Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog lover and care giver
I'm a dedicated and compassionate caregiver who treats every pet with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. For fourteen years, I raised my beloved Golden Retriever, who taught me the value of loyalty and unconditional love. I had the opportunity to care for a gentle Italian Mastiff, which gave me valuable experience with a large breed and deepened my understanding of different temperaments and needs. Today, I share my life with Gia, an 8-year-old Golden/Pyrenees mix. She is exceptionally well trained and a devoted companion. She brings joy not only to me but also to the many people who stop to greet her wherever we go. I had the privilege of caring for Romeo, a sweet and loving Boston Terrier, during the last three years of his life. Throughout his battle with cancer, I administered his medications, took him to veterinary appointments, supported him through surgery and recovery, and closely monitored his health. I adjusted my home and daily routine to provide him with the comfort, care, and support he needed. Romeo's journey reinforced my commitment to providing every animal with love and compassionate throughout every stage of life. I value building trusting relationships with both pets and their owners. You can expect consistent communication, regular updates, photos, and attentive care throughout every visit or stay. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and loved. For me, caring for animals is more than a service-it's something I truly love. Thank you and I look look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Ratings and reviews
We love Janel!! Our dogs come running when she walks into our house! The one thing that I love to see is her patience with our dogs, she handles every situation as if they were hers. It’s so nice to know our animals are in good hands when we are not around.
Janel has looked after my large dog Hoops many times. I needed to have someone I can trust and has understanding of animals. She has done an excellent job caring for my 85lb pet. He thoroughly enjoys his time with her. Just what Hoops and I needed. Highly recommend. great people and pet skills
Here’s a polished review template you can use for a great Rover dog walker: “I couldn’t be happier with [Dog Walker’s Name]! They were fantastic with my dog, [Rocky], and treated him like their own. [Rocky] came back happy, well-exercised, and wagging his tail nonstop. Janel was punctual, communicative, and sent regular updates with pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely love dogs and has a great understanding of their needs. I’ll definitely be booking Janel again and highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker!”

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to care for dogs in my home or in yours, depending on what best meets your needs. I take time to learn each dog's routine and preferences so they feel comfortable and secure. Together, we'll create a plan that works best for both you and your animal.
Pets
A typical day
Every dog is different, so I tailor each visit to fit their personality, energy level, and routine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or simply extra affection, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you are away. My goal is to give them my full attention and make every visit a positive experience.
