Here to help with ur family pets!

Pet care experience

Hi! I live in Colonie, and take care of dogs full time. I was a nanny for 20 yrs and some of the families I took care of have pets, so when they go out of town i'm usually the one they ask to watch over and take care of the other love of their lives! I had a dog, Harley, he had my heart and always will. He passed away on July 10th, 2018. He was 14 and 2 months. I miss him so much. I got him when he was 8wks old, he was a black lab/English bulldog. I have my own transportation, and would love to help out and take care of your pets while your away at work, out of town on vacation, etc. I'm only 5 minutes from the Albany airport so it's very convenient for drop off and pick ups. Why I love dog sitting My family has always owned a dog. Even as we all got older and moved out on our own, my siblings and mom have always continued to have dogs. About my yard My house is on about an acre. I have a good size back yard. About 800sq ft is fenced in. Then i have a lot that is open. The front of the house is about 80ft from the road. My experience administering medication Yes as long as the animal is fine with a "stranger" giving it to them. And i would like families to send their dogs with the food and treats their dogs enjoy. They can also send any toys, bedding, etc so their dog feels more comfortable :)

I have used her several times with 4 different dogs. She does very well with the dogs and they love playing with other dogs there. Jennifer is very accommodating and she sends updates everyday.

Our senior dog has been staying with Jennifer since he was about 2 years old. Jennifer loves dogs, has a clean home, a fenced in yard, and takes really good care of our pup. 💜

Here's where we'll take our walks There are a lot of dead ends and circles in my area. Im right across the street from a neighborhood i can walk them there. Your dog's sleeping arrangement I put a sheet over my blankets, the dogs usually sleep in my room on the bed, or in their doggie bed on the floor, etc. I also have a crate my dog use to use. If you crate your dog then id crate it. Im fine with having your dogs crate and any bedding, etc here that he/she needs to be comfortable. Time I'll spend with your dog Im home a lot, I don’t have a job I leave for during the day or night. I’m gone a couple of hours here and there to maybe grab lunch or dinner, see a movie, have dinner with family, grocery shop, run errands, etc.
