Pet care experience

Your pet is like family to me!

Reliable, grounded, and genuinely caring. With experience, maturity, and a calm approach, I provide dependable care you can feel confident in. I’m attentive, intentional, and big on communication, so you’ll always get clear updates and quick responses. I take pet care seriously — but I still love what I do. 😊

Janine is a fantastic house/pet sitter. She’s everything you want and need in the person you’re entrusting with your fur babies. Reliable, sent photos everyday, worked to established trust with the animals (our cat is difficult to warm up to and Janine succeeded quickly). Everything was better than expected. We will definitely hire her again.

This was the first time I left my Fiona with someone else, and I couldn’t be happier! Janine gave me everyday photos and updates on how Fiona was doing. I would 100% book with her again.

Janine did a fantastic job caring for my two cats! She obviously loves animals and is very patient with them. One of my babies is diabetic and needs insulin injections. I felt very comfortable leaving her in Janine's capable, experienced hands! Janine was able to come in twice a day to ensure that both of my kitties were well fed and cared for. She sent messages and photo updates, which was so reassuring. Both Pookie and Chica told me they want Janine to come back again. 😉

Safety, trust & environment

For everyone’s comfort, my elderly cat will be kept fully separated during care in my home. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood and am happy to provide plenty of walks. I prioritize keeping schedules consistent to reduce stress, and I understand that many pets are most comfortable staying in their own home.

Pets

A typical day

I love to walk so taking your pup - or even your cat! - on a walk is not a chore for me. I can also loaf around on a couch with your pet if that's what they like! I love to play fetch, give plenty of belly rubs, and just plain ol' have fun!
