6. Jennifer S.
“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”

About: I have helped old dogs in the water, making sure they can swim, or at least tread water, while ensuring they stay afloat. I have taken care of dogs from year-old puppies, to old ones who need a little assistance getting up and down. I am always ready to go on a nice long walk, or just stay in and relax. I am available for boarding daily, with little notice necessary. I am at home full-time, and am ready and able to take care of your open whenever needed. I have a yard with no fence, and live on a lake with a dock. I do have 2 cats, but are very used to larger animals, and friendly with dogs. They can be restricted if necessary. I can easily crate your dog, if and when it is needed. I am also very good with cats, and have no issues if they get nervous or frightened.
