“Lanae was wonderful to our pup. She was willing to take him last minute, which saved us from missing our vacation.

About: We are Larry and Jen. We love all things furry. • We've lived in our home (on a dead-end county road) for 30 years. • There have always been dogs (big and small) and cats inside our home. • Some may say we love our pets more than our kids. :P • I (Jen) own my an online business and work part-time at home. • Larry works in New Paris, IN, four days per week. He comes home every day for lunch. • In our home, we currently have two dogs: a 9-mo-old cattle doodle (who loves everything and everyone) and a 14-yr-old toy schnauzer heading toward the rainbow bridge. Our pets are always spayed/neutered/vaccinated/etc. • We have a big backyard with a small portion fenced in to keep our pets safe. We also have a fenced-in pool (all dogs welcome). • Our kids are all married, and the grandchildren live 900 miles away. So, most of the time, it's just us here. • Our home is set up for pet care with room for cages and play yards. Our upstairs and downstairs are both gated off (we don't use either). • We have a mid-size doggie door that leads from the house to the fenced yard.

About: I've taken care of pets since I can remember. This past year I have started dog sitting for friends and family and they have trusted me to care for their animals like I would for my own. I am currently working part-time and am enrolled in college, doing mostly online work. I am able to work around my work schedule and leave periodically if needed to care for a pet. I make sure to have lots of outside time with my own pets. We play fetch and go on walks daily. I have a fenced in yard to make sure my pets are safe.

Jennifer & Larry W.
“We have a lab/mastiff mix and 7 cats. When Jennifer and Larry come to watch them they all swarm. They don’t even miss us. Jennifer and Larry keep up with the routines we have in place for the animals easily (we have a couple that need extra attention). We also have one runner who has gotten out with every other person who has watched her EXCEPT for Jennifer and Larry. I wholeheartedly and without reservations would recommend Jennifer and Larry, and my pets would too.”
