“Jenn was very good she sent pictures different times throughout Rambo’s stay sent shot messages with pictures as to how he’s doing and getting along would definitely recommend her and use her again ??”


About: I have been watching dogs for over ten years for family, friends, and neighbors. I have also owned dogs my whole life. With a friendly pup of my own, we are always looking for new friends and ways to socialize. Your dog will be in great paws here! I have Tuesday’s off during the week and am available most weekends for a lunch time walk or a weekend get away for mom and dad. My pup is very social and loves making new friends. He is growing fast, so I have multiple kennel sizes if needed. I do live in an apartment, but in a very pet friendly area with lots of open space to walk around without having to worry about traffic.

About: I don't have a dog of my own, but would love to have a partner to go on walk with!! I go on daily walks and sometimes even 2. I have two cats of my own and love them dearly:) I have a full time job that is very flexible. I go on walks in the middle of the day lots of times, and am also free some mornings and evenings. I care for pets depending on how owners want them cared for. Leash walk, off-lease walk, dog park, fetch…whatever is preferred! I have a small yard with an underground fence.
