WFH to Hang w/ Your Fur Babies
Hi! I’m a longtime dog mama who is without a companion for the first time in my adult life. I work from home and would be happy to help out with your fur babies. You will see profile photos with my big boi who has now passed but I still have to show him off! But whatever care situation you need, your pets will be my priority. I have a very flexible routine. I am happy to adapt to whatever schedule your family needs. Share with me the nuances of how you care for your fur babies and I will do the same so they feel secure while you are away. I’m very attentive and work hard to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I’ve cared for and loved pets of all ages and temperaments and can give appropriate and compassionate attention to settle anything that comes up. The most important thing to me is to care for your pet so well you might get jealous. 😝

Ratings and reviews
Jan was wonderful watching my three dogs overnight. She was communicative throughout, sending timely updates and photos so I always knew how they were doing. She was respectful of my home and took wonderful care of the pups, making sure they felt comfortable and safe. I'd book her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter who can manage a pack of dogs!
We were disappointed with our experience. Jan was unable to consistently keep the scheduled visit times, often arriving hours late and other times early without notice. While she did clean the litter box, she repeatedly left the litter waste beside the box instead of disposing of it. We also discovered on our home camera that our cat's water fountain had run dry during our trip, and we had to contact her to ask that it be refilled which we expected her to monitor. We appreciated that she played YouTube videos for our cat. However, she also allowed—and even encouraged—our cat to jump on and touch our television while the videos were playing, resulting in damage to the screen. Unfortunately, the inconsistent scheduling, and lack of attention to basic care, mean we cannot recommend her services.
Jan was great! Very communicative with us while she watched our two dogs at our house for several nights. She sent us pics and updates and left the dogs healthy and happy upon our return and the house tidy. Highly recommend and would use Jan again if she’s up for it
Jan was absolutely amazing. She was professional, communicative, and clearly very loving to our fur baby. We would love to have her stay with our doggie again. Thank you so much, Jan!
Jan was great with our two dogs, sent us great photos while we were away and kept the house very clean!
Wonderful as always!

A typical day
I love to go on walks and let your dog do their thing. Some are sniffers and you have to stop every 20 seconds… some pull towards an unknown mission, most are obsessed with squirrel enforcement issues… and everything in between.

- It’s important to know how social your dog is with people and other pets so I know what to be cautious of for interactions on the leash, which can be very different from the dogs behavior at home.
