A fun stay, while you're away!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Jena and I'm a huge animal lover! I grew up on a farm, being exposed to animals of all kinds, including dogs of all sizes and personalities. I am passionate about pets and I would love the opportunity to care for yours while you're away! I have experience in pet boarding and I have volunteered/ fostered with local shelters throughout high school and college, which was both rewarding an invaluable in gaining hands on experience caring for all types of animals. Rest assured knowing that safety is my number one concern and I take many steps to ensure the safety of all pets in my care. All playtime is monitored and pets always go out on a leash unless they are in a fenced yard, pets from different families are never left together unattended and feeding is always done separately. Additionally, you can always have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and happy by receiving daily updates and photos of your pet throughout the day! I have one dog, a westie named Bama. She is a very sweet and active girl who loves playing just as much as she loves watching tv on the couch. A meet and greet is also required prior to booking. This gives both parties a great opportunity to meet and go over any questions or special concerns prior to your pets stay. :) You can be sure that your dog will receive lots of attention and care while you're away! I'm active and love being outside if your dog needs exercise. What I'd love to know from you: - Is your dog friendly with other dogs? - Is your dog house broken? - Do they use a crate? - What's your dog's feeding, pee, exercise schedule? - Any allergies? - Where does your dog prefer to sleep? - Any medications? - Any separation anxieties? - Is your dog up to date on all vaccinations? **I can also accommodate dogs with special needs (food, medication, etc.) **Rabies and distemper vaccines are required.

Jena was great! She stayed overnight at my house and my dog, who is slow to warm up to people, was very comfortable with her after only a short time. Jena is conscientious, kept me up to date on their activities with pictures, and is a pleasure to know. I will definitely use her again!

Jena was amazing for our pups! Our older dog has some chronic health issues that she managed including his high anxiety. Then, the day she got there our younger dog was diagnosed with an UTI, and she administered that medicine and monitored his progress. I was so impressed and appreciative of her attention to their care. She also left the house spotless!

Jena was the absolute best. She was flexible in accommodating all of our requests and our dogs loved her. We have a young border collie mix and a 9 year old german shepherd. We were able to enjoy a weekend away knowing they were in good hands. She kept us posted on every visit and went above and beyond our expectations - If you are ever in need of a sitter in the Raleigh area I would, without a doubt recommend Jena!
