About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. I own 2 dogs now, a lab/blue heeler/great Dane mix, as well as a daschund. The best of both worlds! I really respect and understand dogs. I am a college student and I work as a medical intern, but I am looking for something else to branch out in as well for my free time. I have my own 2 cats and 2 dogs, and I have availability from 3 pm-10pm in the afternoon on M, T, R, F. Saturdays, I can help out 5-10pm. I have open availability on Sundays. I offer a regular feeding schedule, and several times going outside in the day to potty and play. I also am known for walking my dogs for miles upon miles! Its great for their mental and physical health, as well as mine!

About: Your pets are my own, and I can do basic training with most animals. I enjoy playing with all animals and walking them no matter what the weather is like so long as it’s safe for them. I enjoy soothing high anxiety animals and making them as comfortable as can be. As well as ensuring the best care possible for your four legged companion. I’m a mother of two toddlers, and they help me daily with getting the animals food and water and even with their baths. I enjoy caring for my fur babies with my actual babies and we make it a daily routine to get them outside to exercise! I have a privacy fenced in area and two sweet dogs that still get put up during the times I have clients over. I will care for each pet to the best of my abilities and take care of every item asked of me whether it be deep cleaning a litter box, or walking the dog in the hot sun. So long as it is safe to do so!

“I recently had the pleasure of using Jeanette for my diabetic kitty, Stella, and I couldn't be happier with the care provided. From the start, Jeanette was incredibly attentive and professional, ensuring that she understood Stella's special needs and medication schedule. During my time away, Jeanette kept me updated with regular photos and detailed messages about how Stella was doing, which gave me great peace of mind. Stella requires precise insulin administration and a strict feeding routine, and Jeanette handled everything perfectly. It's clear that Jeanette has a genuine love for animals and a solid understanding of how to care for pets with special medical needs. When I returned, I took solace knowing Stella had been well-cared for. I highly recommend Jeanette for anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate pet sitter, especially if your pet has special medical needs. Thank you, Jeanette, for your exceptional service!”
