Experienced pet care provider/lover

Pet care experience

As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I’m able to provide dedicated, in-home pet care with plenty of flexibility! I’m usually away from home for no more than 3 hours a day, so your pet will rarely be alone. All pets need to be able to be left alone for at least 3 hours. I do provide constant care for additional fee. I’ve been a lifelong dog and cat owner, and for over ten years I fostered senior dogs giving me extensive experience with older and medically complex dogs. My home features a large, fully fenced backyard. All outdoor time is supervised for safety, and I don’t accept dogs known to jump fences.

Jackalyn did an amazing job with both of our dogs. They were well taken care of and really enjoyed themselves. She was very attentive of the information she received pertaining to our dogs and provided daily updates throughout their time with her. I will definitely be returning for her assistance again in the future. Thank you so much for everything!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience! From the moment we met, I knew my dogs were in amazing hands. She treated Niko and Meeka like family and went above and beyond to make sure they felt loved, comfortable, and cared for. She provided regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that she genuinely cared about my dogs and paid attention to every detail of their routine. I came home to two happy, relaxed pups, which speaks volumes about the level of care she provided. Finding someone you trust with your dogs is priceless, and I truly feel like I found a gem. She is reliable, kind, and incredibly attentive, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for taking such exceptional care of Niko and Meeka, we are so grateful!

Jackalyn was a great sitter. She took good care of my fur baby from the start to end. She sent daily pics and updates that were so appreciated. I recommend her and I will book her again.
