“Jennifer was absolutely fantastic with my Tucker & Zoey. She came to my home and met them before her scheduled walk days, which was so comforting. She is a very sweet person, was on time, sent several pictures of them during their walk, and very great with communication! This was my first time using someone to walk my babies while I was away for several hours, but I WILL DEFINITELY be using Jennifer again. 😊😊😊”

About: **currently only accepting doodles & poodles for doggy daycare & overnights** **will accept any breed for drop ins & walks** I’m a stay-at-home mom, so your pup will receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. Our family includes two sweet girls, ages 8 and 4, and a friendly 4-year-old neutered Australian Labradoodle who loves meeting new dog friends. We have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime, along with a cozy crate and at least three dog beds if your pup needs a quiet spot to rest. There are also plenty of toys to keep them entertained!

Our house is pet-friendly with a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and I always supervise interactions to ensure everyone’s safety. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special care instructions you provide. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with respect and maintain their pet’s normal routine to minimize stress. I make sure pets have fresh water, proper nutrition, exercise, and plenty of affection while keeping their environment clean and safe. My priority is to build trust with both pets and their owners, so you can feel confident knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

“Anna is amazing! Not only was she punctual with visits but she went above and beyond when taking care of our golden retriever puppy. From tummy troubles to playful puppy mischief, Anna was patient, loving, and provides outstanding care.

About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from chihuahua to great dane. I have a preference for taking care of small-medium dogs due to my size (I'm 5"2 and about 155lbs) but am willing to take care of larger dogs dependingon their needs and temperament. I've been around dogs nearly all my life. If you have other pets that need care for will be around for home stays and pop ins I'm all for it as long as you inform me ahead of time. I love all animals be it dogs, cats,rabbits,snakes,fish,etc. I am currently taking a break from full time work so my schedule is fairly flexible these days. I have my own car so I have reliable transportation. I also have a doggy seat belt that, depending on the size of your dog, I may be able to use if you wish for me to take them to a dog park or the trails of the Dismal Swamp. While I am willing to take care of animals in their home I will not be taking any pets to my personal residence. I live with 2 Spaniels and 2 cats. The cats do not tolerate strange dogs coming and going.
