Meet Your Dog's New Best Friend!
Pet care experience
Dog lover to the extreme! I have two at home, a border collie and a harrier-mix, both very well socialized around other dogs. I live in a two bedroom home next to Northeast with a large, fully fenced in yard. I live a mile from the Saint Anthony Dog Park. I like to go on long walks around the city and to the dog park so if you want lots of exercise for your dog(s) I've got you covered! I live close enough to work to let the pups out in the afternoon while I am working if you need them to stay during the week. There is also plenty of space inside for your dog to get comfy too - I want them feel like it's their home too! I am a true believer in spending quality time with dogs. By this I mean I find it important to keep my dogs not only physically active but mentally stimulated as well. I always have treats in my house so I can work on tricks (new and old). I have done obedience training with both of my dogs, and have done two levels of agility with my border collie, and just finished a treibball (herding) class which was a lot of fun. Feel free to set up a time with me to stop over with your dogs to see the place and meet me and my dogs. I would love to help you out! About this sitter: Besides spending time with my dogs I am an avid music lover! I play in a local indie/folk rock band and love to play shows and go see other bands as much as can. I also try to be as active as I can so when I am not running with my dogs I am playing tennis, volleyball or hockey outside. If you want to know more about me, please ask! :) Why I love dog sitting I have always had dogs growing up, but my passion for dogs/animals really grew when I got my own. I fell in love! I got my first dog a little over 2 years ago from the humane society, and waited only 2 months to get another. They have been best friends ever since. Honestly couldn't imagine my life without them! About my yard Backyard is fully fenced. There is a gate in the back and front and is chain-linked.
Reviews
Jennifer did a wonderful job taking care of our two dogs. Even though it was a short stay, she sent plenty of photos and updates, which we love getting! The dogs loved the space to run around in her yard and really seemed to have a great time. We definitely recommend her!
Jennifer was great! She kept Meiko busy for the entire weekend and left us with a very tired,happy puppy. She sent a ton of photos and always made sure we knew what Meiko was up to. Highly recommended!
We found a perfect sitter! Jennifer is kind and caring and Crystal let us know that. It was a special weekend for us and we left Crystal in perfect hands. We received photos which we loved and passed around the dinner table. Thank you so much!! :) See you soon!
Jennifer was an awesome sitter! I left my two border collies with her for four days and they had an awesome time. She sent me tons of adorable pictures, updates on what they were doing and how things were going. Her two dogs were really awesome companions for my pups as well. I was nervous to leave my boys with a new sitter since they're highly active dogs and need a lot of attention, so Jennifer was a perfect fit since she has a border collie herself. I will definitely have her watch my dogs again in the future.

Information Jennifer P. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences whatsoever. Big, small, shy, overly friendly, whatever! If you dog jumps or licks me to death I really don't mind. :) I only ask that they are somewhat sociable around my dogs because I would prefer not to keep them separate. More fun that way :)
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks I live close to the dog park so I usually walk them there or to a park in Northeast. I don't take the busy roads to get there, I walk in the quiet neighborhoods. I typically jog with my dogs but that is totally your preference! Your dog's sleeping arrangement They can sleep on the bed with me if they choose :) Otherwise I have two big couches or a doggy bed that my dogs never use. If they like it cool I have hardwood floors. My dogs sleep with me in the bed and end up moving to the floor by the next morning. Time I'll spend with your dog Weekends I can spend all day with them. I work 8-5 Mon-Fri but can let them out for an hour in the afternoon. After work I can spend all night with them! Whatever your preference!
