“We’ve trusted Jen with Lando for the past year and a half, and she has been such a blessing. Whether it’s daily walks, random weekends, or even while we’re away on a two-week vacation, we always know he’s in the best hands.

Her love for Lando and all the dogs she cares for shines through in the photos and updates she sends every day. It’s such a comfort knowing he’s happy, loved, and so well cared for. We couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Jen is the best! We’ve been with Jen for a year and a half and I can’t recommend her enough. She’s trustworthy and always on time! Rain, sleet or snow; Jen is there. I have to tell her not to come in inclement weather. That’s just how dedicated she is to ensuring our dog gets his daily exercise and love. Jen has also gone above and beyond when our dog decided to chew up his room door. She’s simply the best!”

“For those of you looking for someone to take care of your pet, I can strongly recommend Jen Vachris.

Jen has helped us in many ways in taking care of our Bernese Mountain dog Lu Lu.

From overnight stay at our home to "drop-in days" of walking, feeding and "hanging out for a bit”, you will not find anyone any more loving and enthusiastic about spending time with your pet.

Jen has a deep passion and love for animals, and she shares this passion and love every time she hangs out with Lu Lu. 

Our family strongly recommends Jen if the need for watching your pet arises.”

“I feel confident entrusting my dog to Jen, as I can tell she cares for each animal as if it was her own. We’ve used her for weekly dog walking as well as several days of petsitting for our dog and cat. Not only does she care, but she is quick to communicate and flexible with our variable schedule.”

“My family and I recently went on a trip and hired Jen to take care of our Labrador Retriever puppy, Miles. She went above and beyond to ensure he was perfectly cared for. Miles is completely smitten with Jen and gets SO excited the moment she steps into our house! She also walks several of our neighbors' dogs, and I know they love her just as much. Jen and her family are, without a doubt, some of the kindest people on earth. They take exceptional care of their own pets, as well as the ones they dog-sit and walk. Jen truly goes out of her way to make sure your fur babies are loved on while you're away. We highly recommend her services!”

“Having Jen pet sit and housesit brings valued peace of mind and every assurance that your pet is receiving loving and attentive care. We’ve been relying on Jen for about 3 years now!”

“I feel so fortunate to have had Jen recommended to me by a friend; she has been a God-send! 

I am the stereotypical millennial child-free dog mom... so I'm extra about my dogs.  And I trust Jen whole-heartedly with them!  Complicated instructions, special needs, on a schedule- no problem, she's on top of it!  I have utilized Jen's services for both drop-in visits and overnight stays at my house.  I trust her to stay in my home, and I come back to happy dogs and a clean house.  I love the daily check-ins and pictures I receive while gone; Jen's communication is incredible and really puts my mind at ease while away.  Her pricing is more than reasonable (I have literally tried to pay her more because she does THE MOST).  Jen is truly the best, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of pet walking/sitting services!”
