Safety, trust & environment

I try to maintain your pets stability by sticking to your routine and habits to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible. We will follow your schedule so they know what to expect throughout our interaction.

Information Jana D. would like to know about your pet

If boarding, I will need a copy of the vaccine records which must include bordatella, distemper, and rabies. K9 influenza preferred. Puppies under 1 year old must have at least the first of a shot series. Any instructions for medicine and/or medical accommodations, like special diet. What does meal time at your house look like? Please provide food, type of food, and quantity per meal. Is your pet sensitive to certain things or have allergies? Any other information you think I should know!

A typical day

Typically we start with a 10 minute walk in the backyard. Afterward, I feed the critters, admin meds, and tidy up their room and bedding. Another longer walk after meals on the walking trail with lots of play time to finish the morning. We have another playtime scheduled in the afternoon and water -friendly pups enjoy a wading pool in the summer months.

Pet care experience

I have over 10 years of experience in animal husbandry and veterinary care. I cared for a multitude of animals, including cats, dogs, and other exotic pets. Whether it is daily exercise, extra snuggles, or an extra zen environment, I have the experience for your furbabies. I can administer daily medications, follow complex diets, and look critically at the animals in my care to determine if veterinary assistance is needed. Pictures of your pet can be provided upon request (I usually send one even if it isn't requested but if you want more, I will provide. :)

Jana was great, super professional and kept in touch with photos and messages throughout my trip. I could enjoy my time away much more knowing my cats were being cared for at home with her, and I would definitely rebook with her!

Jana was great with my two pups! She kept me well updated and sent photos throughout her stay with them. She followed all their care instructions and they seemed to enjoy snuggling on the coach with her. I would definitely recommend Jana! I know I will be asking her to sit for us again.

Jana was so kind and patient. She helped us thru a difficult time by giving Jazzy the love and attention she needed. Great dog sitter!

She has given our babies nothing but love. Archie is finally relaxed with someone other than me. It is nice to know I can call someone if I need to.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
