Pet care experience
I’ve had a love for dogs ever since I was little, and in the past 10 years I’ve fostered rescue dogs, raised and trained service dogs, and adopted two of my own. I’m the go-to dog person with all my friends & family, and I just really enjoy being around them. I plan to open a dog training business in a few years once I’m ready for that step, so I’m happy to work with your dogs on walks if you want as well just for the experience.
Reviews
Jennifer is wonderful. We came home to two well cared for pets. We can’t thank her enough!
Jennifer watched my dog Leo during our family vacation. She did such a wonderful job taking care Leo and went beyond to take care Leo when she felt she needs to. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our dog. She send us pictures daily and gave us her feedback on Leo. Jennifer thank you very much! You are awesome! We will definitely use her again in the future.
Having known Jen for over 3 years now, there’s no one I would trust more to care for my animals. She not only has experience raising a service-dog-in-training, but also fostered my current dog before my family and I adopted her. She goes above and beyond with her care for any animal she comes in contact with, is always punctual, attentive, and hardworking. I can assure you your dogs will love Jen as soon as they meet her.
Jennifer was absolutely wonderful! Very communicative and asked great questions. My pup was in good hands!
About Jennifer S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
On walks I always make sure the dog is properly secured on leash and typically stay away from other people and dogs, just to make sure everyone is comfortable. I have experience working with many types of dog walking & training tools, so whatever you use for your dog is fine with me. I respect the rules you have for your dogs on walks, and we can either do structured walks or fun walks (“sniff-aris” as I like to call them!).
Information Jennifer S. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences. I would like to know the activity level, any habits that I should be aware of (jumping on people, snatching up items from the ground, tugging on the leash, chasing squirrels, etc.), and allergies to make sure that I can properly care for the dog and we both have the most positive experience together.
A typical day
Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I’ll always cater to your request because you know your dog best. Whether it’s playtime with their favorite toy or going on walks, I always make sure your dog will be happy and fulfilled while you’re away.

Availability
I currently work full time and also am in grad school, so during the week I’m generally not available but I can be fairly flexible on my weekend schedule while you are out & about!
