A good pet sitter can mean total peace of mind.
(And new adventures for your furry family!)
Hi — I'm Jen Toomey! New Life In-home Pet Care is my licensed, bonded and insured pet-sitting business that delivers customized, in-home pet care in Lackawanna County. I'm also certified in Pet CPR!
I started NewLife in-home pet care when I realized how important it was for my own dogs to have only the best, most loving care when I couldn’t be at home. It was important to be able to keep them in an environment that felt safe, happy and comfortable — their own home!
Whether your pets need a walk, hiking adventure, feeding, litter box cleaning or potty break, I will provide the most dependable, reasonable and exceptional pet services if you’re busy at home or away. I will make sure your pet is loved and happy when you can’t be there!

Going the extra mile to keep your pets active, safe and happy!
Agility games, adventure hikes, swimming, walking and playtime are all part of the NewLife plan to keep your pet happy and healthy — all while you are taking care of YOUR life!
Whether you just need an hour visit for me to feed and play with your pet, or you have a half day or more, I would love to plan an adventure. Whether it’s a hike, swim, long walk, run or just a nice, leisurely walk in nature — your pet deserves love and attention while you are away! Frisbee, playing catch, and agility games set up in your back yard with tunnels, jumps and hoops are also options. Whatever the weather, we will go outside and expend some energy!

What are people saying about Jen?
Jen started walking our dog when we first rescued him. He has always been nervous with new people, but he loved Jen since the first time he met her and has never hesitated when she comes for him. He actually gets so excited when she comes for him. Dogs are such good judges of character! She loves every dog that she takes care of. I never worry when he’s with Jen.

We cannot say enough good things about Jen! She took care of our almost 9-year-old Golden Retriever, Cooper, while we went away. We received daily update texts, pictures and videos which made our day!
Jen went above and beyond and beyond and we couldn’t have been more thankful for a trustworthy and reliable person to help care for our Cooper! Highly, highly recommend!

Thankfully I was recommended to Jen by a best friend... and meeting her was the best thing that ever happened to us! I have 2 cats, one who requires meds for seizures and insulin for diabetes, both very time-sensitive. We literally never go away (or had gone away) because of this, nor did I ever feel comfortable doing so... Jen made me feel SO comfortable, checked in and sent pictures while away and always let me know what was going on. Thank you, Jen - we love you!
