Bio
Tom Bittner
Jacquie is an absolute asset to any pet friendly household. My wife and I went on vacation recently and were in dire need of a solid, responsible pet sitter. We have a small cat and she can be very skittish. To say it takes a while for her to warm up to new people is putting it mildly. Before we met, Jacquie came over and met us both as well as our cat. Not only were we comfortable with her, it seemed our cat was as well. Jacquie came by once a day for the week. She is extremely well organized and keeps detailed notes of each visit. She stayed with her a while, fed, played with her and gave her attention. We came back and usually she is very needy and craving attention, not the case this time. Please consider Will Wag For Wags for your pet care needs as my wife and I officially have a pet sitter.

Jacqueline is a very nice, friendly, and honest person. We trusted her enough to give her access to our home to care for our little dog while we were on vacation. Our dog, Paddington, still loves Jacqueline and she is the best sitter he has had. We definitely recommend her!
