I'd love to love your fur babies!

Pet care experience

I recently had to let go of my 10 year old boxer pup, Roxy Balboa, and really miss having a dog companion around but I'm also not ready to get my own again. She came down with a late onset progressive and degenerative neurological disease called Degenerative Myelopathy shortly before her eighth birthday and about 6 months after that needed a doggy wheelchair to get around. Once she got going in her wheels though she was a speedy little girl and we'd go cruising around the neighborhood and the parks. The disease continued to progress though and the day came when I had to make that tough call. I love dogs so much but like I said I'm not ready to get my own yet so I thought this would be a nice alternative for now. I would love to love your fur babies! Feel free to follow my IG for lots of cute animal photos and if I watch your pet I guarantee you there will be lots of photos taken and stories/posts made and I'll tag you! @jen_loves_animals Thank You!!

Jen was amazing! She was very communicative, adaptable, and clearly loves dogs and took wonderful care of our older golden, Theo. We got great photos and she was amenable to all of Theo's needs (now that he's almost 14, he has some senior quirks, etc). She also took great photos and kept us updated daily. I highly recommend Jen, esp for any senior pups!

A typical day

The dog park on Soto St in Pt Loma is a mile from my house and its great. There is a small and large dog section. I like walking there and letting the dog run around and play with other dogs and then walk home. They might accompany me to the beach and walk the boardwalk. Anything that I can do with a dog I usually bring them along for.

I own my condo in Pt Loma and animals are allowed here but I'm also willing to house and pet sit at your place. Theres a fenced in dog park on Soto Street about a mile from my house thats really nice. I like to visit it sometimes when I'm watching a dog. I go into the office 3 x a week but work from home every Tuesday and Friday. The days I go into the office I'm home around 4pm. On the weekends I'm able to take your pups on little adventures and hikes around San Diego. Everything is more fun with a dog!
