Pet care experience

Dog Park FUN @Pups are my Passion!

I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Regis University with a Bachelor's Degree in Applied Psychology. I use my background in Psychology when caring for dogs in our home. We have a fantastic dog park & extensive grounds for long walks including a neighboring property & large church grounds. My experience caring for dogs started decades ago in the 80's! I've owned a minature poodle, 2 Shih Tzu, a Shih Tzu Pomeranian, a Poodle Pomeranian, a Retriever, & a Great Pyrenees. I believe dogs are the most perfect animals on the planet & deserve our respect, love, & adoration. I'm an author who works from home available for tender, loving, care through the day & overnights too! Our home is clean & a bit luxurious where your dear one will be safe & spoiled until you return for pickup. I offer unofficial training, puppy & senior care as well.

Safety, trust & environment

In our home dogs roam free! If you'd like to bring a crate of course you can. I center my care around love, encouragement, & long walks for exercise & happiness! Your pup will always be leashed when walking to the dog park on our property then allowed to play leash free! I can also come to your home for care & even stay the night. Multiple nights caring for your dog are also available as well as drop in visits & extensive walks in your neighborhood. I provide pictures & videos to reasurre you that your dog is receiving the best possible care!

Janelle is a true dog whisperer. She is loving and energetic. I will be using her again. She took Coco on many hikes and when my flight was delayed in Nashville she was more than helpful. She gave Coco So much love and attention. Janelle is the best.

Janelle has decades of experience with multiple types of dog from toy Pomeranians to Great Pyrenees! Her knowledge & kindness is evident; it's easy to see her passion is dogs! She's also someone you can trust. Being raised in an Air Force family shows in how neat, clean, & organized she keeps her home. And all the pups love to follow her to the large dog park on the grounds here. Once you pick Janelle, I promise you'll be choosing her again & again for your dog's tender loving care!

Dog care is the highlight of my life! We own a 10 year old gentle Pomapoo named Echo who loves all dogs! He's only about 10lbs & goes with me everywhere. He lost his bonded pair Halo a Shih Tzu Pomeranian last year. So, he's longing for doggy friends to visit. Having your dog come by will be like a dream come true! We're right next to Century Park & have a South Carolina State Park Annual Pass! Here everything is centered around dog happiness & comfort 24/7!
