❤️🐾 I AM the Dogmom! 🐾❤️

Pet care experience

I have been proudly owned by dogs since I was 7 years old. I love dogs. My dogs. Your dogs. Everyone's dogs. I am currently the proud dogmom of two sweet, loving, mostly deaf, senior female Cocker Spaniels. PaTutti is 13 years old, and Trubby is 10 years old. They are sweet old girls that sleep most of the day. 😁 Seniors rock!! I have rescued my last several dogs from my local animal shelter, and I especially love senior and special needs dogs. My two most-senior boys (both 15+ years old) peacefully crossed Rainbow Bridge over the past year. We cannot let those we love the most suffer, no matter how much it breaks our heart to let them go. I'm experienced with diabetic dogs, (my blind English Setter was diagnosed diabetic at the age of 12; and, he lived to the ripe old age of almost 15) and I can administer insulin and other medications. I know all of the "pill-giving secrets." I am retired and have all day to love your dog and make them feel at home. I am also a professional photographer, and would be thrilled to take photographs of your beloved dog -- I can capture their personality! I volunteered at my local animal shelter for 13 years and have photographed every breed imaginable! I have a fenced-in yard and my lawns are always pesticide- and fertilizer-free. (I might have some dandelions, but they make the bees happy!) 🐝

Jerri is wonderful and so kind to my 2 German Shorthairs! She cuddles with them on the couch and gives them so much attention and makes them part of her home. She evens makes special bags and scarves with their names on everything! She definitely goes above and beyond taking the best care of them both. I will always trust her and know they are in good hands when we need a baby sitter.

As always, Jerri was so great! One of my dogs has allergies, and Jerri takes such good care of him. She is great with his medicine and keeps me posted on how he is doing. She loves him like one of her own.

My dogs love me. But when I drop them off to Jerri, they are so happy they don’t even look back to say goodbye! She’s definitely a dog person and will love and care for your dogs like they’re her own.

I know Remi is loved and taken care of with Jerri. She's a blessing to have for your pooch!

Information Jerri S. would like to know about your pet

I always require a "Meet and Greet" with your dog before I commit to a boarding or day care visit with a new client. I like to assess your dog's personality, as I have to assure the safety and well-being of my own senior girls in my home. Your dog needs to be spayed/neutered to stay at my house. They will also need to be up-to-date on ALL vaccinations, including rabies, DHPP, lepto and bordetella. My backyard borders the forest, so flea/tick meds are also required to keep your pup critter-free. (Please provide medical records before our Meet and Greet.) I need to know your dog's feeding schedule, and I would like you to bring food along so that your dog's tummy doesn't become irritated with non-familiar food. Please bring the contact information for your veterinarian. If your dog(s) normally sleeps in a crate oe a special bed at night, I would ask that you please provide their crate and/or bed.

A typical day

I will find out about your dog(s) before you leave them with me. Does she like car rides? Does he like walks? Does she like to play fetch? Do they love the water? (I have both a splash pad and wading pool for summer fun!) Or, would he just appreciate cuddles and snuggles on the couch? Whatever your dog/dogs like(s) to do, they will be able to do here at my house.
