D&J Doggie Getaway

I’ve grown up with dogs around since I was a very little girl, I’ve experienced having small dogs, Medium-sized, and Large Dogs. My Mom bred Maltese so I got to constantly play with many adorable puppies and help bathe them too. My husband, has had about 8 years of experience with animals. He helped me with raising 10 puppies, a litter from our own dog Tyndale. Our whole family absolutely loves dogs! We’d love to meet and play with your puppy too!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 04, 2026

Jarica and family took wonderful care to make our shy dog comfortable. Thankful for the peace of mind knowing that our dog had some play time while we attended an event. When in the area visiting friends in the future we will book with Jarica again. Loved the photos and the sight of our dog with little girls coming back from a walk!

I highly recommend Jarica as a dog sitter. She has a lifelong love for animals and a lot of experience caring for many different types, she treats every pet with patience and kindness. She is incredibly compassionate, attentive, and responsible, and she treats animals like they are part of her family. One example is when she helped her dog deliver a large litter of puppies. She stayed up through the night and woke up consistently to bottle feed them, making sure each one was safe and cared for. That level of commitment and love is just who she is. As an elementary teacher, she’s also used to caring for and managing 20 + kids at a time, which speaks to her responsibility, reliability, and ability to handle anything that comes her way. She is calm, capable, and deeply nurturing. She’s also great with communication! Anyone would be lucky to have her care for their pets. I would trust her completely with any animal, knowing they would be safe, loved, and very well taken care of.

I grew up with Jarica and she was always known and looked to as the responsible one you can count on. She has a very tender spot for animals. Shes had them her whole life. She's really easy to work with and is really helpful. I would recommend her to anyone!

Jarica has watched our dog several times and always does such a great job! She will text us pictures and updates throughout the day to let us know that our dog is doing well. Our dog got along great with their dog too! They had a lot of fun playing together in their fenced backyard. It helps us feel comfortable knowing that our dog is in good hands while we are away.

I am pleased to provide this professional reference for Jarica. She consistently demonstrates honesty, responsibility, reliability, and a strong work ethic. She is someone who can be trusted to follow through on commitments and provide dependable care for both people and animals. Jarica has a genuine passion for animal care and treats pets as valued members of the family. She approaches every animal with kindness, patience, and compassion, taking the time to understand and attend to their individual needs. Over the years, Jarica has gained hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, turtles, lizards, sugar gliders, guinea pigs, farm pigs, horses, fish, gerbils, hamsters, parrots, and parakeets. She has also helped raise and care for puppies. Her experience includes feeding, grooming, exercising, cleaning habitats, providing basic care, and ensuring animals remain safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I confidently recommend Jarica for pet-sitting and animal-care opportunities. Pet owners can feel assured that their animals will receive attentive, responsible, and compassionate care in her hands. Sincerely Jarilyn Schwab

I can’t recommend Jarica enough! She’s been around animals her entire life and has cared for just about every kind of pet imaginable, from dogs and cats to horses, pigs, chickens, turtles, fish, you name it. Animals seem to naturally trust and gravitate toward her (she’s an incredibly gentle and patient person so it’s easy to see why). Jarica provides a safe, welcoming environment where pets are treated like family. She has a fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play, and she makes sure every pet has their own space to feel comfortable and secure. Her whole family loves animals, so pets get lots of attention, affection and care while they’re there. Beyond that, she’s incredibly responsible, reliable, and responsive. Whether your pet needs a specific feeding schedule, medication, extra exercise, or just a little extra love, she’ll make sure they’re well cared for and keep you updated along the way. Many of us already trust Jarica with our pets without a second thought. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for their animals as if they were her own!
