Large Yard & Playful Friends

Where Fur Friends are treated like Family! Dogs and cats have been a part of my life since birth. I adopted the first "my" dog at 10. Over the years, my pets transitioned to consist mostly of rescues and wild-borns. I have experience raising puppies (youngest was 4 months), dogs with behavior challenges due to abuse, taking care of elderly dogs (oldest is 16 years), to disabled dogs (degrees of paralyzation, recuperation, therapy, expression assistance, & recovery). As a result I also have experience in providing medications, assisting the dog to stand/walk with harness or wheelchair, frequent potty breaks, helping to relieve the dog's anxiety by carrying them in a dog sling, and etc., as needed.

I can always trust Jenifer and her entire family to love Frank as their own. I miss Frank so much when I’m on work trips but it makes me feel so happy to know that he is receiving top notch care and all the love he can take. If you ever need a sitter Jenifer is the best! I won’t trust anyone else but her!

Jennifer is truly the best sitter we’ve ever had on Rover. She takes incredible care of our dog, Ollie, and treats him like he’s her own. You can genuinely tell she loves animals, and it shows in every interaction. From the moment we leave, I feel completely at ease knowing he’s with her. She consistently sends thoughtful updates throughout the day, which I really appreciate. I’m always in the loop on how he’s doing, what he’s up to, and anything important that comes up. That level of communication makes such a difference, especially when we’re traveling. We’ve booked with Jennifer four or five times now, and every single experience has been seamless. Not once have I worried about Ollie while we’re away, which says everything. She’s reliable, attentive, and someone we fully trust. And honestly, her pricing is more than fair. She’s absolutely worth more, but I’m so grateful for the value she provides. She has a lot of green grass for your pup to play in that’s covered with big beautiful trees. If you’re looking for someone you can fully trust with your dog, Jennifer is it.

Schedule

Our pets are accustomed to priority treatment and have a predictable routine for eating, care, sleep, and play. Pets in our home are treated as family and are talked to, played with, and loved on throughout the day. I work from home and leave the house very infrequently.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fully fenced backyard and two side yards and even so, our pets are not left outdoors unattended at any time. In favorable weather we spend a lot of time outdoors in our large grassy yard, with mature trees, and garden areas for running, playing fetch, relaxing on the patio, or just seeing what snacks can be sampled from the gardens. There is so much for them to explore and experience. We even make our own dog treats from home grown produce such as carrots, beans, cucumbers, pea pods, etc. Our neighborhood is very conducive for safe walking and I even have a pet stroller so that senior dogs are able to enjoy getting out and about with us too. We have dog beds throughout the indoors as well as on the outdoor patio so that a comfy spot might be found no matter what room we may gather. Meet & Greets are recommended and encouraged as a way for me to put your mind at ease about the high level of care your dog will be receiving, gauge your dogs happiness with me and the surroundings, as well as the compatibility of Mochi and Kylo with your dog(s).

Pets

A typical day

Our household has a fairly routine schedule that is predictable and therefore comforting. Our pets know what to expect and when other dogs come for a stay they typically find their stride pretty quickly, feel at home, and everyone is fast friends. A typical day involves indoor and outdoor play, exploration in the garden, photo shoots, scritches, treats, naps, fetches, and walks (or stroller rides) around the sidewalk-lined neighborhood, weather permitting. Older dogs can participate to their level of energy; while higher energy dogs have plenty of space to run, jump, and explore.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors and what accommodations that can be made to provide them the most comfortable of stays. For example: If your dog piddles when excited, it's OK! We just want to be made aware to prepare for their best care.
