A 2nd home for your doggos! 🐾🐶🦴

Well hello there, I’m Janessa! 😄 (yes, I do have 4 doggos) •U.S Army Vet• As a dog mom of 4 myself, I know how hard it can be to find a trustworthy and reliable sitter leave our doggos with when we go on vacation or have an emergency. My main goal as a Rover Sitter is to give you peace of mind knowing that your dog is receiving the best care while you are on vacation or while you are at work! That means daily pictures (and occasionally videos) of your dog playing, relaxing, and having the best time! 🐶 I am passionate about what I do, and I love keeping you updated with pictures and videos of the fun activities that your dog participates in while they are here. 🦴 🐾 We have a large, fully fenced back yard with plenty of room to run and play. The dogs are always supervised when playing. I always want to make sure they are always happy & a tired doggo when they go home! Nothing but excitement to come back! I make homemade dog treats for them as well! 😋 - All dogs are fed separately in their crates. - Dogs are never left together unattended. All dogs are separated and crated if I need to run a quick errand. - All dogs sleep in separate crates. We have crates of all sizes including a walk in kennel for our giant breeds - We do not host any MALE pure-bred German Shepherds (unfortunately, we have had too many bad experiences with males of this breed being too dominant). Female German Shepards are welcome. *** All dogs over 1.5-years old must be fixed*** - We do not accept dogs that howl or cry in their crates - We are unable to host dogs that have high anxiety.

Drop-In Visits • Jan 07, 2026

Janessa was the best dog sitter I have ever used and would highly recommend. I will be rebooking in the future. She made the time away very not worrysome. We meet with her prior and she had a lot of experience. Very friendly and professional. Got along with our animals and truly has love for animals. I had a last minute change to my schedule as I was on vacation and she was very accommodating. She send a lot of pictures of her visits and the family loved seeing our animals while we were away. She even was kind enough to cook some sweet treats for our dog, that he loved. Janessa is very trustworthy and dependable. Thanks Janessa

Janessa is very sweet and my dogs already love her. We did a meet and greet and it went so well I hired her immediately. She then watched them for a trial run for an afternoon and I was sent numerous pictures and I could tell the dogs were very well cared for. Plenty of naps, plenty of playtime. Dara

janessa was absolutely AMAZING. she watched our pup for a week while we explored mount rainier, and was extremely flexible with pickup/drop off times, as well as when we needed to add a couple extra nights! she sent many photos and videos which is amazing and treated our dog like family, and she had such a blast. communicating was also a breeze, and she responded almost immediately every single time i had a question or wanted to check in. i 100% recommend Janessa to everyone, and will absolutely use her again

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am a retired Army Vet so I am already at home with my dogs, so I figured why not have a few doggo friends over! Since I know exactly what I would want for my 4 dogs, I take care of them like my own✨ from eating breakfast & dinner together to playing outside or inside when it’s too cold!

Safety, trust & environment

I also make sure to take lots of photos and videos when I can so I can send them to their parents! I know when I’m away from my dogs I would love to get random photos of them playing or even sleeping! When I do drop ins, I always make sure to play with them or give them attention so they know they are loved & their parents will be home soon! 💛 I do make sure the home is better than it was left!

Pets

A typical day

I try my best to keep the doggos active even on the rainy days! We go on walks to playing in the house or even just having a lick mat to keep them busy! Especially having 4 dogs, they also can keep themselves busy with playing together!
