Pampering pups

Pet care experience

I am Jolene and I love to spend my time with animals. We had our first rescue 14 years ago and have pampered our rescue dogs ever since. In the time I have been caring for dogs I have learned how to give haircuts, administer injections, oral medication. And my heart has grows with each pup I meet. We would love to care and spoil your hypoallergenic fur family member anytime you need us. We currently have Rusty age 15. This old man keeps to himself as he is slowing down. Doggy diapers and a few medications for his arthritis keep him happy. He is starting to love his doggy stroller since he wants to go on walks but can’t keep up with his fur siblings Toodles age 5 thinks he’s the baby of the family. April age 5 has been with us for a couple of months. After being diagnosed with diabetes she found us. We do daily shots twice a day along with blood sugar testing. Their three human sibblings make sure there is plenty of love to go around.

I want to give a big shout out to Jolene for her boarding services!! I have a 13 yr old fur baby that deals with separation anxiety/attachment to her mommy as well as sensitivity issues due to past abuse. I had planned on going on vacation for a couple of weeks and was unable to take her with me, so was looking for someone/someplace that would be appropriate for her needs. After several failed attempts of asking people that I knew and looking into kennels, I was given the rover.com app to search out other options. Immediately after I read Jolene's profile, I knew that she was the one to care for my fur baby!! We did a meet & greet with her and her family/home and I was absolutely pleased with her knowledge and credentials of taking care of Jenny. I really liked that she took only one client at a time and knew about senior care. I went home and booked her for the stay! All through my time away, I received updates/pics every other day on Jenny's progress and activities that she was experiencing there. Let me just say that it made my vacation time more enjoyable knowing that my Jenny was being taken well care of and having fun herself....it was a big relief!! I totally recommend Jolene for boarding or sitting for your fur baby....it is well worth it!! I give a 2 thumbs up and a big smile!!! I will surely use her again when needed! Thanks Jolene for everything you did to make Jenny's stay there a fun and enjoyable time!!

Jolene is very nurturing and loves dogs. I have been fortunate to be able to leave my pup with her when I have to be away. Her own dogs are playful and well behaved. Mine gets so excited when we pull up to her house. . Bonus: if I ask her to she gives my dog a great haircut and trims nails. I would not leave my fur baby with anyone else.

Jolene is an excellent pet sitter. Our dog misses her when his time with Jolene is over. Would highly recommend Jolene as a pet sitter!

I have a fenced in yard as well as a few baby gates around the house to keep pups safe in our home. Dogs are AWLAYS leashed if outside away from the fenced in yard. I like to slowly introduce my dogs to new comers. Usually I will leash my dogs and new dogs and meet in the back yard. Leash is only temporary in the yard during the meeting phase.
