Experienced Pet Care Professional

Hey busy pet parents! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 8 years of combined animal shelter and dog walking experience. I'm currently the proud owner of one senior kitty, and have almost always owned dogs. As someone who has worked with many dogs and cats with varying degrees of energy, excitability and anxiety, I hope to do everything in my toolbelt to keep things as lively, entertaining and cozy for them as possible while their human is away. My approach is positive-reinforcement based and minimally intrusive. I prefer not to force an interaction with pets that need time to get to know me; I let them come to me on their own terms. ~I am comfortable taking care of small animals and certain exotics. (I’m a former rabbit mom.) ~If you have a pet with more challenging behaviors, please don’t hesitate to message me about it. Let’s discuss if care is possible and how I can best offer support to your pet. ~I am comfortable administering medications, whether they are oral, nasal, ocular, aural (ear) or subcutaneous injectable. ~If you need your plants watered or your mail brought in, just let me know! I’ve got some 20-something house plants at home that I’ve managed to keep healthy. I believe that pets deserve the very best and refuse to offer anything less. Feel free to drop me a message if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and yours!

Grateful for Jayne’s help with a short sit on relatively short notice. I really appreciated that she spent quality time with my pup and stayed until close to my return, especially given my dog’s nervousness about lingering fireworks. She also sent helpful updates. Thanks, Jayne!

Jayne was an amazing sitter! She was very communicative, sent great updates and photos, and took wonderful care of our home. Would rebook her again any time!

Jayne watched our two dogs for three nights while we were out of town. One of our dogs is anxious and takes some time to warm up to new people but Jayne didn’t bat an eye during the meet and greet. It’s clear she has experience handling a wide variety of temperaments and Winnie warmed up to her quickly. We came home to two very happy dogs and a clean house. Grateful to have found a trustworthy person who seems to enjoy connecting with a variety of doggy personalities.

My girls had such a great weekend with Jayne. They were so perky when I got home. Plus Jayne was incredibly flexible and really helped us out in a pinch. Thank you!!

This is the second time we had Jayne stay with our dogs and once again everything went very smoothly! It's so great not to have to worry while we are away! The pups were happy and the house was clean upon our return- thank you Jayne!

Do let me know if there are certain distastes or idiosyncrasies specific to your pet. I like to know if I'm petting them the wrong way, feeding them in a place they're not used to, or if they're reactive to other dogs on walks, for example. Some owners like to print out care instructions, especially if there's a complex feeding/medication routine. I personally find this very helpful!
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.
