Information Janette W. would like to know about your pet

If there’s anything that makes them reactive whether it's food, leash, people, or dog reactive just so I can make sure to avoid any possible problems.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I love going on hiking trails and there are many grassy areas around my home to walk dogs. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Where ever you would like. On the bed, in the room, in a crate, where ever is best and most comfortable. Time I'll spend with your dog As much as you would like. Time I'll spend with your dog As much as the owner would like me to, I would not mind spending all day with the dog(s).

13+ yrs on rover & Animal Degree

Pet care experience

I graduated from SIU with a Bachelors in Animal Science pre vetmed in 2013 and was recently the Hospital & Medical Program Manager of a no-kill animal shelter until ‘13-‘21. I am now an Animal Services Manager and have a wife who works from home fulltime who’s also on Rover and is happy to help care for cats or dogs if I’m at work 5 mins away. Previously, I was a lead surgical veterinary technician, foster coordinator, intake coordinator, and adoptions manager at the no-kill shelter for 8+ years, and would love to help out by caring and giving your pet my undivided attention! I specialize in special needs. I am confident caring for elderly, immobile, sick, and fearful/reactive, pets that require medication or special attention. I'm very responsible, respectful, trustworthy, and hard working. Good for last minutes stays or plan changes if you need an extra day or so that would be no problem. It'd be my pleasure to spend time with your pup(s)! While working with dogs my entire life I'm sure I'd be the perfect match for you and your pet!

She did an amazing job with my cat. He’s usually very shy, but he warmed up to her surprisingly quickly. She kept me updated throughout the entire visit and sent lots of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell he was well cared for, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!
