I have cared for and owned dogs since I was a child. I have been pet sitting for neighbors, family and friends for many years and enjoy the company of dogs. I recently lost my 16 year old rescue dog and while not ready to own a dog right now I would enjoy caring for yours.

Janice provided excellent care to our dog over the holiday. He seems to really enjoy her company. Would highly recommend Janice and would use her services again.

Janice and her sister cared for our pampered pooch for almost 10 days. He had never stayed with her before and we were concerned about leaving him - especially for such a long time. Thankfully, our fears were never realized, as Janice quickly bonded with our boy, and loved on him like we would have. Janice is calm, loving and flexible with caring for pets as extended members of her family. We will not hesitate to again call on this doggie angel 🐾😇🐾 whenever our travel plans require our dog to be separated from us. It was a wonderful experience.

I worried that my aging and somewhat anxious mixed breed small dog would not be happy with a sitter I had not used before. Janice was great with my dog. I would be happy to have her keep my fur baby again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while we were on vacation! Being 3,000 miles away, you can imagine how nerve-wracking it is to leave our little fur baby, Cash, behind. But from the very start, we had complete peace of mind knowing he was in the best hands. Janice went above and beyond, keeping us updated with photos and messages so we never had to wonder how Cash was doing. It was clear he was not only well cared for but also happy, relaxed, and getting all the love and attention he’s used to at home. It’s rare to find someone you can trust completely with your pet, and we are beyond grateful to have found them. If you’re looking for a responsible, caring, and all-around amazing dog sitter, look no further. We highly, highly recommend, Janice!

Janice is an amazing dog sitter who took great care of my senior dog, Sasha. She was attentive, kind, and went above and beyond to make Sasha feel comfortable. It was easy to communicate with Janice which gave me peace of mind. Sasha was happy and well cared for. I Highly recommend Janice.

Schedule

I’m retired, very flexible and easy to reach if you need immediate care for your pet. I’m willing to do long term care including weekend if needed. I enjoy walks with pets either short or long according to their needs. I also have a play area available. Sitting with your pet in my favorite chair or relaxing on the sofa would be part of everyday.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets are treated like family in my home. I’m happy to share my favorite reading spot and even a spot in my bed for a fun overnight.

A typical day

I enjoy walking and playing outdoors with your pet. Chuck it is a favorite game at l my house. I’m pretty good with a frisbee too. If your dog prefers indoor play or a screened area I have that!
