🐶😻 Loving Pet Care with Update's
🐾 Loving Pet Care in a Safe, Comfortable Home 🏡💛 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly lights up around dogs and cats of all kinds. I’ve had pets my entire life—including Shar-Peis, Labs, Dachshunds, Scotties, puppies, and multi-pet households—so I’m comfortable with all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I work from home, which means your pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and love throughout the day. Whether your dog loves playtime and adventures or prefers relaxing on the couch for cuddles, I adapt to their individual needs and routine. 🏡 About My Home Your pet will enjoy a safe, loving environment with: • A large, fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor play • A clean, calm home with lots of affection and attention • Access to nearby walking trails and a dog park • A safe, gated community with quiet streets for walks • No pets of my own or children, allowing me to focus completely on your pet Pets are welcome on furniture and are treated like family. If your dog enjoys snuggling on the couch or curling up nearby, they'll feel right at home. 🐾 My Experience • Lifelong dog owner and animal lover • Experienced with puppies, adults, and senior dogs • Comfortable with multi-pet households • Experienced caring for cats, birds, and reptiles (at cat parent’s home) • Familiar with administering medications and following detailed care instructions • Strong understanding of pet behavior, routines, and positive reinforcement 💛 My Care Philosophy I believe pets thrive with consistency, structure, patience, and lots of love. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and favorite activities. I keep my bookings limited so every pet receives personalized attention, affection, and quality care. 🐕 Services Offered ✔ Dog Boarding ✔ Doggy Day Care ✔ Dog Walking ✔ Drop-In Visits ✔ House Sitting ✔ Cat Care & Drop-Ins ✔ Bird & Reptile Care 🚗 Pickup & Drop-Off Available For your convenience, I can provide pickup and drop-off service for daycare or boarding appointments for an additional fee. This is perfect for busy schedules or early departures. 📸 Extra Peace of Mind I’m happy to send photo and video updates during your pet’s stay so you can relax knowing they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. Your pet is never "just a booking" to me—they become part of the family while they're in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member and creating a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for everyone involved..

Ratings and reviews
Jenifer was great. I booked her last minute and she was wonderful. My boxer has anxiety about being away with me so I have never left her with anyone. She did so well with Jenifer and was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. Jenifer kept me updated each day and sent pictures which I enjoyed seeing. I will definitely book with Jenifer again.
I highly recommend booking with Jenifer! I had never left my dog with anyone before and was very anxious, but she immediately made me feel comfortable and confident that Cariño would be in great hands. Before the stay, she welcomed us to her home so both Cariño and I could get familiar with the environment. Throughout the week Cariño was staying, Jenifer provided excellent communication, sending daily photos and updates that gave me peace of mind. She also took Cariño on two walks a day and treated her with great care. Overall, Jenifer exceeded my expectations, and I would absolutely trust her to watch Cariño again :).
Our 18 mo Great Pyrenees, Dazy absolutely adored Jenifer when she stayed with us! Jenifer has very uplifting energy that dogs love, and she pays attention to detail to understand the pups specific needs. Dazy really enjoyed walking around the neighborhood with her or going to dog parks, but maybe she enjoyed snuggling up with her on the couch the most!

Schedule
I currently work part-time from home, which provides a flexible schedule and ample time to care for your pets. I’m available on weekdays and weekends, and I’m happy to adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or cuddles, I ensure your pet receives consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and live in a quiet, gated community with plenty of walking areas. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely and adjust to their specific needs, whether that includes crate training, extra supervision, or special care instructions. I can take dogs to a local dog park for exercise and socialization (if approved), and I always ensure pets feel secure and relaxed. I’m also happy to provide a cozy, loving environment—including plenty of cuddles and even letting your pet sleep nearby if that’s what they’re used to.
A typical day
A typical day with me is full of fun, structure, and lots of love! I enjoy keeping dogs both physically and mentally stimulated with walks, playtime, and interactive games. We’ll explore new smells around my safe neighborhood, enjoy outdoor time in my fenced yard, and visit a nearby dog park (with your approval). I also make sure there’s plenty of downtime for cuddles and relaxation so your pet feels comfortable and happy.
