Safety, trust & environment
I live in a 750sq ft apartment, am an attentive caretaker, and will always leash your dog on a walk, run, or hike. I’m able to crate your dog if needed, and will always look for ways to provide a safe and comfortable environment for both you and your companion. I’ll send plenty of updates and pictures throughout the day to meet your preference.

Information Janie S. would like to know about your pet
Please provide me any medical information and details I should know ahead of time :) including: • Feeding schedule and amounts • Preferred walking routes • Commands and anything you’re working on • Prey drive if notable • Notable anxiety triggers (scissors, locations, sounds, water) • Notable aggression triggers (other dogs, cats, children)
A typical day
I love to adapt to your pup’s needs and will provide indoor or outdoor activities to best suit their personality and stage in life. For high energy dogs, I love to play a healthy variety of fetch, tug of war, hide and seek, sniff and find challenges, chase/tag, and agility activities. For more chill or senior dogs, I like to play relaxing music or dog TV, belly rubs, provide a lick mat, chew toys, and variety of treats.

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m a caring, reliable, and communicative petsitter and UX designer by day. Caring for animals and seeing them happy brings me so much joy! I’m committed to always finding ways to make both you and your loved companion have a stellar experience :) I love animals and have cared for them most of my life and have volunteered in many animal shelters and cared for dogs, cats, horses, and barn animals for years. I miss living with furry companions and would love to spend quality time with yours! I know leaving your family member with a stranger can be daunting - I provide plenty of updates to help you feel at ease knowing your companion is in good hands and having a great walk or play session :) I truly love caring for animals and take pride in being highly attentive, communicative, friendly, and adaptive to your pet’s needs. I have experience helping: • High energy dogs with enriching activities and exercise (running, fetch, agility) • Senior dogs with adaptive care (step ladders, ramps, or raised food bowls). • Osteoarthritic companions with heat therapy • Anxious dogs with gentle exposure and positive reinforcement • Separation anxiety in dogs with a variety mental stimulation, toys, puzzles, and soothing music Feel free to message me with any questions — I’m looking forward to getting to know your puppy or kitty!

Reviews
Janie is a phenomenal sitter. She kept my furry son happy and was the best company for him and also took many pictures while I was away🥹 I recommend her!! 10/10 job
We cannot leave enough great feedback about Janie and how well she took care of our Millie. She was punctual, communicated well, and loved her like her own pet. She truly relieved my dog dad anxiety. I wish the rating had a sixth star. Janie is the best! Would absolutely repeat.
Janie went above and beyond with our dog Jackson. She was sweet, patient, gentle and really gave Jackson an incredible experience. Never had a better boarding experience. Incredible
Janie was the sweetest and easiest sitter to work with! She left detailed notes, kept us updated, and gave our dog so much playtime and attention. We felt completely comfortable and would absolutely book with her again.
