And they called it Puppy Love

Pet care experience

I don't care how old your baby is they are a puppy to me. I have looked after several friend's pets (cats and dogs) both in my home and at their residence. I am an Executive Assistant so being organized, having a schedule, and handling multiple projects at the same time is a way of life for me I am a fur-mommy to a fun-loving lab named Sadie Belle. She's 11 years old and loves to play and cuddle. I look forward to giving and getting the love from your pet that only a beloved 4-legged family member can give. Why I love dog sitting My parents got our first family dog in 1987. We had her for 18 years. She wasn't just the dog, she was part of the family. I've never met a dog I didn't like and have yet to find a dog who doesn't make friends with me. I had my fur-baby Riley for 15 years. He picked me to take care of him and I think I did a good job. I now am the proud mommy to Sadie Belle. She's a 11 year old Lab and full of love and energy. My experience administering medication I think this depends on the temperament of the dog when getting medicine in general. If they don't like it when their owner gives it to them, they aren't gonna like me doing it either. Do you have any tricks you use? masking it in peanut butter, smashing it in wet food.

Jennifer was great. She arrived at just the time we agreed, and she even asked if we needed any more time on the day we were due back. She sent photos and videos every day, and seemed to love spending time with the dogs. Everything went smoothly.

Jennifer was fabulous!! She is super responsible and on the ball! She arrived exactly on time and took great care of Louie. The house was in perfect condition when I arrived home and she even washed the sheets and towels. I highly recommend and will definitely reach out to her for future booking requests - thanks Jennifer!

Once again, Jennifer took great care of our fur babies and left our house immaculate after staying with them. Thanks, Jennifer!

I was really looking forward to having Jennifer do in home house-sitting with my dog while I traveled out of the country after a great meet-and-greet, reading positive reviews, and seeing she was a Rover star sitter. Unfortunately, despite her being at my home the entire time of care, I quickly noticed through my ring camera that my dog wasn’t let out during the agreed-upon very flexible potty breaks. I let this slide in the beginning because I thought maybe she was adjusting to the schedule and my dog is generally flexible in his bathroom breaks. However, the final straw occurred when I noticed my dog went nearly 20 hours without being let out in then back yard. While I did not directly express this concern to Jennifer at the time, I felt that I could no longer trust her with his care after going that long without being let outside, and I decided to relieve her of her duties while I was abroad. I personally felt that this was completely inexcusable when Jennifer was at my home this entire time. It created a lot of anxiety and stress for me while I was away that I would not want anyone else to experience with their fur babies. Additionally, I only received one update from Jennifer over those 4 days, and while I didn’t clearly state how often I would have liked to receive updates beforehand, I anticipated after our initial meeting that Jennifer was someone who would go out of her way to give me peace of mind. I hate writing this review, but I feel it’s important to share this experience, as it would have been something I’d want to know when choosing a sitter for my dog. This may have been a one-off situation, but I wanted to provide my honest feedback.
