Information Jobi J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about all of your pets special quirks. Ideally I like to make the environment fit them to ensure they feel safe and cared for. For example if your dog is anxious and needs a closet fort, or if they have special commands/phrases that get them excited for an activity. Whatever makes them special or silly or soothed, I'm here for it.

A typical day

Walks are always on the agenda. There are a few wooded trails nearby in addition to the endless amounts of sidewalks. I also have numerous puzzles for engagement if it's a rainy day where the dogs can be stimulated and earn treats.

Pet care experience

I'm a lifelong dog owner/lover who is also about a year and a half into learning how to be a cat mom. It's a pretty tight competition between my 8yo son and my 6yo beagle as to who loves dogs more. I work from home so if your pet doesn't like to be alone, that is not a problem. Walks and brushings are daily activities. Since the animals are allowed on the furniture the daily brushing is a must. Our cat has asthma and uses a daily inhaler, so if your pet also has medical issues/needs, they will fit right in. I've been petsitting for years for friends and family and would love to host your loved one as well.

As a crazy dog lady, I am highly particular about who I am willing to leave my dog with. Jobi is on that very short list (only alongside my parents and a friend of 30+ years who is an even crazier dog lady than I am). I completely trust Jobi to be attentive and caring for my (at times anxious) senior dog. Jobi truly enjoys the company of animals and will treat your pet like a member of the family during her time with them.

Jobi is an animal lover through and through. The thing I love about the way Jobi interacts with dogs, is that she is very in tune to what they need. She meets them where they’re at; if it’s an old dog, she gives them plenty of rest and just enough exercise. She has a great home for dogs as well. Her pets are very friendly and accustomed to having fur guests over for extended periods of time. Jobi is also very much a routine person, which I think helps the dogs adjust to a new temporary environment quickly… She never misses a walk, she never misses breakfast or dinner time by even five minutes. I highly recommend Jobi for your pet sitting needs. She will not disappoint, and your fur babies will want to come back!
