Availability
I work from home so every day is a puppy party. The pets I care for enjoy frequent breaks to play, walk, or relax nearby while I work on my laptop.

About Jane O.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
My policy is to never let a dog out of my sight, even in a fenced yard. Pets can often behave unpredictably when separated from their owners. I focus on keeping them engaged through exercise and play tasks, providing plenty of distractions until your return. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities.
Information Jane O. would like to know about your pet
HARNESS REQUIRED FOR DOGS. For safety reasons, I require the dogs I watch to have a fitted harness or other alternative to the standard flat collar. Questions I will ask during a meet and greet: What routine is your pet accustomed to (e.g., mealtimes, energy/activity times, bathroom norms)? Does your dog have a return or release command, in case of emergency? What stresses pet? What excites them?
A typical day
In addition to frequent walks, I love encouraging daily zoomies! I’ll play with them in the backyard, at their favorite nearby dog park, or engage with them indoors. Your dog will love being part of my pack while you're away.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Jane! I’ve been professionally caring for dogs since 2015, and I make it a priority to learn about each pet before we meet. This includes researching breed-specific needs and understanding any medical conditions to ensure I provide the best possible care. For both dogs and cats, I strive to stick as closely as possible to your routine, while adding a little extra love and exercise to help ease their anxiety while you’re away. Please feel free to ask any questions about my services. I look forward to spending time with your pet family! **New Clients: 3-day minimum required for first booking.**

Reviews
So reliable and friendly. Love the updates!
Jane was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home with our bulldog for four nights. There were frequent pictures and check-ins which we so appreciated. One hundred percent will use her again!
Jane took good care of our babies and kept us in the loop with regular photo updates. We also felt very at ease leaving our doggies with Jane. Will definitely recommend.
Jane was a wonderful house guest. She treated our dogs like it was a Disney vacation. Sent loads of photos and kept us updated all weekend. She even took this call last minute. We were very thankful to keep our dogs in their home and not boarded. I would recommend Jane and will definitely be booking with her again!
