About: Owner of one sweet large dog and two cats. More than 10 years of experience taking care of animals. Graduate student with flexible schedules and lots of love for many fur babies. My parents are with me right now so extra hands on deck and almost companion all day for your pets. I’m a graduate student with flexible schedules. I enjoy playing and walking with animals for relaxation. I live in a neighborhood that’s very great for dog walking. I have a fenced yard, very friendly dog and cats. Enough space indoors for playing too. I have a car hammock for dog to sit comfortably in the back seat and seatbelt for them, if we need to go take a ride.

“Allie has been staying with a Jennifer consistently for a of couple months now, and she loves it there! Some days she doesn't even want to come home because she loves playing with Buster so much. So glad to know I have somewhere safe and loving to send Allie when I have to be away!!!”


“Makhayla really saved the day for me and my pup- last minute, she agreed to watch my dog on a Saturday, and later that day when my friend had a crisis and needed my support overnight, Makhayla came to my rescue and agreed to watch Molly overnight, even though that hadn't been our original plan. She was communicative, adaptable, kind, and great with Molly dog. Sent me lots of pictures too. Highly recommend- you can depend on Makhayla!”


“Janay was great with Layla’s first daycare session! She sent plenty of pictures and I could tell Layla was very happy hanging out with Janay. We’ve already booked a weekend next month.”


“Olga took such great care of my baby Remy! He is a very active dog and she took him on several walks and showed him so much love. He was totally exhausted when he came home and even slept in the next day, which I love. She was flexible too, as pickup details shifted during his stay. I would highly recommend Olga to anyone!”



“Casey is amazing! She is so welcoming and Luna had a great visit. She was able to take me last minute, which was so wonderful. Her dogs are adorable, and the fenced in yard is huge for Luna to play in!”


“Victoria was able to watch my pup on short notice and took great care of him! She sent photos of their playtime and it looked like he really enjoyed himself! Will definitely will her again and would highly recommend to anyone!”


“Jordan is absolutely fantastic! I wanted to give my parents a day off while they watched my 11 month old for the week and Jordan was the perfect person to do so. My puppy has separation anxiety and my mom said he didn’t even notice her leave he was so excited to spend the day with Jordan and Biscuit. It was such a relief knowing he was well cared for and having a great time. He even fell asleep cuddled up with Jordan! Jordan sent so many pictures and was just the sweetest from the first moment we got in contact with each other! I’ve already booked her again :) I highly recommend going with Jordan!!!”


“Walter is amazing! So flexible and understanding! He has really taken the time to get to know my pup, to truly work with her and embrace her and all of her quirks! She comes home happy and tired! He has made a second home for her, and I am eternally grateful! I have so much peace of mind. Thank you for everything, Walter!”


“Jasmine is really great. This is my first time needing a sitter for my dog CoCo. I was nervous about leaving my baby with someone I did not know. She agreed to do a meet and greet with Coco a day before, to make sure we were comfortable. This young lady was really professional, reassuring and accommodating. I would definitely recommend using her. Thank You Jasmine.”



“Christine and Jess rock! I needed a last minute reservation due to a funeral and our plans were a moving target for a few days. Chris was awesome in helping me manage logistics so I could figure out how to make my unexpected trip go as smoothly as possible. Their place is on an amazing piece of land and Chris was very helpful in finding the best location for Maxi's short visit. Chris took lots of photos of Maxi and made sure she had plenty of fun. I highly recommend her and Jess and awesome sitters for your furry friends.”
