Let me spoil your furbabies!

Pet care experience

I've had fur-babies all my life and treat them as members of my family. Yours will be treated as extended family members and probably spoiled! **I have a cat in the house who likes to play with dogs, if your dog isn't good with cats, its not a fit as its not fair to my little guy.

Very friendly and experienced pet sitter. Easy to communicate and centrally-located in Ottawa :)

Jackie was wonderful. I felt badly about leaving our pup (Amos, standard poodle) but she made sure he fit in and regularly sent pics and email. And he made such a good friend with there (Levi) that I am not sure Amos really wanted to come back to us! :) I will definitely leave Amos with Jackie again.

Safety, trust & environment

A few years ago I had to put down my sweet Golden retriever (14yrs) and haven't been ready to adopt a new one yet. Before Covid, I had left my career to start a food business, but that was shelved due to the pandemic. Then I was diagnosed with a chronic illness (thankful I didn't start the biz!) so pet sitting was the perfect fit! Time with animals is JUST what the doc ordered. They really are angels on earth.

Information Jackie K. would like to know about your pet

How they behave on/off leash when other dogs are present. Any health conditions/special diet/meds What are they "tell" signs that they have to go out!

A typical day

I love walking through the neighbourhoods and meeting other dog walkers and their fur-kids! Dog parks are always fun and I'm a huge fan of Bruce Pit! Make sure you prepare for pet for a giant love bomb, because I'm all about snuggles!!! For any older dogs - I have access to open outdoor spaces just outside my front door, so they don't have to go on long walks if they are unable to. I also have a fenced backyard, with only a few hours of direct sunlight in the afternoon, otherwise it's nice and shady.

Building my experience so I can start my own little business. I love all animals and it seems, most of the ones I've met have loved me back! ***Now providing day care for 1-4 dogs/ day. I do work part-time away from the home and on days I work, I leave by 4:40pm so day care would depend on if you can pick them up by that time.
