LOVING YOUR PETS IS OURS BUSINESS!
Pet care experience

How we stand apart from the others is we are your dedicated K9's & Kitties Companion! We provide loving companionship in your absence-whether on vacation or working long days, or if you are unable to care for your pet as usual. We are dedicated to ensuring your pet has physical exercise, mental stimulation & emotional security, but most of all we provide positive attention and peace of mind for you and your pets! CALL TODAY - I am excited to become your K9's & Kitties Best Friend! Previous Veterinary clinic experience. We are qualified in giving oral medications, ear/eye medication, injections, sub-q fluids, topical ointments, bandage changes. We can identify true signs of trauma in a pet, and are more aware of signs and symptoms of potential risks in a pets health than the average layperson. 18yrs Law Enforcement. This experience translates to mean I have heightened conflict/crises resolution skills, I have a heightened sense of my surroundings and am more sensitive to things that seem out of place. This experience also provided me with the experience to remain very calm & in control and that carries over to a sense of security that animals pick up on and they become very comfortable with me. Why I love dog sitting? All My Life has been dedicated to caring for animals in one form or another! Starting with our 1st dog, Boots, my very first memories are with dogs in my world. I can't imagine (and don't want to) a life without a family pet. My experience administering medication? I worked for veterinarians for 9+ years and am comfortable and knowledgeable in administering insulin injections, ear & eye ointments, and oral medications (even for the stubborn ones!), topical ointments & bandage changes & subcutaneous fluids.
Reviews
Our dogs love it when we go away because it means Kenna is coming to stay with them. She showers them in love and attention, while taking care of their every need. Kenna is conscientious about attending to the individual needs of our dogs, whether they are medical or behavioral. She sends pictures and updates on a daily basis. We never worry about the dogs when Kenna is with them. We highly recommend her.
Kenna is the most responsible, caring, knowledgeable dog sitter we have ever used. Our dogs love her, as she caters to their individual quirks and medical conditions with ease and skill. When our elderly dog needed IVs at home on a regular basis, she competently administered that service also. We leave for vacation worry-free, knowing our dogs are in Kenna’s exceptional care.
Kenna is just simply the best! I have been using her for about 8 years and wouldn’t trust anyone else. With my two now deceased dogs she provided the best medical care needed when necessary and I never once worried while away with my dogs in her loving care. My current rescue dog who has lots of anxieties loves Kenna and thrives in her care. Kenna has tons of experience and tons of love to give. I literally schedule our trips around her availability and can’t wait to use her services again once life returns to normal from this pandemic. She is truly the gold standard of dog sitters and I say that as a dog owner with the highest of expectations for my furry best friends.
Kenna is amazing and awesome! I have 3 little dogs, 1 is special needs. All 3 have special food and different needs and my special needs boy wears a diaper. I was very nervous about leaving them for several days. I spoke with Kenna and she was very reassuring and gave me an option of leaving the dogs at our house or having them go to her house. I was very apprehensive but once we met Kenna at her house it was wonderful. Her house is perfect for caring for our dogs. They were able to safely run in and out of the house whenever they wanted and play with the other dogs. She even sent us pictures throughout their time with her. When we went to pick up our little ones they were so happy. My special needs dog was so excited and his personality was full of life. I would highly recommend Kenna for anyone needing dog sitting. I still use her services and have recommended her to my family as well.

Information Kenna P. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences at all. All dogs are good dogs (even the naughty ones) in my book. And all dogs deserve the same love and devotion and discipline to make their lives happy and secure. I always want to know the dogs dislikes/fears/aggression issues, if any, prior to starting a job. Nothing in general is a disqualifier, but I do require owners to be up front and honest about any behaviors that may be of concern. i.e., scared of thunderstorms, hates kids, not good with other dogs, walks poorly on leash, resource guarding issues, etc...
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog; Overnight visits are a guaranteed 12 hour minimum. They include evening & morning walks (weather permitting), play time, feeding, and what ever else your best friend would like to do! ***** Daily visits are structured around your pets needs. The shortest visits will be 30 minutes for a short potty break/feeding & a quality play time. Or 60min Visits, and all day stays if required. Pricing is based on the type of visit you deem best for your pet. ***** Extra house-sitting services We will bring in the mail, check windows & doors to ensure they are securely latched, water plants if given specific directions (I do NOT have a green thumb!), feed fish (but will not clean tanks), bring in and take out garbage as needed.
