Caring and Conscientious Sitter

I have years of experience caring for dogs, both as a pet owner and a sitter. I understand that consistency is key, so I follow their routines to make each stay as comfortable and stress free as possible. Whether your pup loves walks, playtime, or extra snuggles, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they need while you’re away. My rate includes up to 1 hour of walking each day. As a house sitter, I also keep your home secure, tidy, and running smoothly - bringing in mail, watering plants, and maintaining your pet’s usual routine. I provide up to two detailed updates per day, typically once in the morning and again in the early evening. If anything unexpected comes up in between, I’ll reach out right away. This approach helps me stay fully present and focused on your pet’s care while keeping you comfortably in the loop. Please let me know if there are any cameras inside your home and their locations. Thank you!

Janelle was absolutely fabulous with my kitties ! She followed my cats daily routine, offered them so many cuddles and pats, administered medicine and was so communicative throughout my whole vacation. I am super grateful for the care she had for them.

Janelle is an AMAZING dog and house sitter! I’ve used rover for over 5 years and Janelle is one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! She gives frequent updates, lots of photos, and took great care of our two dogs and the house. I’m really happy with the care our dogs got and with our home when we returned from a trip- if I could give more than 5 stars I would 🙂

Janelle was amazing. She took care of our boy during a difficult time but we know he was well taken care of! We got tons of updates and photos. He had the best time.
