Pet care experience

Local RN and lifelong animal lover

With over a decade of experience as a nurse and a lifetime of loving and caring for animals, I bring compassion, reliability, and attention to detail to every pet I care for. My own cat, Mellie, is 11 years old and has been my travel buddy across the country on countless assignments – so I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. Whether your pet needs belly rubs, a calm presence, or someone confident giving medications or handling special needs, I’m here to help. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, affection, and plenty of love. Let me know how I can make your time away easier for both you and your pet!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, I treat both your animals and your space with the same care and respect I give my own. Whether it’s cats, dogs, or both, I follow your routine closely to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible—feeding, walks or playtime, medications, litter scooping, cleanup, and all the love and attention your pet needs while you're away. I’m also happy to bring in your mail, water plants, and keep an eye on your home to give you peace of mind. As a nurse, I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and understand the importance of trust when someone is caring for what matters most to you.

In the time that I have known Janie I have personally seen her be an amazing mom to her cat Mellie, as well as love and care for many friends fur babies. Janie loves to be active so you can be assured that your animals would get equal parts love and attention as well as long walks. She would be a dependable and attentive person to look after your babies!

Janie has always been a very responsible pet owner! In the time I have known her I have personally seen her be an amazing mom to her cat Mellie, while also caring for other friends cats and dogs. Janie loves to be active so you can be sure your dogs would get great exercise and love , while your cats would probably get great snuggles. She would love nothing more to help look after your fur babies!
