About JM Pet Resort

Jeni Mather is the owner and President of JM Pet Resort and JM Pet Vet Clinic. JM Pet Resort is a dream come true for Jeni; turning her lifelong passion for animal welfare and helping people into a thriving pet-care business. Jeni now employs over 50 staff members to support a variety of essential pet-care services. Her humble beginnings all began while attending college at Stonehill College. She trained dogs for extra money while working multiple customer service jobs. Graduating with a BS, she knew that she wanted to pursue a career in animal welfare and community outreach; and so it began. Jeni kick-started her career in 1996 by working two, and sometimes three jobs. She was a veterinary technician by day and a motivational dog trainer by night; specializing in socialization and aggression rehabilitation. In the years following, she would go on to work at a multitude of animal hospitals and grow her interest in animal welfare and the human-animal bond. Her intuitive dog training abilities and uncanny success stories quickly garnered her reputation as “the dog lady”. Her moonlighting experience was so positive it inspired her to make dog training her full-time career. In 1998, she opened JM K-9 Training which offered doggie daycare 6 AM-9 PM 7 days a week; the first of its kind on the South Shore. Jeni’s compassionate dedication to the care and well-being of animals and a very special dog named Blue inspired her to open the Brockton Blue Dog Shelter in 1999. Jeni recognized the need for a South Shore-based facility to support homeless dogs with health issues, obedience problems, or even a safe place for a family to relinquish a pet if necessary. Her unique rescue program resulted in the successful rehabilitation and placement of over 1,700 dogs! Over the next 13 years, the business thrived; expanding to offer many more amenities than just daycare. In 2011, Jeni moved her business to a brand new location and renamed the company JM Pet Resort, harnessing all of the impressive services in an 11,000 sq.ft. building. In 2016, there was one piece of animal care that Jeni wanted to offer her clients and people in the community: affordable veterinary care. Spending those years working as a vet technician, and as the Founder/Director of The Brockton Blue Dog Shelter, Jeni witnessed the struggle many people shared when it came time to pay for medical expenses. In 2016 Jeni fulfilled this wish by opening JM Pet Vet Clinic, a high-quality veterinary clinic stationed at the Resort. She intends to not only help the community with affordable veterinary care but to also help area shelters and animal control facilities who have strained budgets. Along with being the President of JM Pet Resort, Jeni is a Veterinary Technician and a Level 2 Certified Dog Trainer through the Animal Behavior College. She is also an Animal Behavior College Mentor and a Certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator. Jeni resides in Easton with her loving husband George, her three beautiful children, and a few beloved pets, including Blueberry, Cora, King, Sakari, all adopted from the Brockton Blue Dog Shelter, and the newest member Nikki who was a Christmas surprise!

Sandra’s journey to JM Pet Resort was initiated by her Pug, Kramer! When she brought Kramer home as a playmate for her Shar-Pei, it was not the joyful union she was hoping for. In search of professional dog training services, Sandra found Jeni Mather. The dog’s relationship was transformed and so was Sandra’s career. She soon found herself apprenticing under Jeni to become a trainer herself. While volunteering at Blue Dog doing temperament testing and finalizing adoptions, Sandra decided to leave her retail management career behind and join Jeni full time. Sandra’s Pug Kramer is now twelve and co-habitating with Harry and Crosby, two Shar-Pei mixes and three cats, all in perfect harmony.
