Why your pet will love Jen

I’m based in St Albans, and for the last 10 years animals have been a steady part of my everyday life. I love getting to know each pet’s little routines and quirks, and I’m happiest when they’re settled enough to snooze at my feet or nose around the garden like they own the place.

I offer boarding, house sitting, and home visits, and I keep families in the loop with regular photo updates so you can actually see how your pet is doing. If your dog or cat needs medication, I’m comfortable administering it calmly and consistently. I also have a vehicle, which makes pick-ups, drop-offs, and the occasional practical trip easy to manage.

When your pet stays with me, they’ll be in my streamside bungalow in a private close that backs onto a chalk stream with tree-lined banks and a quiet, natural outlook. Visiting pets have a large room with scenic patio doors and plenty of space to stretch out, plus outdoor time on a long lead where they can explore, relax in the shade under the trees, and watch the wildlife. They’ll also get plenty of company and attention out and about with me and my partner.

Your pet's space

House · 54 m²

Garden · 123456 m²

I live in a bungaliow, in a private clos, that backs onto a chalk stream, with tree lined banks and a quiet, unspoilt, natural outlook. Visiting pets have a large room, with scenic patio doors, and pleanty of space to move around, & can sit outside on a long lead with freedom to explore as they like or relax, in the shade under the trees, whilst watching the wildlife,.as well as plenty of time and attention out and about with myself and my partner. I don't let pets in my care off-lead out of the house, even if I've known them years, for the peace of mind of both owner & myself and to ensure their safety at all times when away from home. Having a vehicle also makes it easy for me to handle pick-ups, drop-offs, or trips if needed.
