Safety, trust & environment

Although I do have a wonderful, small fenced-in yard, I live in an 800 sq ft home therefore, I think it's best to go where the pet is most-comfortable (their own home).

Information Janelle E. would like to know about your pet

What the owner feels is important for me to know (favorite toys, foods, routines, comfort-items). Emergency contact & vet information is good to have on-hand.

A typical day

I love to visit my furry friends to toss the ball in the backyard, take them on a walk, to the river, take them to a dog park or private field. Even if they just need a stop by to give them a meal, potty-break, walk, cuddle or a belly-rub or toss the ball around, it’s important for my happiness to be able to be around an animal daily. More importantly, that I impact the animal’s life in a positive way. Making a pet happy makes me happy.

Every cat has a unique personality

Cat care experience

I was Blessed with a Tortoiseshell cat for 15 years named Penelope Rose. Pets truly help us through the hardest times of our lives and we help them in return. They do find us, for sure. She was developed cat asthma (rare) and medication was not helping her so I put her down and that was my last pet years ago. I grew up having a grey Siamese cat. Both cats followed me everywhere. Every cat I meet has a unique personality that I love getting to know each and every one. Cats make me feel very calm & relaxed and I feel I have that same effect on them as well. I like the idea of sometime developing a cat toy line because I used to make so many homemade, safe ones when I was growing up. I understand Dogs & Cats and they seem to get me too. I used to foster a 3-legged handi-capable cat and an amazing 1-eyed cat (who is older than 20 years and is now blind). She keeps on going that sweet girl! Shes got a great will to live. I’m familiar with wound-care and post-vet care. I’m in tune with cats and understand calming techniques to make their environment pleasant & comfortable.

Janelle was fantastic! She stayed with our 11 year old dog in our home for a week, and we couldn't be more pleased. She took great care of our beloved dog and home (the house was cleaner than when we left). She enthusiastically followed my many instructions, keeping our dog's routines in tact while we were away, with lots of walks, snuggles, treats and pictures provided. She even took our dog on errands with her so she wouldn't be left home alone. I will use Janelle anytime we need a sitter and highly recommend her. I was also very impressed with her attention to detail, affection and consideration for my pup's welfare. Thank you Janelle!

Janelle is an excellent pet-sitter. She has regularly stayed at our home for several years caring for our two dogs and two cats. Our pets are truly our family and Janelle cares for them as if they are her own. I completely trust Janelle, and know she gives our pets all her love and full attention when she stays with them. They are always so excited to see her. Even our snooty kitty has come to love Janelle. Our two dogs are rescues and they can have their challenges, and Janelle gives them the individual attention and care they need to be happy. Janelle goes above and beyond when staying in our home and always leaves it in impeccable condition. Janelle is kind, responsible, and a joy to to have in our lives. I highly recommend Janelle to care for your own pets.

Janelle has cared for my beagle and my mom's mini dachshund multiple times. She is very kind and attentive to their needs. She is really kind and good with pets. She knows they are part of our family and treats them as so. She snuggles and plays with them and treats them like her own children. My beagle is 13 and has separation anxiety and he is comfortable being in her care and I never have to worry that he is upset or stressed when he's with Janelle. I would recommend Janelle for caring for any pet that you may entrust with her. She also loves cats. I know this because she's had cats and I've seen her with her cat and she's the same. She cares for them like children and with love.
