Availability

Pet sitting is my full time career. Between Chris, my husband and myself someone is always home to give fur-babies love. We have designated areas to feed separate to avoid resource protection. We can provide exercise for high energy pups and couch cuddles for the snuggle bugs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard. My dogs are crate trained and they sleep in at night 50% off the time. The rest of the time they have beds in our room that they enjoy as well. I do not require crate training for boarding. I try my best to get as much information on how you care for your pet and try my best to care for them as you would while they are in my care.

Pet care experience

I have just relocated to Apache Junction from the north GA mountains. I have been a animal lover my whole life I have cared for all types of pets including dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, peacocks, lizards, turtles, rats and guinea pigs.. I am a former volunteer at a local humane society as a dog walker so I have experienced with shy and scared dogs. I have 2 dogs of my own who enjoys roaming our fenced yard. I know what it is like to have to leave them with someone and the worried that they will be well cared for and I want to help other pet parents ease that worry knowing that their pets are safe and are having a stress free stay at my home. My husband has worked a second job at a major retailer that offers boarding and knows how often dogs actually get human interaction and we want to provide a better solution then a "big box" retail environment for your dog. We hope we can be their home away from home for you. Please review prices before submitting booking request. While I am willing to work with you on rates for multiple drop in and or extended stay. Keep in mind that Rover keeps 20% off my rate and I still have to set aside gas money and taxes for all Rover bookings. I.e. a $20 drop in for 1 dog takes 15 minutes to get there 30 minutes drop in 15 minutes to get home, then it is less then $10 an hour. This is why extra dogs and holidays are more. Thanks

Jennifer was amazing! We would absolutely rebook. We could tell immediately she is a dog lover, knowledgeable on dog behavior, and would make our dog feel right at home. She kept us updated with photos, and even transported our dog to and from our wedding! We felt so comfortable leaving our furbaby with Jennifer and are so thankful for a fantastic experience!
