Dog Walking Tacketts Mill

About: I have been taking care of the animals of close friends and family since I was 19 years old. In addition to taking care of cats and dogs, I am also an experienced farm hand. I have taken care of horses, chickens, donkeys, and Alpacas. Whatever your pet needs are, I can do it. I am currently doing volunteer work on Tuesdays, but am available every other day of the week. Early mornings and afternoons work best for me, but I am available later in the evening when needed I can do feedings, walks, drop ins, and full night stays. I can also administer oral medication. I have a dog of my own and she gets daily medication I give her myself.

“Jordyn is a Rockstar and goes over and above when caring for my Bloodhound puppy. I highly recommend her.”

“My pup Draconi loves his time with Dayonna. She truly cares and really gives him love when she picks him up. His tail wiggles when she arrives, are outta control, and he is so excited to see her. I highly recommend Dayonna. She is communicative, keeps you up to date on the walk, and sends photos, too. Don't miss an opportunity for your furbaby to get the best attention.”

I work part time primarily early mornings (genuinely five am to like 10 am) and watching movies is my favourite hobby so there is nothing I love more than sitting with a pet and watching one If there is one thing working at a farm has taught me it is having a lot of patience for animals and of course how to follow instructions really well.
