Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and dogs have full run of the house including the living room furniture. I offer medication administration if needed. I have a Labradoodle who is here so your dog will always have a play buddy. My dog is reactive to new people and may bark loudly at meeting. I assure you that she settles right down as soon as the new humans leave and I will send video proof. Sometimes she even settles while new humans are still here! I generally run a kennel free enviroment (unless that is what your dog is used to. Then you can bring your own kennel). At bedtime I take the dogs lead on where they like to sleep. Some prefer sleeping next to my bed, some in my bed and some prefer the living room.

Information Jana L. would like to know about your pet

In order to provide the best care for your dog, please inform me if your dog has a special diet, needs medication during their stay or anything else you may think of. My dog Zena is reactive to new people and can be very loud and Barky at first. She always settles down after about 15 minutes and once she gets to know you she will plop on her back for belly rubs.

A typical day

We love to play fetch and hide and seek. I may take the dogs on walks around the neighborhood or to the beach (dogs will be leashed). Please bring your dogs harness for walks.

Pet care experience

I have lived with dogs my entire life and think of them as family. I will only have small groups of dogs at a time so your pupper will get lots of attention and belly rubs. I have experience with senior dogs and administering medications.

I was nervous about hiring a sitter to watch my dogs while having to attend a funeral put of state, because they can take awhile to warm up to new people as well as be reactive to new people, but after two meet n’ greets (Jana was very patient and probably stayed longer than most people would have while trying to calm my dogs), the pups ended up accepting her as one of their people. She provided updates and photos everyday. Would highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Jana. She is by far the best Rover experience ever. We will definitely be using her again. She is an animal lover for sure. So grateful for her

Jana was incredible with my 3 labs. She was very accommodating and attentive and followed up with me each day with photos and updates on how they were all doing.
