Pet care experience

Greetings, fellow animal lovers! My name is Jen. I live on 5 secluded acres with 1/4 acre fenced in play/potty area on Camano Island. Boarders will be housed in my sunroom which is part of my house. A 5x5 wire mesh kennel in aforementioned heated room with durable Kuranda bed and cozy blanket makes for a comfortable and safe stay. I board one pet at a time which means your furry baby gets all my focused attention. I spend most of my boarding days outside playing with my guests. If you struggle leaving your best friend, I’m the right fit for you. I’ve spent 15 years working in a vet clinic as an assistant, and I believe animal care is my purpose. I charge a flat rate for all inclusive stay. All guests are treated kindly, meticulously and carefully with all day attendance to needs, play, soothing care and affection. As a detail oriented and tidy individual myself with an eye for medical awareness, I’m an ideal fit for those who most often choose to stay home rather than board. I’m here and available for your pet needs and I’m at home and present 24/7 which means your pet is never alone and always in my care. I can accommodate medical needs as well such as Subcutaneous fluids, injections, oral medications...etc. as my background is one of animal medicine. I can also offer anal gland expression and nail trims providing your pet is amenable to handling. Please reach out with any inquiries and requests.... thank you ☺️ Stay Requirements: *Up to date vaccines (DHPP/Rabies/Bordetella). *Clean fecal evaluation by your attending vet up to 30 days prior to stay. *Flea treatment such as Advantage or Nexguard. I will provide a questionnaire when plans are made which is simply details of your pet to help me get to know him or her before we meet which helps me provide better care. At that time, please feel free to ask all about me 💚 I’m home everyday and all day which can put your anxious mind to ease because rest assured, my presence ensures their safety and comfort and even entertainment. I’m also an excellent option for post surgical boarding care. Care taking after major or minor surgery can be overwhelming and intimidating. Multiple medications combined with veterinarian recommended immobility and low key environment can be a stressful event for the whole family ….and especially the patient. I’m here to provide my skills and my constant accompaniment to your furry patient. I can provide an activity prohibitive environment combined with affection and careful attention to post surgical treatment. This gives your pet the needed environment to heal under my calm and capable goal of convalescence. Post surgical boarding charges are individually determined. I’m a multi tasker which means safety, comfort, fun, and health are always equally paramount as we spend our days deep in the details of the life of a dog and the value of that time together.

Jennifer is a reliable, committed care giver for my 13 yo cat Lucy! She follows my feeding and care guidelines, communicates continually while I’m gone via texts and pictures, and Lucy warmed up to her right away—loves her and feels safe and secure with Jen. Jennifer is knowledgeable on pet care from her experience as a vet assistant, as well, and she genuinely loves animals. I highly recommend Jen as a pet care giver!

I have known Jennifer now for 7+ years, she is one of the most compassionate, positive, people I know. She is very passionate about all animals, and with her experience with working at a Vet clinic for many many years makes her a great match for pet sitting. I myself have horses, dogs, cats, chickens you name it and I trust her 100% and know she always gives then the attention and care they need! I highly recommend her!

Jennifer is the biggest animal lover I’ve ever known! She relates to animals in a way that amazes me. She speaks to Every dog that comes in contact with her. She’ll be on the ground stroking their head and telling them how good they are. I’ve seen it a million times! They are all drawn to her. She will make them feel safe, calm and loved.
