Since I work from home and my mom is retired, your dog will get lots of love and attention. My mom and I work on this together and live in separate homes. We watch dogs who are social with other dogs and people. We take them out as needed and if your dog is up for it, I can take him or her on my morning walk if that's ok with you.

Safety, trust & environment

A safe space for dogs they can call their own is imortant for a pup especially while they're away from family. I turned my dining room into a "pup palace" which is a luxurious safe space for them while away from their owners. Everything they could want and need is in that space, even a specially dedicated sofa for them! The space is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use. If the dog is up for it, I often visit and cuddle with them. Once the doggy is comfortable, I let them have free range of the house if they're up for it.

Information Jennifer D. would like to know about your pet

It’s recommended to bring their favorite food and their favorite treats so I can win their love. :) Some items that help a dog while away from their owners are their favorite toy(s) and even an item that has the smell of the owner on it. I always respond to your messages and I will reach out during our journey with pictures to help with knowing your dog is safe and happy. ** We are unable to accommodate dogs who wear diapers or use pee-pads (even occasionally). Please ensure your pup is completely trained to go outside. Thank you for understanding. **

A typical day

A typical day would be a morning walk (if the pup is up for it), playing ball and tons of snuggles. I work from home so I can play and attend to the dog regularly. I absolutely love hosting pups. I truly feel I am loving dogs while helping people.
