Jordyn can care for
Availability
I'm currently a PhD student, but during the summer, all of my work is research-based and done remotely. That means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Pet care fits in naturally -- I love taking breaks from the computer to get outside, stretch my legs, and spend time with my dog (her name is Nahla). Walks and check-ins are easy to plan around my research, and I enjoy the balance it brings to my day.

About Jordyn W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I follow any routines or instructions closely -- whether that means feeding schedules, medications, crate time, or favorite walking routes. I always make sure pets have fresh water, get the exercise and attention they need, and feel relaxed while their people are away. In someone else’s home, I’m respectful of their space and aim to leave everything just as I found it. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos to give peace of mind. My goal is to make things as smooth and stress-free as possible for both pets and their humans
Information Jordyn W. would like to know about your pet
Before walking a dog, I like to know a few key things to help make the walk safe, smooth, and enjoyable. It’s important to understand their temperament (like if they react negatively to other dogs, loud noises, or strangers). I also ask about any health concerns, injuries, or medications I should be aware of. Knowing their usual walking routine, preferred pace, favorite routes, and whether they have any triggers (like squirrels or bikes!) helps me tailor the walk to their needs. I always want to make sure your dog feels comfortable and has a fun, relaxed experience every time we head out.
A typical day
It depends on the pet’s personality and routine, but I always aim to make our time together fun and enriching! For dogs, that might mean long walks, playtime with favorite toys, gentle training games, or exploring new smells on a sniff-friendly route. If the dog loves fetch or tug-of-war, I’m all in! For more relaxed pups, I’m happy to keep things calm with cuddles, brushing, or quiet companionship.

Caring Walks for Your Best Friend
Pet care experience
I've loved dogs and cats since I was nine, when I got (or made my parents get) my first doggo (Nahla). Later on, I snuck a kitten from my aunts hobby farm into our car, and he’s stayed with us ever since (Vinnie). Nahla and Vinnie are such love bugs, and I absolutely love animals of all kinds (yes, I even have four pet spiders). While I’m new to dog walking/pet sitting as a formal side-job, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog/cat and those of my extended family. I’m reliable, respectful, and attentive to each animals unique needs and routine, whether that means a calm stroll, pets, or an energetic adventure. I understand that your dog/cat is part of your family, and I treat every walk (drop-in) with that level of care. I’m happy to provide updates, follow instructions closely, and make sure your dog/cat feels safe, loved, and happy every step of the way.
