Information Jennifer M. would like to know about your pet

Please provide me a list of your pets favorite things, daily routine and eating schedule. Is your pet friendly with other animals? If not which signs I may need to be aware of. That way I can make adjustments where needed.

A typical day

The morning routine begins at 7:30-8:00 A.M. Pups are taken outside into the yard for a potty break and play time. We will come in and Pups will have breakfast. I do separate Pups for breakfast and dinner so no one gets into another's food. Your pet will be provided unlimited potty breaks throughout the day. My home is a pet friendly home...so your pet is free to make themselves comfortable wherever they like in my home. We go for a walk to the park a block away before dinner once / twice a day depending on the weather. Your Pup/pet will be served dinner about 6 PM unless otherwise directed. I do like to reward and give treats as long as you are ok with the treats provided. Lots of hugs / love provided for your pet and one last potty break before bed around 9:30-10 PM. Happy House Sitting😊

She was very nice. Took care of my old, needy, velcro dog very well. Took her on walks around the neighborhood. Her dog is very friendly as well

My dog gab was always happy to see Jennifer and loved to hang out with her. She really cares about all animals and is a very good person.

Sadie, my rescue dog, loves it when I board her with Jen; and I do, too. Jen has looked after Sadie for five years. Her loving, attentive and disciplined care of Sadie lets me travel with ease. The first time l left her with Jen, Sadie was not completely housebroken. When I returned to collect her, Sadie proudly showed me how she told Jen she needed to potty! Jen has a big, fenced in backyard for dogs to romp, and comfortable beds in her home for doggie sleepovers. She diligently honors your dog’s dietary, medical and exercise requirements. And if you want, for an additional fee, she will groom your dog for you. It a joy to see a happy, aspiffy Sadie when I collect her! And while she’s tickled wiggly to see me, Sadie always saves her best kiss for a goodbye one for Jen. ✨✨✨✨✨I give her boarding five stars!

“Amazing sitter! Very dependable, communicative, and kind. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. My dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely book again!”
