About Janelle W.

Safety, trust & environment

I would provide high quality, loving care on a schedule to help maintain your pets comfort. Safety of your pet is my top priority closely followed by their comfort. I want to get to know each of your pets like they are my own. I want your pet to enjoy me and much as I will enjoy them! If your pet comes to my house for day care I do require them to be create trained. Occasionally I must leave my house for no longer than 2 hours. My pets get created if I am away as that keeps them safe! I do have a security camera I would keep on your pet if I must step away. I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross!

Information Janelle W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any specific routines your pets like or dislike. Advise me of any things to avoid or things they may love. Give me some tips or things your pet loves to do! I want to curate an enjoyable experience for your pet while you are away! For pet boarding in my home your dog must be able to be in a crate when I am away. I do prefer create trained dogs. I have limited availability for in home boarding. If that is something you are needing please reach out. All dogs must be up to date on state required vaccinations and show proof.

A typical day

I will talk to your pet and play with their favorite toys. If your pet enjoys a cuddle I will sit with them and show them love. I want your pet to enjoy their time with me! I will do what is enjoyable for your pet! I am a routine schedule oriented person and would try to keep your pet on as normal of a routine as I can! I often arrive with a treat for your pet so they associate my visit with something positive especially in the introduction phase! Please let me know if there are any dietary restrictions!

Pet care experience

I don't remember a time when I didn't have a dog in my life! I grew up with dogs and have been involved with dogs since I was little. I have owned and interacted with a variety of breeds. I grew up helping my grandfather train horses and my grandmother train service dogs. So the love of animals is instilled in me! I am very comfortable around a variety of dog breeds and personalities! I have 5 dogs( 2 senior girls and 3 active ladies)! I own 2 Mudi which is a Hungarian herding breed. I actively show and compete with them in AKC and UKC events. I also own a cat! She is a feisty gal who is very opinionated! I am a medical assistant and with that comes the confidence to handle medical issues or requirements your pet may need! I am comfortable providing medication or medical care that a vet has prescribed to your pet! I have also completed a cat and dog first aid/CPR course through the Red Cross! I look forward to getting to know you and your pets!

I cannot recommend Janelle enough! She recently cared for my four dogs and four cats while we were away for four days, and she went above and beyond in every possible way. She stopped by several times each day, spent extra time at the house so the dogs could stretch their legs, socialize, and feel less confined, and gave all of my pets so much love and attention. She was incredibly dependable, caring, and thoughtful the entire time. She even handled a very messy pet accident without hesitation or complaint, which I was so grateful for. On top of caring for the animals, she brought them extra treats, checked our mail, took out the trash, and even washed dishes I had accidentally left behind before leaving for our trip. Knowing she was there gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It is rare to find someone who treats your home and pets with the same care they would their own. My animals were happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I would trust her again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly exceptional.

I highly recommend Janelle. Our 5 cats are our 'babies' and we are particular about their care. She keeps us well-informed and when we return home it's obvious they have been fed, watered and given treats as we've specified. Their litter boxes are maintained and she cleans up the inevitable messes they leave. She has extensive experience with dogs as well, as she and her family own show dogs and a cat themselves.

I can’t recommend Janelle enough as a dog sitter. She is incredibly reliable, attentive, and truly cares about the dogs in her care. Every time my dog is with her, I know they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. Her attention to detail and communication gives me total peace of mind.

Janelle is a great young lady. She is married a wonderful man and they have 4 children. They all have a great love and respect for animals. I always trust her to watch my 11 year old Black Lab when I am out of town. I know she will alway give the best care and keep me informed if she feels something is not right with her.
