Availability
I am currently working part-time from home on a self-managed, very flexible schedule. If you and your babies would like, after a meet-and-greet my pup Champ is happy to come along with me for pack walks, drop-ins for playdates, or house sittings :)

About Jennifer F.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to visit with furbabies and connect first with a gentle introduction and calm energy, but let them know how happy I am to meet them :) While caring for them ensuring they have plenty of potty breaks/clean litter boxes if needed, cleanliness of eating/drinking bowls and toys, attention, and of course lots of affection and play! Whatever their wants or needs are is where I start, and continue their usual routine with added fun :)
Home
Information Jennifer F. would like to know about your pet
It's always helpful to know any special needs, medication schedules, veterinary & emergency contact information, as well as behaviors, movements or actions that are encouraged, or should be avoided so I can ensure they are at ease & feel safe. I ensure reinforcement and consistency of existing training. Also, their regular eating and walk schedules (timing and duration) to ensure their stay feels familiar, and any permissions they do not have (no sleeping on beds, etc.).
A typical day
Your pups will enjoy their favorite sniff-spots, and explore some new ones! They'll get lots of snuggles and scritches while hearing what a good sweet adorable baby they are. We'll play their favorite games and and with their most prized toys. We may watch some aquarium or squirrel videos too! I have extra toys & treats as well if they can/would enjoy them :) Your kitties will get lots of laptime and play time with their favorite toys, scratches and snuggles. Perhaps a bit of catnip if that's to their fancy! We will also have great conversations about how they are the cutest, smartest most perfect babies ever. In my experience pets enjoy being talked to and fortunately, I am chatty!

Pet care experience
I've loved & devoted 25 years to many furbabies, from puppies to seniors in hospice, with reliable, trustworthy and compassionate care. From the start my goal is to connect with your pet and continue the same routines, play and walk schedules that they're used to (plus extra if that's ok!) and provide you peace of mind while they are in my care. I love to send photo and video updates throughout our fun! I'm proactive with check-ins and notes and as many photos & visits as your phone's storage can handle, and am responsive and reachable to any messages or calls, both with your babies and before/after. However possible I go above & beyond to have fun with your furbabies, put them at ease and let you relax with your time away from home :)
Reviews
I loved the communication, pictures, and videos! It felt so reassuring leaving Princess with Jennifer and Champ. I'm sure Princess has gained a friend! I also loved how happy my dog was to stay the night 😁
Jennifer was excellent while taking care of Summit!!! She sent many pics and videos too!
Jennifer was awesome! She accommodated a last minute request to watch our dog for a few hours in the evening and it helped us out so much. She was kind and let our dog play with hers in her large yard. She also took great photos and was communicative and prompt. Highly recommend her!
Jennifer did an amazing job taking care of our dog and 2 cats!! She was super communicative and gave us tons of updates, which is always so wonderful, and it was clear in all of the pictures and videos we got that our animals were so comfortable with her. She went above and beyond to be helpful and I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone!
