Your Pets New Best Friend!
Pet care experience
I have had dogs and cats of my own since childhood up until very recently. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, board, and generally care for their pets for years. I love all animals and have a knack for getting to know their personalities and make friends quickly! I miss having animals in my life and look forward to getting to know yours.
Reviews
This is the second time I’ve booked Jane for walks for my dog Samson. She’s fantastic…very reliable and takes him on nice long walks. Highly recommend!
Great communication and flexibility, would book again.
Jane was great! She was communicative and made me feel secure to have her check in on my cat while I was away.
Jane took excellent care of Sully. He has anxiety and some extra challenges with floors & she went above & beyond making him as comfortable as possible! Highly recommend and would happily use her again.
About Jane M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I do lots of walks throughout the day with pets and have food and water on hand for longer trips. I also take pups to the nearest dog park or dog friendly park to run and play fetch if they are accustomed to it. In client's homes, I will often pop in to check on pets during the workday and provide comfort to skiddish pets that don't like to be alone and make sure they are fed, watered and comfortable. Each pet is different with different needs and preferences, so work to adapt my services as best as I can to fit you and your pets needs.

Information Jane M. would like to know about your pet
It's important to know about any special conditions and triggers your dog may have ahead of time such as required medications, if they're a senior, if they're very high energy, don't play well with others, etc.
A typical day
I like to stimulate mentally and physically the dogs I'm caring for. We play games, visit the dog park, and work on any training or tricks they may be training on at home. I have a typical pet-sitting day that starts with a morning walk, breakfast, lots of breaks to spend time together during the day, lunchtime walk, and evening walk and dinner. I like to adapt this to the pet I'm hanging out with, but I have a structured day ready just in case.
