31 yr. old currently working full time as a remote web developer. I graduated college in 2011 with a BS in Equine Administration. I've always loved animals and have pet sat for many different clients over the years - many of them still call me when they are planning a trip and need a sitter. Even though I do work full time during the week, I work remotely and have the flexibility to make drop in visits during the day (or even work from your home if you have wireless internet!). I have been pet sitting for many years now and have experience with dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, rats, chinchillas, hamsters, and other farm animals. I have excellent references and many happy clients I have worked with in the past. I can promise your pets will be as loved and cared for as they are when you are home with them! Why I love pet sitting: I have been an animal lover my entire life and have always had at least 1 cat and dog. I currently have 1 of each plus a horse!
Reviews
Hannah was outstanding and dependable with feeding and litter care for my three cats. My shy cat even finally came out towards the end of the visits. Hannah was able to deal with the unexpected, as in the bag of cat kibble my cats chewed open and scattered across the kitchen floor. I would definitely book Hannah again!
Hannah did a great job with my shy cat. She came out when she arrived which is amazing. That just lets me know my cat was comfortable with Hannah. Thank you Hannah for your help.
Thank you so much, Hannah! I know with the storms it was hard to get Sage to cooperate. Thank you for your patience with her. Your pictures are always the highlight of our trips. Thank you!!
Thank you, Hannah! We always appreciate you! You take care of them like they are your own and I truly can’t thank you enough:)

Safety, trust & environment
For boarding, I have a fenced backyard and keep the first level of the house separate from upstairs when I board dogs. I try to keep them on their normal routine as much as possible. If they're used to being crated at night or when alone, I ask that the owner brings the crate. For drop ins or stays at the owner's home, I follow the pet's normal schedule as much as I can!
Home
Information Hannah J. would like to know about your pet
What makes the dog comfortable with a new person and what things to look out for that may indicate stress or other problems. No breed preferences - I love them all! It's also extremely helpful to know the dog's normal routine (how frequently he or she is taken outside, is he or she normally fed at specific times, any specific playtime requests, etc). All of this helps me schedule out the stay and provide an accurate estimate to the owner :) *Now offering boarding in my home to select clients! Boarded dogs must be gentle with cats as I have one (prefer if they leave cats alone entirely!), need to be up to date on all shots, heartworm and flea-tick prevention, be housebroken (absolutely no marking!), and not have a recent history of chewing/destroying anything other than their own toys.
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog Drop-in visits during the day that only consist of feeding and letting outside would take about 15-20 minutes and would include treats and lots of attention! The addition of a walk would add another 15-20 minutes to the time spent. Overnight stays would consist of about 9-10 hours. Extra house-sitting services Bringing in mail and newspaper as well as light watering is included. Dog Boarding: I work from home so generally I'll be home with the dogs during the week. Dogs will have roam of the first floor (kitchen and living area). I have a small fenced backyard and can take them for daily walks if they're used to that regularly. Potential dog park visits and/or visits with my parents' dog can be arranged if owner approves!

Availability
I work full time from home so I'm usually home all day until around 5 or 6pm with about an hour gone around lunch time to tend to weekly clients with drop in visits scheduled. I typically leave in the evening for a few hours, either to run errands or take care of other clients' pets but am never gone for more than 4/5 at a time if I'm boarding a pup.
