Experienced In Home Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! I am a very experienced dog caretaker. Currently the dog mom to a small elderly dog and would love to open my home to one dog per day to take care of them in my home during the work week. I want you to feel confident that you are leaving your dog in very capable and kind hands while you are out! I am the proud dog-mom to two small rescue dogs, a a toy poodle named Larry (elderly, 13 years old) and a dachshund named Schubert (7years old). I work from home and would love to provide in-my-home care for your dog during the work week (Monday-Friday) so you can go to work knowing that your dog is in extremely good hands. I love caring for dogs and would love the opportunity to provide your pup with a loving care and a great experience! My home is very quite and peaceful and there is plenty of space inside and outside (fenced!) to provide a comfortable stay for any canine visitor during daytime hours. Dogs will get lots of hands-on attention and love and I will be happy to text you pictures and updates! Can't wait to meet your pup! I'm proud to be considered for a daytime doggy daycare pet-sitter for your dog! Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, hope to speak with you soon!

I can explain why Jolyn is a FANTASTIC choice for a dog sitter in a single word. Larry. Jolyn took Larry into her home and in to her heart as a rescue four years ago. Larry was a dog, amongst manyother poor neglected animals who remained in a tiny cage their entire life. Larry was 2 1/2 when Jolyn got him so you can imagine what a wreck he was. No, you actually probable cannot imagine. Larry was as thin as any dog that was starved for months, shakes beyond belief and sores all over his four pound body. He was so afraid of every single sound and movement, that he refused to even lay down to go to sleep. Fast forward 4 years and you have a new dog. He is healthy weight, bouncy and happy to be alive. While he is still afraid of loud noises, he is able to 'communicate' with people and other animals and live a happy life. This is thanks to Jolyn. Without her love, attention, time and patience with this tiny creature, he most likely would be dead now. You want a good pet sitter? Pick Jolyn.
