Safety, trust & environment

Your dog will never be left unattended or alone in a yard. In my house, your dog can sleep in the bed if they like (and you OK it). My own dog is a 9 year old trained therapy dog. She is calm, sweet, and gets along with all dogs both big and small, chill or playful. She'll be happy to share her home. I use positive reinforcement only.

Information Jennifer S. would like to know about your pet

Ahead of time, it’s important to know about things like medication, feeding schedules, any things to avoid like food allergies, and also what things they loooove. For walking, it’s helpful to know their favorite routes, and how they react to other people, dogs, or other stimuli (like squirrels!)

A typical day

Your dog will be spoiled and kept safe. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood with lots of wonderful walking trails for dog-walks. For walks, I’ll ensure they enjoy every sniff, go potty, and get all the exercise they need to feel satisfied. For doggy daycare, the typical day will involve plenty of walks for those energetic and adventurous pups, lots of cuddles for those pups who like to snuggle, plenty of playtime, and regularly scheduled mealtimes. Our home environment is relaxed and I only take up to two dogs at a time, so your pup will be sure to get plenty of attention.

As usual, our experience with Jennifer was outstanding. Stella is happy when I pull up to Jennifer's home. She knows (and we know) she will be loved and cared for as if she was at home. I would 100% recommend Jennifer and look forward to booking again soon.

Jennifer was an excellent host. She treated my dog as her own- several walks a day and lots of play time. Jennifer was accommodating to early morning/ evening drop-off/pick-up, sent a ton of photos and was very easy to communicate with. My dog had a great time and I would 100% recommend. Looking forward to using her again in the future.

Jennifer took great care of Sophie. This was the first time that Sophie was in her care. She did a phenomenal job of sending pics and videos of Sophie. Jennifer was accommodating to our schedule and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her. Will definitely keep Sophie with her in future.

Jennifer was great with Penny. We received plenty of photo updates and it was clear she had plenty of walks and love while we were out of town.
