Your dogs new best friend
Pet care experience
Updated March 2024- please read before messaging :) I hate to say but at this time my services are on hold for overnight sitting in your home or mine. My own fur baby Crouton requires my attention during her potentially last year with me. Until then I will only be able to assist you with drop in visits or walks! Thank you for your understanding Rover community:) I have done Rover in Virginia, California, and now Florida! I love being able to help everyone out with their fur babies while they are away! My schedule for my full time job is roughly 11am/12pm to 8pm five days a week- different days off every week that I get to choose. It is best to request me two weeks out to give me time to clear some days for your requests! Unfortunately I may not be able to accept dogs that are elder/need more attention as I can't promise certain time periods for medications to be administered. I am always filled with joy seeing how loving animals can be. I know first-hand all about the unconditional love that dogs and kitties bring to life, so I became a sitter to help provide some of that love back to them! I spent my youth at humane society, local pounds, and the ASPCA as a volunteer. It was a great experience and really developed a true compassion for pups that I carry with me to this day. I grew up with dogs and cats my entire life, and had small breeds, large breeds, and everything in between. I adopted my own dog at age 20, she is an 14 year old Lab mix now. In addition to my pup, I also have my main coon of 16 years, all animals will be loved by me! My animals do not travel with me to my sittings so there is no need to worry about the additional fur around the house. I’m a very responsible person and pet owner, so you can be confident that your best friend will be in good hands. I was never into partying or drinking, and have always been a workhorse that just wanted more responsibility. I’ll always make sure to be in touch with owners on a daily basis through text and picture messages to let them know how their pup and kitty is getting along and what we’ve done for the day. I’ll always make sure to honor all of your wishes on how to treat your dog as well, and am happy to go the extra mile if need be. I unfortunately don't take dogs in my own home as i have a small apartment that I share with my boyfriend and large dog. For house sittings, just leave me a list of what plants need to be watered and when the garbage goes out :) also be aware, I will not allow visitors to your home while I am caring for your fur babies.
Reviews
Jennifer took great care of Laika while we were away. She was very easy to communicate with, and sent the cutest photos! Will be using her services again.
We keep asking Alfie what is wrong and he replies "when is Jennifer coming back?". And then we ask him, do you still love us? And he replies "when is Jennifer coming back?". Jennifer is a delight and charmed Alfie into adoration in 30 seconds flat. Jennifer sent us adorable photos of them playing and cuddling together. She's very considerate and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend her or to book her again. Thank you Jennifer!
Finding someone to care for our furry children while we were away for a week was not something I thought was going to be easy, and left me worried... Spare yourself the concerns, just use Jennifer, she's dependable, prompt, communicates well, and you can tell she really cares. We highly recommend her.
Jennifer was great! Reliable and went above and beyond caring for my baby.

I’m big on dogs always having a leash especially in new areas, will always be by my side. I lift weights 5 days a week- I’m definitely capable of holding bigger dogs back if needed on walks.
Information Jennifer M. would like to know about your pet
Some things I like to learn ahead of time - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
A typical day
I love to get out and hike. There’s just nothing better than having a canine co-pilot alongside you while you’re on a good run! If your pup is up for it, we’ll spend plenty of time exploring the local trails and parks. I love to be outside and in the sun, and it’s a great way for me to stay active too. I always make sure to schedule a few walks in every day, so we’ll get exercise no matter what. I’m also happy to go on double cuddle duty and hang out together on the couch reading or catching up on Netflix!

Availability
I currently work full time and am able to help with morning and nights- I pick my days off for each week so if you reach out with enough time I can also assist with drop in visits and walks mid day. As of now this is my only options due to my own senior dog needing my attention, I can’t do overnights at this moment.
