Pet care experience

Smile, your pet is safe and happy!

My in-law apartment is part of a duplex with a shared yard. My boarders are welcome to join in family life with grandchildren or they may choose the quiet of my home which is connected through a shared, closed-in back porch. I accept only one client with one dog at a time. Boarders must be comfortable with children and dependably house trained. Children will be closely supervised if your dog accompanies me next door. I will keep interactions safe for everybody. My fenced in yard allows for relaxed play time, however your dog will always be supervised outside. I have attended basic dog training classes and am happy to work with your dog using the commands you have established. My pet guests receive plenty of attention and are walked and fed according to your wishes.

We would not hesitate to use Jennifer again. She was very attentive and conscientious to our requests in caring for our senior dog, including medications. She was very loving and kind and made our dog feel very much at home. Jennifer was very communicative and responsive before and during Jessie’s stay. We appreciated knowing that all was well while we were away.

Schedule

My days are structured around Rover jobs and family. My Rover guests are my companions and become part of our family life. Some dogs prefer quiet. My in-law apartment allows a safe, quiet space for older dogs or dogs who just want to relax. Others thrive on visiting next door, hanging out in the yard with everybody and getting lots of pets and attention from my family members. I tailor my activities to my guests' personalities. Regardless of the activity, my guests are always under my care.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard, however, in addition to the fence, I use a very long training lead as an extra precaution when I'm in the yard with a dog. The long lead allows dogs to run and fetch, but gives me extra assurance for dogs who are escape artists or like to chase wild life. The back door of my apartment opens to an enclosed porch. I use an additional gate at my front door so I can guarantee a pet will not run out when I need to open the door.

A typical day

I have toys for lots of fun activities: balls for chasing and catching, ropes for tug, chew toys and squeaky plush toys. It's great fun to find out which activity gets my guest excited. Whether it's a challenging game of "find it", a game of tug or an old fashioned stick thrown in the yard, it's fun to see them engaged and happily playing. There's a wooded area with walking trails across the street from me, as well as a quiet road alongside a lake where dogs can check out all the latest neighborhood smells. I love going for walks in my neighborhood and having a companion is the only way to go!

Let me know if your pet has any special needs so that I am prepared to handle them. I have experience with pets who need special care including those who are senstive to loud sounds or who require medication for health issues. I strive to help your pet feel safe and secure. I use a gentle and confident tone and treats to help them focus their attention away from troublesome stimuili.
