Highlights
Pet care experience
A grandma’s love for your pet!
Hi, I’m Jolene. I have over 40 years taking care of pets, both my own, and for friends and family. I’m recently retired and just getting started—nothing brings me more joy than spending time with animals. Communication is important to me and I’m happy to send updates and photos of your pet while you’re away!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Privacy and security is very important to me. I worked in banking for over 29 years with access to sensitive information. I am very respectful of other people’s homes and environments.
Ratings and reviews
Jolene is yet again, such a thoughtful and generous sitter! She took great care of my baby dog! Thanks again Jolene!

Jolene is magic! Our little rescue dog is scared of people, but he warmed up to Jolene right away! We could tell they got along great from the pictures she sent. When we returned home after her first few hours with him, he let her pet him, he didn't bark at het at all, and (to my amazement) he even brought a ball to her so she could throw it for him! She's a wonderful dog sitter!

Jolene was an absolute delight to have for our sitter! We are so happy with clear communication, GREAT photos while gone, and a cleaner house to return to than when we left! Amazing.

Jolene went above and beyond not only during her housesit but beforehand also, she came to familiarize herself with our home and dogs as they are both rescues with behavioral issues especially with walking on leash. She took such wonderful care of our beloveds! I highly recommend Jolene and will definitely ask her back! Even bought dog beds and toys for them!


Jolene went above and beyond as a dog sitter! She clearly cares so much for animals and showered our pets with care!

Jolene was a dream come true. She went above and beyond. She took care of our little one as if it were her own dog. She kept us updated with lots of pictures. She was responsible and meticulous about every detail. We're already signed up to use her again! Highly, highly recommend.
