I work from home independently as an audio editor/sound designer for film and radio. I have headphones on for most of the day but I work flexible hours, which means I can keep an eye on pets all day long and can pause my work at any moment to take care of their needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a clean person who tries to leave any space I visit neater than it was before. I have a walled patio and my home is gated on all sides, so even pets who bolt out the front door have nowhere to go. My home is extremely safe and very hard to escape. I love having pets sleep in my bed with me!

Information Jaanelle Y. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special dietary rules I should follow, otherwise I will probably be feeding them treats to keep them happy. If they are boarding or in day care with me, I’ll need to be certain that they are friendly to other cats.

A typical day

I love taking dogs out for walks around the various parks in the Grove area. We can play in my yard until they get tired or just sit together soaking in the sun if your pet is low energy! Of course I’ll bring them inside if it’s hot out or rainy. For indoor only pets, I look forward to playing with their favorite toy and curling up together with a book when we are all tired out.

Pet care experience

Hablo español también! I am a Coconut Grove native who has a lifetime of home experience and several years of volunteer experience caring for dogs, cats, and exotic animals. Until recently (RIP Snowball), I had a Bichon Frise as my pet for 18 years. I am expert with elderly dogs + passionate about keeping pets healthy and making sure they live long happy lives. My cat (10 years old) grew up with Snowball and has been very lonely since he passed. I would love to board new friends at our house for her to spend time with.

Janelle took great care of our two cats and sent daily pics! They’re getting more complicated in their old age and appreciated her looking out for them and giving medications.

We were super grateful that Jaanelle was able to take care of our cats for a very last minute weekend trip. She came one day early to meet the cats and pick up the keys, was communicative with us, and left us cute Polaroid pictures of our cats. Thanks so much !
