Highlights
Pet care experience
Experience foster for local rescues
I’m an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver with over 14 years of fostering dogs through two local rescue organizations. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all different personalities, ages, sizes, and needs, giving me plenty of experience helping pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Your pets aren’t just animals in my care—they’re family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they are safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet as I would want someone to treat my own. One of my biggest strengths is my extreme flexibility. I understand that life doesn’t always go according to schedule, and I’m happy to work with your routine and your pet’s individual needs. Whether you need a last-minute change, an unusual schedule, or care that requires a little extra time and attention, I’ll do my best to accommodate you.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
With J’s 10+ years of experience fostering dogs, I can think of no better person to trust my dog with. Jitka is dependable, punctual, and above all, caring. Jitka truly understands the needs of each dog and always gives her 100%!
Over the years, Judy has shown an immense amount of care, compassion, responsibility, and love towards the animals that have been in her care. I have seen her care for many dogs over the years including my own, and every time she has treated them as if they were her own. I trust her with my dogs, and dogs that have a wide variety of backgrounds and needs. No matter what your pet requires, they will be in the best of hands with Judy!
Jitka has taken care of my dogs on many occasions, and I have always found her to be incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and caring. She consistently goes above and beyond to make sure they are well looked after and comfortable. She is naturally great with dogs, and mine absolutely love her—they are always excited to see her! I have complete confidence leaving my dogs in her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals.
I have known Jitka ("Judy") for almost 15 years. She has been a trusted foster mom for my dog rescue, and has foster-failed by adopting several times. She provides excellent care, and is well versed in behaviors to know when to segregate her charges and rotate them for outside time as needed. She has a wonderful set-up - a huge (almost an acre) yard, fully fenced with a privacy fence. I would whole-heartedly recommend her as a sitter.

Schedule
I’m self-employed and work from home, which gives me an extremely flexible schedule and allows me to be available for your pets throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9-to-5 work schedule, I can easily adjust my day around your pet’s needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. Working from home also means your pet can have plenty of attention and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods of time.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in your home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, likes, dislikes, and individual needs, and I do my best to keep their normal schedule so they feel at ease while you’re away. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, affection, and companionship, while also respecting pets who prefer a little quiet time and space. When staying in my home, pets have access to my fully fenced-in yard with over an acre of space and a privacy fence, giving them plenty of room to safely explore, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. I love giving dogs the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors while still having a secure and supervised environment to come back to.
