Pet care experience

Dogs are children too!!

I only want to leave my dog in the hands of someone who will take care of him the way I do, so I am happy to be that person for others and provide the kind of care and love you do to your little one/s! All ages are welcome at my house. Elderly dogs will have a hotel like pampered stay catered to their needs. Puppies will receive schedule oriented, activity filled stays as I will help keep the training consistent with your normal schedule at home.

Great communication and friendly. She sent pictures and updates. My cat is special needs and takes multiple medications daily. She helped ease my anxiety and my cat looks like he had a great time.

Jenevieve was excellent and took such great care of Kenny! We’re pretty sure he didn’t even miss us because he was having so much fun. She was very organized, thorough, and communicative, and incredibly patient with all of our questions before and during his stay. We especially loved getting photos of Kenny while we were on vacation—it was great seeing how happy he was. Highly recommend Jenevieve, and we would absolutely use her services again!

Jenevieve was fantastic! She watched our dogs over our wedding weekend and offered to come pick them up so we wouldn’t have to stress about dog drop off. She sent pics, communicated well and loved on our doggies. They were so tried after a fun weekend away!

Jenevieve is amazing with my puppy. Our puppy is always happy to return to Jenevieve and Jenevieve is a clear and prompt communicator. Will definitely ask Jenevieve to watch our puppy again.

Privacy fenced in back yard for play. Pet friendly park across the street from our house we go to daily. Toys galore for dogs of all ages and kids who adore animals! When your pet comes to stay, they are "part of the family." Pets belong on couches and beds with us and not in kennels like at a facility.
