Experienced and Responsible!

Pet care experience

I love all animals! I have grown up with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, goats and pigs. Besides growing up with pets, my professional experience started with house sitting, working at 2 different doggie daycare/ boarding facilities, and then I have been a veterinary assistant for the last 3 years. I have learned a lot on how to read an animals body language and behavior in different settings. I have cared for animals of all ages, sizes, abilities, and personalities. I am Fear Free certified, which means I have learned how to evaluate a pets fear, anxiety and stress levels, and learned how to use different techniques to make them more comfortable and gain their trust.

Friendly, professional, and great with dogs! She treats them like her own and has a background in animal care. Couldn’t ask for your pets to be in better hands!

Janessa has long been our favorite pet sitter! Our fur babies always are happy to see her and we know she cares for them like they are her own. She is kind, thorough, and trustworthy. She will go the extra mile to make sure your animals are not only taken care of, but also genuinely loved!

Janessa is extremely caring and her passion and love for animals is apparent in her interactions with them. She is very reliable and trustworthy. I have two dogs that absolutely love her and it is very nice having peace of mind knowing that they are in good hands when they are in her care. Definitely recommend her to any pet owners out there looking for help!

Janessa is amazing and treats every animal like her own. She has cared for my dog in many capacities over the years and I never worry when she’s in her hands. She provides my dog with the utmost care, knowledge and affection. I cannot recommend her enough!
