A typical day
A typical day kicks off with ensuring all pets are fed, hydrated, and taken out for a morning walk or play session. Throughout the day, I tailor engaging activities to suit their preferences, from lively games of fetch and tug-of-war to stimulating puzzle toys for mental exercise. Scheduled walks offer not only physical activity but also a chance for fresh air. Indoor playtime might involve interactive games like hide-and-seek or skill-building training sessions. Cuddle sessions and relaxation moments are crucial for fostering bonds and ensuring their contentment. Each pet's unique personality and energy levels dictate our activities, ensuring a rewarding experience for all involved.

Pet care experience
With over a decade of hands-on experience as a dedicated pet owner and caregiver, I bring a wealth of knowledge in pet care, particularly in the nurturing of dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as cats. Currently, I share my home with a lively Chihuahua and two feline companions, while also extending my care to several clients' beloved canines. Additionally, I have undergone training in positive-reinforcement techniques and clicker training methods. Before commencing services, I typically offer a complimentary "Meet and Greet" session. This serves as an invaluable opportunity for us to meet face-to-face, allowing me to familiarize myself with your pets and home environment. Moreover, it's an ideal time to exchange pertinent information such as door codes, keys, and entry instructions. Please note, for services requiring travel to your location, such as dog walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, that rates may vary depending on the distance from my residence in Marlborough.
Reviews




Jacqueline showed up (even during the blizzard!), took care of everything, and spent time playing with our cats. She did a great job.


This is the second time we’ve used Jacqueline- she is so caring and thinks of everything. I feel secure that my pets are well taken care of when she’s with them.
Jacqui is the best! Completely reliable and professional.
She was a fab dogsitter in our home! She communicated very well, maintained a tidy space and cared for our manic but sweet goldendoodle. Would have her back again and again without hesitation.
