Pet care experience
*Fully vaccinated against COVID* Hi, my name is Jane and I’m thrilled to be your next pet-sitter on Rover! I grew up with dogs and have always loved everything about animals, ESPECIALLY dogs. I grew up with pups and they just make me happy. Period. My first experience with a dog was with our first family pet, Pancho, when I was six. We adopted him from the Humane Society and I learned early on how easy it is to bond with animals. My other most memorable experience with animals was helping to train a yellow lab who was learning to be a guide dog for the blind. I took her everywhere with me, including my school, the grocery store, etc., and it made me feel really good to help a dog give sight to someone in need. Pet-sitting has given me the opportunity to work many types of breeds and sizes of dogs. I am open to caring for all types and l make a real effort to understand each pup’s distinct personality. I find it works best when I speak with my clients about how they want their dogs to be cared for and do my best to adjust my care to their specific needs. I provide excellent customer service by communicating openly, responding as quickly as possible to requests and keeping in touch with my clients during their dog’s time with me. I also send photos and updates and make sure I stay attentive to their dog’s needs, particularly when it comes to giving water, food, potty breaks and making sure they remain comfortable and content! I enjoy being active with dogs and love going on walks or cuddling. I have experience giving medication and understand how to get to know a dog on his or her terms. If allowed, I will use treats to reward good behavior and make sure to give lots of pets and cuddles as well! Finally, I am reliable and am a perfectionist. I am always on time and make sure my clients’ dogs are fed and walked on time.
Reviews
Jane did very well with our reactive dog and sent lots of pictures without us having to ask, which was appreciated. We feel confident leaving our dog with her.
Jane has dog sat for us at our home twice now. She is punctual, easy to coordinate things with and made sure our dog Rooney got all the care and attention she needed while we were away. She also sent us regular pictures which we really appreciated. Thank you Jane 🙏
Took great care of our hard-to-manage girl for several days and sent us plenty of pictures.
We really enjoyed Jane babysitting our dog, Bear! She was very dependable, responsive and was great with our dog. She took him on walks, played with him, fed him and hung out for the day! She checked in on us and sent pictures, which I really appreciated. We would highly recommend Jane and look forward to using her again!

I am happy to play fetch, etc. with your dog in the yard and I don't mind dogs sleeping on the bed with me. I am very careful when entering/exiting a client's home to make sure their dog doesn't try to get out the front door.

Availability
Weekends and holidays I don’t work so I have a lot of time to spend with your dog. Currently my Monday through Friday schedule is work 6:30 am to 3 pm and I have a regular dog walking gig on Monday through Friday 4-5 pm. I currently have weekdays marked as unavailable for house sitting and boarding because I find that most people want a sitter who is not gone such long hours. If my weekday schedule is not an issue for you, feel free to discuss it with me and I can make adjustments to my calendar. Thank you!
