Experienced dog owner
Pet care experience
I have had dogs my entire life and come from a huge dog-loving family. I have owned, cared for and trained many different breeds: Labradors, Great Danes, Great Pyrenees, Basset Hound, and Shar Pei/Rottweiler mix. I love dogs very much but recently lost both my senior dogs (ages 10 and 15). I am permanently teleworking from home, so I can take short breaks throughout the day to let dogs outside. My husband and I live in a townhouse with a small fenced-in yard. I believe that taking dogs out on walks is important for their health and will try to take your dog(s) out for at 30-45 minutes a day (sometimes more). I can make sure they get outside time (for walks or playtime in our fenced-in yard) in the morning, during lunch and in the evening as needed. I know how much pets mean to their owners and would treat your animal like my own. We let our dogs up on the couch (if that's something you allow) and have a crate if necessary.
Reviews
Jennifer is truly amazing, she really loves the puppies she take care of, my baby is super happy every time she comes home to drop in on him and I can't be more grateful for all the love she pours on my baby boy.
As always Jennifer was amazing! Took great care of my pup. My pitty has some anxiety issues and Jennifer and her husband went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable during his 4 night stay. They played a lot of interactive games with him and spoiled him. He was a very happy pup!
Jennifer is amazing! She took really good care of my pup Jax. I left him with Jennifer for an overnight stay to see how he would do prior to a longer stay I booked. He can be nervous in new environments but she knew exactly what to do to make him feel more comfortable. She sent me several updates with photos which definitely put me at ease. She went out of her way and had extra toys for Jax too. She played several games with him and he just looked like he was having so much fun! Thanks again Jennifer! I’m looking forward to our future booking ?
Jennifer has been fantastic w my dog, Bella. I will continue to use her services because she clearly communicates expectations for everyone and delivers accordingly.

I have a small, fenced-in yard. I have a young basset hound and I live with my husband in our townhouse. We have a fenced porch that dogs can go outside to enjoy the weather when it is nice outside, while I work on my laptop. I firmly believe in taking dogs for regular walks and will make sure they go out for 30-45 minutes every day and enjoy indoor or backyard playtime as well.
Home
Information Jennifer N. would like to know about your pet
I do not feel comfortable taking dogs that have shown aggression or bitten adults before (but I can provide/suggest some training techniques to assist if your dog has had this issue). I will need to know if your pets are updated on current shots as well as any allergies or things you don't want them to have/do. I can work on training if you would like that as well.
A typical day
I love getting special treats for your pups. I have a number of dog toys and kongs for them to play with and stay stimulated. Every day consists of exercising walks, play and time outside. There is a park nearby that I will take dogs to for a walk if they are able to go for a ride in my car.

Availability
Since I am working at home, I can be very flexible with taking dogs on walks and letting them outside in our fenced-in backyard depending on their usual schedule.
