Pet care experience
Growing up with animals all of my life really nurtured my desire to care for them. I even thought about becoming a veterinarian at one point! However, I realized that spending full and meaningful days with animals would be even more rewarding. As a freelance software engineer who works remotely, I have a lot of time and flexibility to dedicate towards my passion for animals. I love to run and be outside, so having a sidekick or two to adventure with is my favorite way to spend a day! I have many years of experience caring for animals of all kinds and I would be thrilled to share some of that know-how and experience with you and your pups! I look forward to hearing from you!

In 13 yrs. I never let anyone except my ex-husband care for my beloved Pekingese (Mimi) but when a death in the family forced my ex and me to be out of town together, I reluctantly entrusted Jodi with Mimi's care. Due to Mimi's advanced age and temperament, I left very particular instructions about her dietary needs, how she is to be walked due to hip dysplasia issues, etc. and Jodi rose to the challenge with flying colors! She is very organized, prompt and responsible, and is always communicative with updates. When I returned from the week-long trip, I expected my usually anxious dog to be hysterical with excitement but to my amazement, Mimi was calm, happy and what appeared to be slightly reluctant to leave her new environment. Needless to say, I would unhesitatingly recommend Jodi, my new dog whisperer!

Not only is Jodi my sister, but she has cared for my own beloved pooch many times, as I travel frequently for work. There's no one I would trust more! She has so much energy and I've seen her intuitively adapt to the individual needs of each dog, which is one of the reasons I think she is such a great caretaker. Her love of dogs is obvious, and I can't recommend her enough!

Information Jodi D. would like to know about your pet
Is the dog house-trained? What kind of behaviors does the dog exhibit when anxious, happy, etc.? Does the dog have any special health or dietary needs? Does the dog have any particular behavioral issues to be aware of? No breed preferences.
A typical day
I currently live in Downtown Dallas, in close proximity to many dog parks and green spaces. I usually take my own pup to Deep Ellum dog park, Mutts Cantina, or White Rock Lake. I can meet any level of activity. If the dog is a senior and needs gentle play, or if the dog wants to sprint for miles, I can accommodate it all!
