Dogs make life complete!

Pet care experience

*** HUGE FENCED IN BACKYARD *** Pets are an important part of the family! And your dog will be treated as one. I'm a responsible and loving owner of Lucy (a 7yo Boston Terrier) and Maggie May (a 1yo mix). Along with my two boys, we couldn't imagine life without our girls. Your pet will get lots of love and care from the entire family. And working from home means that I'm also available throughout the day! Whether your pooch needs to burn off energy and get lots of interaction or need an extra cuddle (like my Lucy), I understand what your dog may need and give them the attention they deserve. For dogs visiting with us, we have a HUGE backyard that is completely fenced in. Your dog will have loads of space to roam, run and even nap (one of Lucy's favorite things to do is to nap on our deck in the sun). Having a rescue dog myself, I understand that each pet has their own personality and sometimes special needs. I'm interested in connecting with your dog so they have a fun time and get the care they need. I've spent numerous hours going to professional training classes for both of my dogs to better understand their behaviors and help them be the best dogs they can be while also shaping me to be the best owner I can be. I also personally groom our dogs on a regular basis, from shampooing to brushing to nail trimming. I believe hands-on care is the best. Our lives simply wouldn't be complete without our little Lucy and Maggie May. Let me welcome your special one into my care.

Jennifer was great. My two pups stayed with her for a few days and loved it. She sends lots of pictures so you always know what your little fur babies are up to!

Thank you for taking such good care of our Australian Labradoodle puppy, Wesley. We really appreciated your updates and pictures throughout his stay. He enjoyed playing with the other dogs, and fell asleep within minutes of arriving at home. We look forward to having Wesley staying with you again. Thank you very much!

Could not have gone better. Jennifer was wonderful with Mac, who clearly enjoyed his stay in her home. She kept me informed with daily messages and photos, which gave me wonderful peace of mind while I was away.

Information Jennifer H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what your dog's personality is. Do they have any special quirks? Also, how well do they react to unknown dogs or people (important when I'm out walking!) Does your dog have any aggression issues or separation anxiety? Having a rescue dog myself, I understand that each dog has their own unique personality and needs. If your dog will be visiting with us, it's extremely important they are up to date on their vaccines/shots and flea/tick care. We all want happy and healthy dogs!

A typical day

Dogs that stay with us will enjoy our immense backyard that is completely fenced in. With lots of room to roam, run, play and "go fetch," your pooch will get plenty of fresh air and exercise. Larger dogs will also get at least one walk per day to make sure they get enough exercise. (That is, if they aren't worn out from playing.)
