Pet care experience

After spending a few years dog sitting for friends and family, I decided to become a little more serious about dogs. So I started working at a doggy daycare and was there for almost two years. There I trained basic dog skills (sit, stay, potty outside etc) and learned appropriate praise and corrections. Often I could be watching up to 60 dogs at one time (both big and small). I love the commotion of the dog park as well as the intimacy of a personal walk. I have also taken care of dogs with special needs so don't be afraid if your dog needs a little extra care. Cats are also a specialty of mine so don't fret if you have one or two of those in the house, I'll give as many pets as I can. Let me help ease your mind with your favorite furry friend(s). I work from home full time so I'm available during the day, I do have a cat in my house so I'd like to do a meet and greet with any dogs staying in my home to ensure a comfortable fit for all.

Jacki was terrific with my kitties! I left without any concern for their welfare as I felt they were in good hands. She proved me right! I whole-heartedly recommend her as a responsible, caring pet-sitter.

Jacki house sat and watched my cat and dog for a long weekend. I was pleased to come home to healthy and happy animals and a clean home. Thanks Jacki

Very responsive, kind, and professional. My dog was very happy after her walk. Would definitely hire Jacki again in the future.

Jacki was really easy to work with and took excellent care of our pets and home. When our flight got cancelled and we needed additional care, she stepped right in to help make our time away less stressful. Very appreciative of her and her services!
