I am a Certified Veterinary Technician with 20 plus years of pet sitting experience. I truly love each and everyone of my clients and strive to do the very best for the pups and cats in my care.
I enjoy all the different breeds and personalities of the dogs. Each one is unique! I love it when they are dropped off, so happy and excited. Cuddling with them is a highpoint of any stay. The most joyous is when pup parents pick them up! Happy dances all the way around! I really love to see the reunions!
Your dog stays in my home and is treated as one of the family.
I am a certified veterinary technician and am experienced at giving medications.
If it is a cat you need care for, I can come to your house within 10 miles(+$2.00/mile after 10 miles) to feed them, give medications(+%10.00/cat), clean litter boxes and generally keep an eye on your house. I have reference for in home service if you would like to contact them.

Lynn was great to our two dogs while we were on vacation. She kept us updated on how they were doing and even texted us pictures. She gave one of our dogs his daily pain medication and was very flexible with drop off and pick up time.

Lynn has been great! We were able to do a short test run while we did errands to make sure she was a good fit. Our dog sounded like she did well. We loved the safety the home has to make us feel like our dog is in good hands. Cute place, lovely farm. Although we have booked last min for the 2019 Thanksgiving holiday and have yet to leave the dog with her while we are away, we feel like we are leaving our dog with a friend for a reasonable cost. Lynn is worth the drive. The cost is much less then a cold boarding kennel. Lynn is the kind of person that treats you like she has always known you, lets you rant about your life and animals. Iv never felt this great about going out of town and leaving the dogs with someone. Now if only she would board our pet pigs too, we would be all set!

It was great knowing Murphy was safe, but not living in kennel, while we were on vacation. I would definitely use Jaws, Paws and Claws again.

Lynn was absolutely wonderful with my fur baby, Lily! She provided daily updates with pictures and I could tell how happy Lily was. The yard was large enough to run and play along with a nice kennel space if needed. I would highly recommend Jaws, Paws and Claws. I live in the Plymouth area and for me, it was 100% worth it to travel the 30-40 minutes knowing that Lily was being cared for with a trusted individual.

Lynn is the best dog sitter I could have ever asked for! I was actually referred to her by another customer. She's very accommodating and flexible and super sweet to our 2 little princesses. We have used her several times and we recommend her for any dog type. She's very knowledgeable when it comes to animals and she makes any dog welcome in her home. Thanks Lynn for all the help with taking care of our pups and for making every time a great experience!
