Availability

I am in the office on Mondays and Wednesdays but the other three days of the week I am working from home. My typical working hours are 8am -4pm but when I am in the office I can be available after 5pm. I do take a workout class multiple times a week but I also have a car so it is easy to get around the city.

Information Jaclyn B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special behaviors or training I should be aware of as well as any specific wording that you use when instructing them (if they have a command word when eating or needing to go outside).

A typical day

I love finding new forms of enrichment for your dogs. Based on your preference I am always happy to put together a lick mat, take them to the park to play catch or even just sit at the park on some patches of grass. If your dog likes to spend a lot of time inside as well I have many shows I am happy to watch alongside them on the couch!

Caring for your pets like family

Pet care experience

I grew up with Labrador Retrievers and have years of hands-on experience caring for my parents’ three Labs as well as my siblings’ rescue dogs. After college, since I didn’t have a dog of my own, I became the go-to sitter and walker for family and friends. Because I don’t currently have a dog, your pup will receive my full, undivided attention while in my care. I have experience with dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to senior dogs who require patience and a gentler pace. I’m comfortable with different routines and energy levels, and I understand how important consistency and trust are when someone else is caring for your dog. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and well-exercised while giving you peace of mind.

Jaclyn was recommended by one of our other frequent sitters and was amazing! She went above and beyond for our Maltese Lincoln! Definitely recommend booking with her!
