Safety, trust & environment

Your pets will love having some company in their own home. I can keep up their usual feeding, medication and activity routine while you're away and provide walks, play and plenty of affection to make sure they're at their happiest and most comfortable.

Information Jackie J. would like to know about your pet

I enjoy dogs of all sizes and breeds. I do like to know some basic info about your dog's temperament and energy level before I meet them. I'm comfortable working with hyper, anxious or stubborn dogs as long as I know their individual needs; it helps me to keep your dog happy and comfortable. And if your dog has any special physical or emotional needs, let me know and I will be happy to accomodate them.

A typical day

I love to spend time with dogs doing whatever they have the most fun doing. Does you dog really love tug-of-war? Playing with the hose? Leisurely walks? All-out runs? Whatever gets your dog really excited, that's what we'll do. I'm up for anything.

Pet care experience

I'm obsessed with animals and I don't care who knows. Over the years, I've worked with cats, dogs, birds, rodents and reptiles. I've worked in dog/cat rescues, a bird sanctuary and cared for/trained my own and my friends' pets. No breed, species or temperament is off-limits for me. My top priority is meeting your furbaby's needs. Whether they need a running buddy, a professional cuddler, or an energetic playmate, I'm on it! My favorite activities include: -Letting your pet lead and set the pace during walks, so that they can explore and get in touch with their instincts. -Providing pets with some well-deserved pampering (i.e. cuddles, massage, baths) -Providing basic training and teaching tricks to help animals bond more effectively with their humans. -Engaging in interactive play that exercises their brains as well as their bodies. If your pet needs a buddy to help them live life to the fullest even when you're at work or on vacation, reach out to me. I'd sincerely love to meet and care for them.

Jackie always does an amazing job taking care of our fur babies. She updates us multiple times a day about all the fun they are having. I love that I feel so comfortable leaving my animals with her.

Jackie did an excellent job with our dog and cat. She kept us up to date and informed and has a good understanding of animal behavior. Both animals warmed to her immediately. Highly recommend.

Jackie was terrific! She was at the house on time, sent pics and updates and left the house like we left it. Most importantly, I could tell from the pics the dogs were comfortable with Jackie and happy. Highly recommend her!!

Jackie did a great job!! She was very attentive to our anxiety driven animals. She administered their medications efficiently and always kept us up to date. We hope she will watch our fur babies again soon.
