Description

Specialties

The «ULTIMATE» in my overnight pet sitting service refers to my speciality: that of including the animals’ daytime care in addition to overnight services. I think the pictures tell the story of how much I love to do fun things with animals. Every adventure is individualized, based on what activities the clients are comfortable with for their pets. Sometimes it is as simple as sitting quietly with a shy cat or as exciting as taking a social dog to Dog Beach. I leave the home in excellent condition. I clean up after the pets. I do anything asked to maintain the home while the owners are away, such as mail, trash, watering, etc. I send pictures and email/​text regularly so the clients can see that their beloved pets are having a good time and are well cared for. I offer a free consultation and introductory walk with owner and dog (s).

History

Established in 2010.

I moved back to Southern California and finally had the timing right to be able to pursue my passion, that of working with animals all day long. I have been fortunate enough to build a business that does exactly that. I provide care for a variety of animals. I exercise horses, I train dogs, I play with cats. I handle everything from geckoes to goats. I have pet first-​aid training. I can administer medicine. I have completed the Karen Pryor Dog Trainer Foundations course, which is based on positive reinforcement. I am skilled in clicker training. I am also very involved with Rancho Coastal Humane Society. I have completed levels 1, 2, and 3 Dog Handler training courses there. I attend weekly dog training sessions, working with dogs to overcome any behavioral issues that may prevent them from finding a good home. I am a mentor to new volunteers, I am also the photographer’s assistant, and I take dogs to the news stations for weekly «Adoptable Dog» segments.

Meet the Business Owner

Jan M.

Business Owner

I am a native Californian and my family resides here. I spent many years away from California, traveling and working both in Europe and the East Coast. I am happy to be home and raising my daughter in this lovely coastal town of Encinitas while pursuing a career of working with animals day (and night). I enjoy being outdoors and taking dogs and horses out for adventure and exercise. Every day of my job is different from the day before and that keeps me enthusiastic and motivated.
