Caring Canine Companion

I have lots of canine experience as a owner and a foster home. I have volunteered and been a foster home for Midwest Dachshund Rescue. I have transported, fostered and helped organized fundraisers for the organization. I have lots of experience with dogs with illnesses, recovering from surgery or that have special needs. I currently have a sanctuary foster dog that is diabetic. Therefore, I am well versed in giving medications and insulin shots. Along with volunteering for rescues, I have pet sat at my home and dog walked for many years. I have worked with a behavioral dog trainer for one of my own dogs and have insight on working with dogs that are skittish. I have lots of references I can share from other clients.

Our 3 pups had an amazing visit. They have all been sleeping in the couch since we got home. I was surprised when Jennifer accepted our rather late request, especially for 3 dogs, 1 being 8 months old. Many photos, lots of love!

The visit seems to go great. From the pictures I received it look like my dog Sandy had a good time. I will be using Jennifer again. Her and her husband were very nice. I am sure Sandy loved the back yard they have because she does not get to play and run around our at home.

Communication was awesome. Very nice family. Grace had a great time. She looked sad to leave. Will definitely use Jennifer in the future.
