Pet care experience

Zoo keeper turned pet care giver!

For over 18 years I have cared for dogs, cats, and a variety of exotic animals (large and small). I have 10 years of zoo keeping experience, 5 years as a wildlife rehabber, plus I also foster dogs for a local rescue. I have cared for dogs in my home, gone to others homes to care for cats/dogs, and I can also stop by for potty breaks/ walks. I am also able to give injections, eye/ear drops, and provide accurate medications.

Our girls were so happy staying with Jennifer and Michael! It was their first "sleepover" and they came back so happy and relaxed. We appreciate the communication and photos so much. Will definitely want them to stay again sometime. Thank you!!

Jennifer was very kind and loving to our dog. She was accommodating to us during a short notice holiday trip… she made us comfortable leaving and worry free

Safety, trust & environment

I have 4 very friendly dogs of my own that love making new friends and playing. My backyard is fenced in and we have a dog door for up to 100lb dogs. Puppies stay in crates at night or when I am not home. Older dogs that are well behaved can be left to lounge on the couch or a dog bed.

Pets

A typical day

I love to take my dogs on walks to pet friendly stores within a mile of my house. They will also enjoy free play time in the fenced in backyard full of dog toys.

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Jennifer & Michael can host up to 2 pets per night
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medications, fears, or behaviors that I should be aware of. I also like to know which breed and size so I can be prepared for them. Let me know, if they like to play or prefer to cuddle, either of which is fine with me.
