While I do work, your pup will still be my top priority during their stay! I structure my day to make sure your fur baby receives the attention, love, and routine they deserve. We go on multiple daily walks—typically four total, including two longer ones lasting 45 minutes to an hour. There’s always time for play in the evenings, belly rubs, and a relaxing wind-down before bed. I’m available for boarding and will work with you to accommodate your pup’s specific needs and schedule so they feel right at home while you’re away! 🐾 🐶💛

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness come first! I have two small, friendly dogs who love meeting new furry friends and help create a playful, welcoming environment. All pups in my care are free to roam the house and are never confined to one area—unless you provide a crate and prefer your dog follows a specific routine. I do my best to match your pet’s home habits so they feel safe, relaxed, and loved during their stay.

A typical day
A typical day with me is full of love, activity, and tail wags! I love keeping your fur baby active and happy during their stay. We go on multiple walks throughout the day—morning, afternoon, and evening—ranging from quick 10-minute potty breaks to longer neighborhood strolls lasting 45 minutes to an hour (especially in the late afternoon or evening when it’s cooler). At home, we play with a variety of doggy toys—tug-of-war and fetch are always fan favorites! In the evening, we wind down with calm, comforting routines: lots of praise (“You’re such a good boy/girl!”), rubs or gentle brushing, a bedtime snack, and plenty of water always available.

Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m Jizelle (that’s my middle name 😊), and I’m so excited to virtually meet you and your fur baby! I have hands-on experience with all kinds of dogs—from sweet cocker spaniels to strong, loving pitbulls, and everything in between. I’m also no stranger to a full house—I regularly walk a pack of six between my parents’ four dogs and my two, so I’m confident handling multiple pups at once. I know how much your dog means to you—mine are truly family—so I treat every pup I care for with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and make them feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away! 🐾💛
Reviews
Jizelle was great with my dog Paige! She sent me lots of pictures and checked in often. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter!! 😊
Paula watched my Oso for 9 days & I could not have asked for anyone better. We did an initial meet & greet with her two dogs who were friendly and playful. Paula followed all instructions: feedings, meds, leashes etc. she was very communicative keeping me up to date with multiple photos a day and tracking of their walks. Just above and beyond care! Super happy with the care given & cannot recommend her enough! 🐾💛
Paula was an exceptional rover! I had a last minute daycare request the evening prior and she accommodated for an early drop off. She gave my dog tons of exercise throughout the day which Miley loves, sent pics, and even gave fitness stats of the walks. My dog seemed content and received a take home treat when i picked her up. I recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter!
Paula was amazing!! She was great with updates - even including walk times and loads of cute pictures 🥰 Could not recommend her enough, will be rebooking!!
