I live in a dog friendly apartment complex with many grassy areas. I also love going on walks at nearby trails or taking dogs to parks. Cuddles are always welcome, but I also respect dogs that want their space.

Information Jacqueline D. would like to know about your pet

No 2 pets are the same! Tell me any needs your pets may have or any interesting quirks I should be aware of. I’d love to know how I can best interact and serve your fur baby.

A typical day

Animals, just like us, need exercise both physically and mentally. I will take your dog to local parks in my area to explore trails, do enrichment activities, praise them and give them all the pets.

Pet care experience

One of my first pets ever was a black and white cat named Simba, who was referred to as my sibling. In recent years I have taken care of my family dog, Tank, a small dog who lives up to his name. I have also cared for friend’s pets when they are out of town for weeks at a time. Pets are part of the family and I understand how deep the love is! I have such a respect for all animals and look forward to caring for your little sweeties :)

Jacqueline took great care of our cat when we were away for a week. She is super nice and was always on time and our cat really enjoyed her company while we were gone.

Jacqueline provided exceptional care for our dog while my wife and I were out of town. She has been entrusted with our dog's care for over three years, both at our residence and hers. The walks have included both long and short excursions. She is highly skilled at playtime and enrichment activities. Jacqueline has become an integral part of our family and our dog has a deep affection for her.

Jacqueline watched my cats when I went to NYC for a long weekend. She was amazing! She would check-in and make sure I was updated on the status on the kiddos, and she even allowed FaceTimes to check in and say hi to my babies. She was a joy and the apartment stayed neat and clean while I was away. I HIGHLY recommend Jacqueline and I couldn’t think of a better person to watch my cats. I will be coming to her when I need a sitter again, for sure! She was the bomb!
