Doggy lover through and through

Pet care experience

Just as I love my own dogs, I will love yours, with lots of snuggles, walks, and play-time. I come from a family of bonafide doggy lovers where the main topic of conversation is always our dogs. I was born and raised with large breed dogs, primarily labs and golden retrievers, although I do have significant experience caring for smaller dogs as well from years of working in my grandmother’s dog grooming facility. I also have plenty of experience caring for cats and rabbits having owned many growing up. At one point my family owned 4 cats, 4 dogs, and 18 lop eared rabbits, so caring for animals is something I am no stranger to and I enjoy. When it comes to caring for your fur babies, I have a very flexible schedule as I am only attending school part-time at UAA. I am open to caring for all breeds and sizes, provided that your dog is not aggressive. I am also open to caring for puppies. I currently have an 8-year old black lab and a 9-month old golden retriever lab mix. I raised both of them from 8 weeks old so I understand the puppy messes and energy that comes along with caring for a puppy. Whether your dog is more interested in relaxing or getting lots of exercise, I can be the right fit for you and your pooch. Walks with my dog are a regular routine in my house that my dog looks forward to and I will be sure to provide that same loving care to your babies as well. I am also very outdoorsy. If your dog likes playing ball in the back yard, going to a local park, or going on a hike, I am always willing to take extra time for play-time. I’m an animal lover through and through and would love to make sure your fiddo gets the loving care he needs while you’re gone! And I know how it can be when you are missing them, so I will make sure to send plenty of updates and pictures on how they are doing.

Jennifer was great! She stopped by for a quick intro visit, asked some great questions, and was ready to roll. Definitely will use again.

Information Jennifer G. would like to know about your pet

- What are your dog’s favorite activities and toys? - Does your dog have preferred walking areas? - Do you walk your dog off-leash? What is your preference for when I care for them? - If I were to take your dog to a local park or trail, is your dog comfortable in a car? I have a doggy hammock that will keep them very secure in the back seat of my SUV, but I would like to make sure they are comfortable in traveling first. - Are there specific things that scare your dog (e.g. vacuum cleaner, door bells, etc.)? If I will be caring for your dog in your home, I would like to vacuum to make sure it is hair-free the way you left it, but I would like to know if your dog will be upset by a vacuum. - If your dog gets messy, is your dog comfortable with baths? I have quite a bit of experience bathing animals from when I worked with my grandmother. - Does your dog like swimming? I frequently visit Jewel Lake, which is known for being an excellent doggy swimming hole. And how well does your dog swim (beginner or experienced)? - Does your dog have any diet concerns or special needs? - What veterinarian do you use? - Is your dog taking any medications and is there a preferred way they would like to receive them that they are most comfortable with? - Does your dog have any behavioral issues (e.g. aggressive towards other dogs)? - What is your dog’s normal routine? The better I can accommodate what they are used to, the smoother stay they will have while you’re gone. - Is your dog allowed on furniture and are there and household boundaries you would like me to enforce while you are gone?
