Pet care experience

Personal trainer with time for pets

Hello! I'm 33 years old and live in Redmond, WA with my husband in a home with a fully fenced yard. We have a named Kobe Bear, and I love going on hikes, runs, and dog park outings with him! I've had the experience of caring for a full litter of German Shepherd puppies and regularly house/pet sit for friends and family. I'm a full-time personal trainer and firefighter with flexible hours, so I'm available to care for animals all day long. I'm also very active and can easily keep up with athletic pups! I hope you find the perfect sitter for your pets! I'm a sucker for pictures, so I'd keep you updated constantly with how your pets are doing—just as I'd want to be updated if I were away!

Janelle did a great job with Bentley. She took her for multiple walks, let her play with her dog Kobe. She had an absolute blast and we loved receiving tons photos to show us how she was doing! She was also a speedy communicator and we really appreciated it.

Janelle is a wonderful dog sitter. Our family appreciated the daily updates with photos and videos. It’s reassuring to know our dog was being well cared for and active. Our pup and hers got along great, another major plus.
