Jogger, great with nervous dogs

Pet care experience

Hi! I've had dogs my whole life and am experienced with handling behavior challenges and nervous/neurotic dogs. I have fostered for a rescue group for many years and take on the hard cases of dog who were abused/neglected/abandoned and need rehabilitated. If your dog is the shy type, I am happy to give them a safe walk that will relieve anxiety and energy. I have two dogs of my own and am experienced with walking multiple dogs at once. I'm a jogger and am happy to give your pup more of a workout! I have the ability to read and recognize dog body language and identify triggers of aggression, fear, and bolting. I will respect your space and your dog(s) as if they were my own.

Jen adores dogs and treats them with so much love, but still lets them know they need to listen to her. She has worked with some difficult dogs, bringing them from being fearful, unwilling dogs to happy, confident pets. She's not going to cut the walk short if it's rainy as long as your dog is happy.

Jen is amazing with dogs! Jen is super loving with her dogs, and at the same time, she is firm and strict with them. Her dogs are some of the best behaved I've ever met. Jen is committed to treating each animal she meets with kindness, love, and is always in control with them. Jen has rescued and fostered several dog who were neglected and abused, and has taken them from anxious and skittish to playful and calm. I would absolutely trust my dogs in Jen's care

Jen is so great with dogs! She is knowledgeable and patient, even with high maintenance dogs. She also truly loves dogs. In addition, Jen is reliable and professional. I have no worries leaving my home ad pets in her care.
