Pet care experience

Works from home - Large Fenced Yard

I loved animals all my life! I have fostered and adopted cats and dogs for over 10 years. I work from home and I am in tune with my animals and understand their needs. I have a two story home about 2300 square feet and a half acre fenced in yard for activities. Your pet will be welcome as an honorary member to my pack. For the privacy and safety of my family and the pets in my care, I do not offer tours inside my home. I am happy to provide photos, videos, and answer any questions before booking. Communication & Updates I know how important it is to feel connected while you’re away. I provide a daily update with photos each evening (typically between 5–9 PM) so you can see how your dog’s day went. If you’d ever like a quick check-in during the day, you’re always welcome to message me and I’ll respond as soon as I’m available. Because I focus on hands-on care for the dogs in my home, updates are typically sent once daily rather than throughout the entire day.

This is our second time leaving our Dobie Diesel with Jennifer, he absolutely loves staying her and her family and I have peace of mind knowing he is having fun, is safe and comfortable with someone that has experience with his breed and takes good care of him! I love getting his pictures at the end of the day while we are on vacation and see him having so much fun playing with other doggie friends 🐶

Jennifer took great care of our 9 month old lab for a week. It was her first time away from us for more than a day and she had a great time playing with the other dogs. She actually ran into her house when we dropped her off.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard, great for a high energy pack. I can also crate your dog, and I am very accommodating to their normal routine. *I secure each dog for feeding due to allergies and/or medications. *Important to also note, I will have to secure animals while I am performing another meet and greet or if an animal is arriving/departing from my home. *Please show proof of vaccination records and preventative medications like flea, tick, and heartworm before boarding. For the privacy and safety of my family and the pets in my care, I do not offer tours inside my home. I am happy to provide photos, videos, and answer any questions before booking.
