Ratings and reviews
Jen is so responsive and wonderful!! She took care of our Goose even when our little girl got sick during the sit.
Jennifer did a great job taking care of my spunky five- month old lab puppy! She sent lots of updates and pictures and was super communicative. I felt very confident that my puppy was well- taken care of. I will definitely use Jennifer again next time I need a sitter!
Jen was exceptionally communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. She took excellent care of my pups and they had a great time with her!
Jennifer was amazing with Gucci! She went above and beyond from the start by asking if Gucci could meet Watson—her brother’s dog—before the stay to make sure they would get along, which we really appreciated since Watson is very shy and timid around other dogs and people. At drop-off, Gucci unexpectedly had an accident and peed on one of the toys on the carpet, which honestly shocked my husband and me because he’s never done that with us or any previous sitters. Jennifer was so kind and understanding about it and later told us he never did it again during the entire 3 days he stayed with her. We also truly appreciated that Jennifer took Gucci in during Christmas, which meant so much to us. She was communicative, patient, and genuinely caring throughout the stay. We felt completely comfortable leaving Gucci in her care and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!
Jennifer is experienced, thoughtful and patient. My boy is skittish and anxious but Jennifer was very understanding and skilled at distracting him. He settled in nicely and was able to cuddle up with her on the couch. I got many updates about his progress and felt confident he was well taken care of. Will visit again!

Schedule
Pet care is my top priority because I’m currently not working and have no pets of my own. This means I can devote my full attention and flexible schedule to caring for your dog—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays. Your pet will always have my undivided time and love.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet will enjoy a calm, comfortable townhouse environment with plenty of outdoor options. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I live across from a huge park and have several large green spaces nearby for safe walks and playtime. Since I’m not working and have no pets of my own, your dog will receive my full attention and care throughout the day.
