Highlights
Pet care experience
13+ yrs on rover & Animal Degree
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!

Ratings and reviews
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!

Amazing Job with our dog Bandit. Thank you Janette for making Bandit feels at home and for taking good care of him. I really appreciate it. We will definitely consider your service in the future. Thank you again:🥰

We've worked with Janette before. She's our only choice to take care of our cats when we go on holiday!

Loved the pictures of Zara that she sent me. Made my heart happy

Excellent care and communication. Janette was welcoming to both my daughter, myself and Angel. They kept us up to date on my dog’s activity and I felt great about using their services. I would most definitely re book.

I had a great experience with this sitter! She took amazing care of my dog and made the whole process stress free. I really appreciated the updates and photos, it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. My dog can be a slightly energetic but she handled him and everything so well and made sure he was comfortable and cared for. I would absolutely book with them again!

Safety, trust & environment
Why I love dog sitting Since I was born grew up with many dogs, cats, small animals, and reptiles. I love animals and have been working at my no kill shelter for several years as a surgical vet tech and couldn't be happier saving so many lives.

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).
