Our History

How it all began.

Jerry Koons spent 13 years in apartment maintenance, and his favorite part of work was chatting with the tenants. He especially connected with pet owners and decided to start a career that would allow him to serve pet owners every day.

His wife, Alison Koons, worked for the Merry Maid cleaning service. She also enjoyed talking to customers about their animals; some even asked her to pet sit.

After casually offering dog-walking and pet-sitting services for a year, the Koons realized they had found their calling. A business they could run together while doing all of the things they love the most: making friends with pet lovers, enjoying the company of animals, and getting fresh air and exercise each day.

Our Snuggle Buddy

Meet Mocha Koons

Jerry and Alison adopted Mocha from the Martinez Animal Shelter, and she’s since become the light of their lives, a warm snuggle buddy, and a big inspiration for The Pet Nanny.

With the help of positive reinforcement classes and lots of patience, Mocha learned to be a good girl. She even sits, lies down, and rolls over – sometimes, all at once!

The Koons know firsthand how important exercise, positivity, and attention are to having a great dog. By providing the same for your dog, they’ll help you raise a great pup who’s easy to live with – just like Mocha.
