Safety, trust & environment

At my home, pups rule, but safety first! Your pup(s) like mine are welcome on the furniture because who wants to take a nap on the floor; but should you have other rules for your home, I will respect your wishes. Also, I have a fenced in backyard with artificial grass which makes playdates safe and convenient. Should your pup(s) need some company, I have two social butterflies who love to entertain.

Information Jennifer S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have a preferences for activities or if you dog/cat(s) have any specific likes/dislikes. Also please let me know how they do with other dogs, children and people.

A typical day

On a given day with your lovely pet, I would make sure to take them on a walk around the neighborhood, challenge them with treat puzzles, command training and play time.

Pet care experience

Ever since I was young, I have loved animals. I trained my 11yo rescue pup, Louis, many years ago to be a therapy dog and have been volunteering for several years now. I also have a 2yo pup, Linus which I have been training since a puppy. So, I know how important it is to be consistent with the rules of your household. Now owning a senior pup, I know how critical it is to be in tune with them on a daily basis to ensure they continue in good health. Through the past few years, I have learned how to administer medications and wrap up injuries.

Thanks again to Jennifer for taking amazing care of our kitty, Pokey! As usual Jennifer was thorough, sent many sweet pictures, and described her time with Pokey lovingly. Pokey just had a dental cleaning before our trip and Jennifer specifically followed all previous and new instructions to a tee. We love it when she cares for Pokey. 💙🤍🐈‍⬛💚❤️

As before, Jen did an awesome job with our cats! She is responsible, reliable, and great to work with. She also sent us pictures of our cats and summaries of the visits, which we loved. 5 stars, and highly recommend!

Jen took such great care of our cats! I appreciated her thoroughness and attention to detail. I also loved reading the visit summaries and seeing the pictures. I loved seeing how quickly our cats warmed up to her - amazing given that we have one especially shy cat! I highly recommend Jen!
