Pet care experience

My fur babies are my life!

Growing up in a household full of pets from little on up, I have lived, loved, and cared for all sorts of animals. To me, they are truly more than just 'pets', rather more like my own children - they are, and always will be; family members even after they have passed. Throughout my life, I have learned quite a bit about breeds and their personalities, even helping with puppies being delivered. I have owned Boxers, German Shepherds, Akitas, Lhasa Bichon mixes, Cockapoo mixes, Saint Bernard, Miki, Bosten Terriers, and even a Golden Doodle, not to mention my years' worth of owning cats, rabbits, and even birds - some of which I currently have. Some years back, I helped my precious Cockapoo mixed girl, give birth. Delivering 7 healthy puppies! Only then to do it all over again a few years later to another litter of 7 healthy pups! With this came many fears but also many surprises and memories. I am glad I got the opportunity to experience such things as warming them with a towel, helping them breathe, cleaning up mom, and even bottle feeding them. Though, to be honest, watching them grow was probably one of the hardest things for me because I knew that one day, I'd have to let them go. Which of course, came all too quickly. Nonetheless, I'd do it all over again if I could. I am reliable and am capable of taking on any special instructions. I am beyond trustworthy and honest, ensuring the safety of your pet as my first priority. I do not offer overnights, or sitting in my own home for the safety of my own pets. I look forward to hearing from you! Thank you in advance for your business and your reviews!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced-in yard to keep my dogs safe. My cats stay inside so they're safe. Safety is always first so they don’t get out or run away.

Jackie was fantastic. We totally baby our cat and she made us feel confident he was in good hands. Lots of pictures and updates. We also had a family emergency that kept us out of town longer; Jackie was incredibly kind and looked after our boy longer than anticipated.

Jackie was fantastic! She communicated clearly and consistently, which made the whole experience stress-free. Most importantly, she took wonderful care of our pets—they were happy, healthy, and clearly well looked after when we returned. It gave us great peace of mind while we were away knowing they were in such capable hands!

I am and have been self-employed for many years, so I can set my own hours! Since I run my own business, I do try to have my phone near me so I will certainly try to respond as quickly as possible! I would love to help take care of someone else's pets while they are away so the pets don’t feel so alone! 🐩🐈
