HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR ANYONE SEEKING A BABYSITTER &/or DOG SITTER I cannot recommend Janie Rylander enough for anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, attentive caregiver for their pets or children. I have had the pleasure of working with Janie Rylander on multiple occasions, and she has far exceeded my expectations each time. She was not only punctual and professional but incredibly warm and patient with Silas and Milo, my 11-year-old boy and 14-year-old Border Collie. Trust me, your kids and pets will be well cared for and have tons of fun!

Janie Rylander is truly one of a kind. She is so loving and tender with the kids, they always feel safe, cared for, and genuinely seen when they’re with her. She’s not just reliable (though she always is), she also makes things fun and full of life. Janie has a gift for getting kids engaged in amazing activities, keeping them busy, curious, and happy. My kids absolutely light up when she’s around. Anyone would be lucky to have her in their lives — we sure feel grateful for her!
