Veterinary Experience!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I am currently the Executive Director of our local animal shelter. Prior to that position I worked at a spay/neuter vet clinic for 5 years in Indianapolis. Total animal welfare experience of over 10 years! I would be glad to stop by your house to care for your pets while you are at work/vacation or take your dog for a walk. While I am unable to stay overnight at your house while you are away for an extended period of time, I am willing to stop by several times during the day and before bed to care for your house and animals! I am very experienced in handling all different types of dogs (and kitties). I have bathing experience and am trained in giving medications. I would be happy to show off my impressive resume :) Additionally, I have two dogs of my own, two cats, and 3 children. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover ever since I can remember. I can remember begging my mom if I could pet every dog we passed on the street, emptying out my piggy bank every month for the local animal shelter, and writing all my school reports on dogs. Throughout school I was a volunteer at local shelters, in college I was the student Volunteer Coordinator for the local shelter, and now I work as the Director of our local shelter! Dogs (and cats) are my life! My experience administering medication Yep. I have lots of experience.

Thanks so much for taking care of Jewel! She really is a challenge at times!!! She appeared very happy & I love being home again with her! I was very relaxed leaving her in your care & able to stay home in her environment!

This is the first time we have used Janet and she was great! She came over for a meet and greet with our dog and puppy a couple days before. We very much appreciated her thorough summary of the visit. We definitely hope to use her again!
