If you’re in need of a reliable and loving caregiver for your furry friend, I’m the perfect fit! Make sure to contact me if you’d like to know more and have any questions! Looking forward to it!

“I have 4 dogs (1 golden doodle, 2 Bichon and Chihuahua mix and 1 chihuahua) it's super hard to find people that can deal with my dogs (the are barkers and the golden doodle is only 6 months old). But Jen was amazing, from the moment she walked in, she asked questions, listened and took care of my dogs accordingly. When I came home my dogs were treating her like she was apart of the family (which is rare!) Me and my husband will definitely be booking her again!!”
