Pet's Best Friend

I have had dogs since I was born, and I had cats while I was growing up as well. They are truly part of the family, and I will always treat them as such. Friends, neighbors, and others have relied on me to care for their pets in various circumstances. I also have base access.

Jonita is AMAZING! She was able to watch our pup on such short notice and took great care of him! She was attentive, communicative, and sent us the most thoughtful updates and photos! Couldn’t recommend her enough! :)

Jonita did a great job caring for our two active and slightly needy dogs! They were both properly worn out when we got home.

Jo has watched Coco overnight before so when our normal daytime walker was unavailable it was easy to reach back out! So glad we could get on her schedule, Coco was well taken care of!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and a friendly doggo to keep yours company while they are here. I can also crate your pet if needed. My time spent with your pet will be full of snuggles, love, and playtime so they know they are loved and safe.

Pets

A typical day

I pay attention to each dog's energy and comfortability levels. If your dog prefers short walks where no other animals are around, we can do that. If they prefer to romp around in a dog park or splash in a pond, we can do that too. Tug-o-war and fetch are also great ways to keep them entertained.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Jonita can host up to 3 pets per night
Please let me know if there are any special considerations I need to make for your pet including their temperament, any allergies, and any medications that they are on. I want to ensure that we all have the best experience possible.
