Hello! My name is Jackie, and I'm a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry (and even finned!) companions. As the proud owner of a 4-year-old golden retriever and an 8-year-old black cat, I’ve developed a strong sense of responsibility, consistency, and compassion. I genuinely love spending time with animals—whether that means going on walks, playing, cuddling, or simply making sure they’re happy and well-fed and I am home full time and do have time! **Experience & Services:** - Completed a dog training course at Petco to teach leash manners and heeling - Experienced with walking dogs, weather permitting - Able to take dogs to the dog park or local lake (with owner’s permission) - Comfortable feeding and caring for dogs, cats, fish—and even farm animals, if needed! - Happy to take your pet for fun car rides if that’s something they enjoy - Always follow your pet’s specific care instructions with attention to detail **Boarding Services:** I offer weekend dog boarding in my home (Saturdays and Sundays), limited to one dog at a time to ensure personalized care. Because I have children, I ask that all dogs be kid-friendly. My home doesn’t have a fenced yard, so I prefer taking dogs to a nearby park for safe, supervised play. Indoor play is always an option too—I’ll make sure your pup stays active and comfortable. **Drop-In Visits & Dog Walking:** I’m happy to provide drop-in visits and walking services, with flexibility to include my young son when needed. Your understanding helps me balance being a stay-at-home mom while doing what I love—caring for animals and building my side hustle with heart. If you have any questions or special requests, please feel free to reach out. I’d love to learn about your pet’s personality and how I can make them feel safe, loved, and right at home. Many thanks in advance, **Jackie**
