Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Jen was fantastic to work with and took great care of Dakota for the trip. Highly recommend!
Jen was amazing. Took very good care of our 17 year old dog. Even gave us suggestions on things to do for him in his old age.
Jen was great with Luna. Luna can be shy at times and it looks like she warmed up to Jen right away. I appreciate Jen's communication and our home was out of the way for her so she really did us a favor looking after Luna while we were gone. Thanks Jen!
Jen was an incredible caregiver for my senior pup, Cody. She was always so welcoming, supportive and Cody loved spending time with Jen and her pack. She was always very flexible with scheduling and offered very fair pricing for her services. I have missed her greatly since she moved to SD and remember the many happy times that Cody had with her. She would be a wonderful caregiver for your beloved pets! <3
I have known Jen for several years and, most notably, is her exemplary care of all animals. She is conciensious, kind and playful. I would not hesitate to have Jen dog sit for my guy.
In the 5 years I have known Jen, I have seen firsthand what a responsible, reliable, knowledgeable and dedicated animal lover and caretaker she is. She has her own personal menagerie of dogs, cats and horses, all of whom receive the best of care. She is also trained in and actively involved in wildlife rehabilitation and horse rescue and rehabilitation. I have personally observed her doing whatever it takes to make make sure the lives of the animals under her care are well taken care of and loved. Any company with a focus on animals, would be very lucky to have her as part of their organization.

Schedule
I only take small breeds in home for boarding. Must be pet friendly to other small dogs. For outside/stop in care I can do any size and morning and night visits.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a Fenced in yard with a doggie door and I am always watching them when they are outside. There are 6 foot tall fences as well for their safety.
Pets
A typical day
I love pets and to snuggle and let them know they are loved. This may include many activities or none at all, at your pet's request.
