Highlights
Pet care experience
Nature loving dog sitter!
I have been caring for animals my whole life and I have also spent time volunteering at animal shelters, walking and playing with the animals. I am comfortable around dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds. Family friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and stay with their pets when they are away or during their busy schedules. I have experience with senior dogs and puppies. I love to get outside and adventure, so I can take your pup/s on local trails like Dale Balls or Atalaya.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am respectful of boundaries and understand that some pets might be hesitant towards a new person and might need longer to get comfortable. Getting a clear understanding of what comforts and routine the pet has (favorite toy, sleeping spot, treat after play time, etc.) will help me maintain that routine and make sure the pet is as comfortable as they can be. I also have experience with senior dogs who prefer to stay closer to home and can be patient and attentive to their needs. I pay close attention to the behaviors of the pet and communicate with owners if there are any changes to that behavior. It's important to meet the pet once or twice before caring for them to make sure a connection has been established and that the pet is comfortable in my presence.
Ratings and reviews
Jackie is a great dog walker! She is very communicative, great with our dog and very pleasant to work with!!
Jackie is amazing with our dog and our cat! She is super easy to book with and we never have to worry about our babies with her! :)
Jackie is wonderful. Our pups were happy. Highly recommend.
Both my dog and cat were well cared for, and Jackie let me know if there were any issues as they arose during my trip. Thanks, Jackie!
I've counted on Jackie on two occasions-first to walk my dogs when I couldn't and then to house sit. The dogs were happy with her and she left the house in great shape.
Jackie house-sat for us and watched our dog and cat while we were away. She took our dog on a fun hike one day (after checking with me first to make sure it was ok) and walked him every day. And our sensitive cat — who usually needs a few days to adjust after we've been gone — was calm and happy when we got back. In addition, our house was clean and Jackie was great about communicating with me as needed. Thank you, Jackie!

Schedule
I'm currently working part-time so I have a flexible and fairly available schedule. Mornings and evenings are always free for me, and the optimal time for walks or adventures. Depending on the day, I can also provide afternoon care and have the flexibility to work with your pets needs. Weekends are also usually free for me and I can provide full-day care or longer outdoor adventures like hikes!
