Pet care experience

Professional guardianship 24/7.

I have cared for and owned dogs and cats of all ages for 40+ years and am well experienced at administering many types of medication, except injections. Since my beautiful shepherd Kiros passed away, I have decided to make looking after your pets and home the very best semi-retired job I can imagine. When I work for you, it is my only job. Being kind, reliable and trustworthy is of the utmost importance. My commitment to you: • I remain on-site 24/7 (Except for pet outings or rare brief appointments) • I do not host guests. • I bring my own personal consumable supplies. • I will take your dog(s) on adventures, if permitted. My vehicle is outfitted for safety. • I leave your home clean and linens freshly laundered.

Janine is fantastic! She is professional, reliable, and always go above and beyond when caring for our pets and home. We have complete peace of mind while we're away. As an added bonus, we always come home to a sparkling clean house. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter!

We are so pleased to have found Janine! Our doodle absolutely loves her. Shes so invested in taking care of him, walking him and snuggling him. It makes leaving him at home so much easier for us. We highly recommend her!

Janine went above and beyond for our high maintenance girl! From including her in her families Christmas plans to cleaning our house and making it spotless for our return home. I couldn’t recommend her enough, especially if you have a dog with high maintenance needs.

Janine has cared for my dog Sioux like she was her own. We had her stay with Janine while we travelled out of country and never had a worry about her care. For many years Sioux was included in the lovely long woods walks that Janine would initiate. If you want someone who your dog will love and you will too Janine is your person.

Schedule

While house sitting your home and caring for your pet(s), your animals are my #1 priority. I will ensure their daily routine is kept and they are exercised regularly. You can be sure your home will be just as you left it, or better, when you return. Grooming appointments, garbage taken out, mail collected, plants watered ... I am happy to complete whatever YOUR required tasks may be.

Janine can host up to 1 pet per night
It's always a good thing to write down the pets feeding and medication schedules. Commands and habits are very helpful to know. And of course any allergies or triggers are important to be aware of to keep them safe. I also like to have the vet name and number and at least one personal emergency contact.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
