Quick Note for Pet Sitting Clients 🐾

Hey everyone! Just a quick heads-up for anyone I’m currently pet sitting for—or might in the future:

For insurance and liability reasons, I can’t have other people entering or leaving the home while I’m responsible for your pets. This includes family and friends or anyone else who might have a key or access. House cleaners are pretty much the exception.
If you have somone who will be home at night or has working hours, we can arrrange for me to come while they are out of the house. But at the time of visits, I need to be the only person entering and exiting the home.

It’s not about being difficult—it’s about keeping your pets safe, protecting your home, and making sure I can do my job without unexpected complications.

Thanks so much for understanding and for trusting me with your furry family members! 💛 Feel free to message me if you have any questions.

This comment is for anyone needing a reputable pet sitter but doesn't understand some of the cost that goes into a reputable or legitimate pet sitter. 🐰

I mean this respect and I know you want the best for your pet. But a reputable pet sitter has Pet Sitter Insurance (aprox.$375 yr), Car Insurance and payment ($900/mo average) Rent, and gas ($2.89+ a gallon) to buy, Other things that might be involved, planners, phone bill, pens, printer ink etc...
But what if they use Rover? (I dont, and dont suggest anyone else does, they dont cover you as well as you think) Rover takes 20 percent from the sitter. Plus asks 11 percent more than what the sitter asks the client for. So clients pay 31 percent more than the sitter gets. So $10- 31% = $6.90 My point is this is not cheap to do. A person can't live as a full time pet sitter at those low rates. Especially at the care your animals require. And I understand a pet sitter is expensive but taking advantage of someone at these prices if it's truly a reputable, worthy, legit pet sitter.
There is so much more going on than just letting the dog out and feeding them. We bring in mail, water plants, change litter, fix any other issues in the house that may arise, clean bowls and dishes and brush/play with the animals.

Thank you to all my clients who appreciate what I do. We love your animals more than you know.

This is not a post saying I'm raising prices but informative to say that if and when I do, there's a reason behind it. Cost of living and food goes up, so will luxury services. Yes, pet care is a luxury service.
I do try and be as fair as I can with clients and do offer discounts when I can, and I will continue to do so.
But keep in mind that it takes A LOT to do what I do and every penny,booking and review is so appreciated 👏
Thank you!!!!

I know some dogs can take the heat but it's often not safe for any dog over a certain temperature. So please understand that if I do cancel, it's for the dogs wellbeing. Yes, I can do a yard let out and indoor play. If that isn't available, I will do a 15min walk.

So I will be transitioning more to Instagram and finishing up my website.
I will still post on here but I'm hoping to have most of my clients on Instagram and or my website by this time next year.

So I didn't know how many people don't know that much about me.
You should know who's coming into your house and watching your furbabies.
Hello! My name is Jacqie and I am 37 years old. I have 2 kids (18months and 12 years old)
My 12 yo might be following my footsteps one day!
I started pet sitting when I was about 9 to make money for horseback riding lessons.
And that's where the love of caring for animals came from.
I grew up raising chickens and sheep as well as cats and dogs.
I rode horses for many years and was part of my local 4-H club for a few years.
I moved to Long Island in 2011 from NJ and had a few jobs before going back to Pet Sitting.
I went Full-Time in 2013, stopped in 2017 and covid extended that break but in 2022, I started back up again full time.
This is all I do.
I am going to school for Herbal Medicine as that has also been a big passion of mine. So I will be working on that degree the next 2 years or so.
I love to travel as well, I think it's very important to see the sights and experience the country and world.
I'm also a huge history buff, especially Civil War history.
I can't say favorites as far as dog breeds but Dobermans, Pugs and Corgis are up there.
I own 6 cats of my own, maybe one day we will have a dog again.
I also used to have finches and a chinchilla.
The only pet I probably wouldn't really care for is a tarantula (spiders are no for me) but snakes, turtles, fish are fine.

Nice to meet you all and can't wait to care for your furbabies!

Schedule for the Summer- it's a little crazy this year but life moves fast. Some dates have bookings (overnight) so don't freak out, I just am not taking my daily walk clients on those days to get my kiddo to and from activities/camp etc.

05/14/2025

Now weather can change really fast in the summer and we know this.
I will do my best to make sure your pup pees and poops at the very least.
But keep in mind that most times I only have the 30min, and I have been asked in the past to wait until the storm is over. Yes, sometimes I can do that, not a problem. But sometimes, I am not going to have time.
I will and try to do the best I can for everyone, but sometimes mother nature has other plans.
If you think the weather is going to be very bad at the time of the walk, just text me and ask, and we can decide if we should cancel or not.

05/13/2025

I might be adding July 21-25th and Sept. 20-21 to the list as things are changing with my parents moving.
Thank you!

I am also going to partially be available this weekend (16-19) but I do have quite a bit of personal things that need to be taken care of so I won't have a normal schedule.

05/08/2025

I also will be limited on Dog Walking that week.
It is a very busy week for me.

Yes, this is your sign to book early!
Dates are filling up fast for the summer.
