In need of some new dog friends
Pet care experience
Hi there! The first thing people will tell you about me is that I LOVE DOGS! Unfortunately, I cannot own my own dog at the moment, but I’m constantly asking my friends to let their dogs come stay with me so I can get my pup fix in! I would do this for free if I could  I have an extensive background in pet care starting with my college degree studying animal biology at UC Davis. I then worked for two years as a veterinary assistant, so I’m able to care for dogs that may need medications, wound care, or even nail trimming! I also worked at a dog daycare, so I have experience with many different breed types: from large to small, from active to lazy, I love them all! Some of my favorite dog friends are Rhodesian ridgebacks, pitbulls, vizslas, and maltese mixes. I live a fairly active lifestyle and like to bring dogs along on lots of adventures. I enjoy outdoor activities such as running, swimming, backpacking, and climbing. However, if your dog is a homebody, I’m an expert snuggler as well. I live in Fair Oaks, so I’m able to take your dog out along the river trail, or to any nearby parks for long walks and exercise.
Reviews
A BIG THANK YOU to Janine for walking Lola this evening on such late notice. After you brought Lola back she came in got s drink of water jumped up on the couch, put a pillow over her head, and went right to sleep. I will be contacting you again in the near future. Thanks again for the GREAT experience on Rover.

Safety, trust & environment
I currently live in Fair oaks in which I’m approximately 10mins away from the American river trail. I’m more than willing to provide walks along the trail, at any of the Sacramento dog parks or any surrounding parks.
Information Janine R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the dog’s general personality to have an idea of how I should act/react around your dog. If your dog is quite skittish, it would be nice to know ahead of time in order to decide which activities/walking routes would be appropriate for your dog.
A typical day
I live minutes away from the river and the American river trail so long walks can be a nice form of exercise there. I also live near a dog park in which frequent visits can be made if your dog is comfortable around other dogs. Hiking is one of my regular activities in which Auburn and Desolation wilderness trails are visited frequently, with your permission I would love to bring your furry companion on any hikes I have planned.
Services
Janine can watch in your home
Availability
My work schedule is very flexible and accommodating as I’m home fulltime 3-4 days a week to take care of your fur baby. Of course, I’m happy to send you pictures and updates while your dog is in my care, so that everyone is enjoying their vacations. I can’t wait to meet your good boy or girl!
