You Leave Em’, I’ll Love Em’
Pet care experience
I have an (on campus) teacher’s schedule (starting 8/3/23) which allows me a lot of availability on evenings, weekends and summer vacation to take care of your pets. I’m a single mom, so there are times that my girls, ages 3, 12 and 15, will be around to help with dogs boarding with us. Lots more loving for your pets! I am able to give shots as well as medication when needed (unless during the school workday). I also have experience taking care of paralyzed senior pups. Your dog will love the fenced in shaded backyard and and the abililty to get fresh air while playing outside. A note on a negative review on feeding (typically first time clients are the pups who struggle): Please understand EVERYTHING IS NEW Your dog's thoughts might look like this... "Where am I? Am I safe? What do I do? I am scared." I do my best to provide a calm quiet environment, reliable routine & schedule that your dog can depend on. I don't pressure them during this stage. Your dog may not eat or want to potty. They might be too scared to eat, drink, or potty for the first day or so (some take a full 3 days). I will keep you updated on their eating habits. I can also offer to mix bone broth with dry food for those that hold out on eating too long. Please note that with one child's anxiety, due to past trauma, I do not allow strangers into our home. If your pup has some anxiety walking in with me I will have you help get them to the door. I will allow them to decompress between the door and baby gate for a while so that they can take in the new environment on their own terms.
Reviews
Jennifer is great. We have used her multiple times and love her. She always keeps us updated and goes above and beyond to take care of our dog.
Jennifer did a great job communicating and sending pictures. She also had to deal with a picky eater. Thanks for your work, Jennifer.
Definitely will be using Jennifer again for her services. Thank you!!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard with privacy fencing. Both gates are padlocked for security. I also have a 42 inch wall mounted gate about 6 foot back from the front door. Before the front door is ever opened everyone in the household must make sure that that area is dog free so that no one can jet out the door.
Home
Information Jennifer M. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if your dog will slip out the front door when someone is coming in or out. If so, extra procausions will be made to secure them before opening the door. If your dog has anxiety I will need to know so that we can discuss if my place is a good fit in advance since there are big chunks of time they would be home alone during the school/work day.
A typical day
We keep tennis balls handy for tossing around in the back yard and there are plenty of opportunities for squirrel watching as well. For dogs who enjoys water play there is a mister system that can be turned on.

Availability
Weekdays during the school year (starting 8/3/23-5/24/24) they receive bathroom breaks before and after the school day due to no one being home at that time. During the summer, weekends and school day evenings, they will get breaks as frequently as they need them.
