Information Jackie D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your bestie has any special needs, meds, particular likes/dislikes, food choices/food preferences, quirky behaviors, training needs or walking tendencies. I do not have crates, so please feel free to bring your crate if you do crate training. It’s important to keep the same consistency for your fur-baby.

A typical day

Our day - starts off with good morning kisses cuddles and a quick outside walk to do their duty. Coffee, breakfast and more cuddles. Then off we go for a long walk down to the harbor, or if lucky go to the beaches!! There is nothing better than walks, play time! I do lots of praising and training, but most of all I give loads of love!

Love is a wet nose and tail wags!

Pet care experience

I am a very compassionate, enthusiastic person that absolutely loves dogs! I don’t have a dog of my own anymore and only take one dog with no other dogs - unless the dogs in your family are more than one - the more the merrier in that case I’m in! I know many dogs do not get along with other dogs which is normal for many dogs, no worries I get it! This is a huge peace of mind for many dogs and their owners- and my specialty catering to one dog - hence my pricing. Believe me it’s worth every penny! A bit about me- my family and friends have always say “I’m a dog whisperer”! I have always had dogs in my life, but I lost my best friend (yellow lab). She was my soulmate! I am now ready to enjoy and take care of your fur-baby or fur-babies as my own. I give one on one attention to your dog that you will not find anywhere! All the dogs do very well with me, and their owner’s have all said they’ve had a huge relief knowing their fur- babies are in good, loving hands with me! You will absolutely have a peace of mind!! I’m available for house sitting in their comfort of your home or vacation/summer home or boarding here at my home. I also do drop in visits with walks, play and company for your pet. I love going on adventures with trail hikes, beaches and exploring with your pups. I know dogs, and I know their needs. Dogs need social interactions, company and lots of attention just like we do as humans! Your dog(s) will always be my bestie too! I look forward to hearing from you, meeting you and your fur baby!

Jackie was awesome. We are so glad she was available to watch our dog for the weekend. He was in great hands! She is trustworthy, kind, and has a great connection with animals. We look forward to coming back to the cape so our dog can get to see her again. Thank you Jackie!

I’ve left my dog overnight with Jackie on two occasions and will definitely call on her in future. She is professional, organized, communicative, pleasant, and clearly loves taking care of pets! My dog has a health condition that requires twice daily medication and I feel totally at ease leaving her in such capable hands. Highly recommend!
