Peace of Mind Pet Care

Having little dogs my whole entire life, I know what it is like to have to leave home and fret over the WHO, WHERE and HOW'S of finding "peace of mind" pet care. I understand the dilemma of reliability, security even the financial practicalities. As a parent, I not only want MY pets to be safe and comfortable but loved as well. I want for YOUR fur babies to receive all the comforts and security that an in-home dwelling can provide. WITH all the love as myself being their own personal caregiver. I truly love little furry critters. I am the person that says "Hi" to dogs. I am the person that will directly bee-line to any cute little foo foo just to tell them how beautiful and special they are. Yes, I am the person that kisses your pet on site. Without hesitation, give me a call I am like,,, a trip to Grandma's house! I can promise full body massage, warm blankets, and a window's view to the world! Full conversations, treat time and an over abundance of love and attention. An ample size fenced-in back yard. A sniffers pawadise. The accommodations include two other canine housemates and that's it! My own little 12ish pounders. Older dogs they are. Actually, If it were up to me, I would have a zoo full of animals. Another dog, a cat or two, a bunny, I love guinea pigs! I love pigs! I would have a few rodents, I like them too. But, that would not be practical. Therefore, I will suffice on an occasional visitor. Call today, to reserve my 5 star hotel over here in White Oak Estates Jacksonville, NC. I am eager to meet the love of your life and give them the home away from home they deserve.

I am so grateful that a friend recommended KenLynn to sit for my Yorkie. KenLynn was amazing at communicating with me and sent me adorable pictures of my Yorkie while I was away. I have already requested her to dog sit again.

Happy to have found KenLynn as our dog sitter. We were out of town long term and KenLynn cared for our dog the entire time. We are so thankful for her 🙏🏻

Safety, trust & environment

I care for your beloved because you have entrusted me to do so. They are mine; they belong to me if only for a short while. I am in tune with their whereabouts, clean water, food and frequent potty break necessities. Are they happy, bored? Are they warm, cold? Where is their blanky, their toys and their bed? Stairs are closed off during guest time. I even sleep on the couch to avoid these stairs and tall beds. No falls! What's on the floor? Scanning for small bits they may ingest or items that will come apart. Poison control awareness! Certain plants and chemicals are a no-no! My fence is new, 8 ft. tall and safe guarded from escapees or trespassers be it human or otherwise. We don't even go in the front yard. WE STAY HOME. That is where your pet is the safest. Right here. I don't walk your dog out on the street because I don't trust negligent pet owners. As much as I would like to take your Fifi or Fido out with me as arm candy, I don't. We stay right here. Out of respect for you the parent and your fur babies, the service I provide is strictly for non-aggressive dogs 40 lbs. and under. I'm very good at reading body language and identifying threats. The doors stay locked, as my home-based business often times serves customers. That for sure will safeguard against your dog bolting or following someone out the door. As far as safety and well-being of your pet, I respect your food provisions and meal plans. Medication is administered exactly as prescribed.

A typical day

I have a huge toy box and a huge picture window to the world. Multiple bed choices and a fully enclosed, fully safe back yard. A sniffers pawadise! With one puppy-eyed look, here come love. Yes, I may look normal, but I talk to dogs, kiss 'em too! When night times rolls around, so do warm blankets and snuggles. Not to mention, parentally approved breakfast, dinner and snacks.

0 to 15 lbs
