Pet care experience

Providing safety, comfort and love

I have over 20 years of pet care experience by providing care in my own home, and in clients homes for medium and large dogs as well as cats. I also have 4 years of fostering experience with rescue dogs, including pregnant moms and birthing puppies. With all this experience I have provided medications, given laser therapies (with clients equipment), bottle and syringe fed young pups. I have walked dogs on leash and on slip leads. My mission is to make cats and dogs in my care feel safe, comfortable and loved while their pawrents are gone.

My dogs loved Derek and Jenn. I was very comfortable with their care and appreciated the pictures and updates during their stay.

Can not praise Derek and Jenn enough, they took care of our very nervous little Jack ( this little chap had a sad start in life and never really knew that humans can be ok) and they let him see how great people can be. Had daily pictures and updates, I never worried once whilst on our holiday, he looked more relaxed every day. Thank you both, I know we will be happy to have Jack stay next time we are away.

Jenn and Derek took real good care of Penny while I was visiting TN . Penny had a blast. She was safe and well cared. I received updates on her frequently including pictures of her and the activities she did. She looked like she was home. Great job. Well done. I would recommend your services. Thank you Jenn and Derek. Great team work.

Hello Jenn was the foster mom for my dog Penny. Jenn has done an excellent job fostering and I can see the great care she also has for her own dogs. I would absolutely trust her to watch my dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I am open to providing care for 4 dogs in my home in addition to my pack, and am able to take multiple cats (they have their own room in my home so that they are not stressed by the dogs and vice versa). In my home dogs would have access to outside time as needed for the majority of the day. I will follow all expectations for your dog in your home. In our home dogs are allowed on the furniture as we allow our own on the furniture. I believe in positive reinforcement by providing love, treats and redirection. I will not and am not comfortable using shock collars, prong collars or choke collars.

Pets

A typical day

I believe that enrichment is key for happy and healthy fur babies. Therefore I use ample outdoor time with toys available for physical exercise. I also use puzzle toys for mental stimulation. I enjoy reason and love doing story time for those interested.
