About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life — growing up with dogs and cats taught me not just how to care for them, but how to truly understand them. For the past 7 years, I worked as a personal assistant, and part of my role included caring for clients’ pets — from daily walks to feeding, driving to appointments, and giving them plenty of love and attention. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to two dogs and two cats, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I’m experienced with dogs and cats of all ages, including energetic puppies and independent seniors, and I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. What sets me apart is my combination of professional reliability and genuine affection for animals. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for — whether that means an energetic walk, a calm cuddle session, or keeping up with special routines. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine. I’m flexible and can accommodate walks, visits, or overnight stays on weekdays and weekends. Since I have a flexible schedule, I’m available to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular potty breaks, playtime, and meals. Whether it’s a quick midday walk or longer sessions, I make sure every pet feels loved and cared for according to their individual needs. I take pet safety and trust very seriously, whether caring for pets in my home or theirs. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and secure, with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I make sure all pets feel comfortable and safe by maintaining familiar routines and giving them plenty of supervision. When visiting a client’s home, I follow all their instructions carefully and treat their space and pets with the utmost respect. I’m attentive to any special needs, health concerns, or behavioral cues to ensure every pet feels calm and cared for. Open communication with pet owners is important to me — I provide regular updates and am always available to address any questions or concerns to give owners peace of mind.
“This was my first time using Rover, and also my first time having someone come into my home to care for my puppy, Kylie. Jodi’s experience and expertise with puppies put us at ease right away. She made us feel completely comfortable and did a fantastic job. We’ll definitely be booking her more often to take care of Kylie!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Devon! From the very beginning, her communication has been exceptional. She provides timely updates, detailed notes, and even sends photos from each walk, which gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is in great hands. Beyond being reliable and professional, Devon truly cares about the dogs she walks. My dog Tucker absolutely adores her. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and amazing with dogs, I highly recommend Devon. She makes my life so much easier, and I’m so grateful to have found her!”

This job included a lot of patience and required a lot of passion for pet care. I gained a lot of quality experience caring for dogs of many breeds. To this day it has been one of the more fulfilling jobs I've ever had. In addition to that, I grew up with a dog (half poodle, half bichon frise) who lived until 16.
