This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad we chose Jenna. Returning home after two weeks, the cats were happy, they still had plenty of food and water, litter boxes were clean and so was the kitchen. Jenna was a great communicator and after hearing from her on the first day of care I knew the cats would be fine. She even trimmed Binxy’s nails! I’ve already requested another booking!

About: I’ve owned and fostered dogs of all shapes and sizes for over 13 years. I’ve owned Great Danes, Huskies, Malamutes, Anatolian shepherds, Cane Corsos, and even wolf hybrids. I’m comfortable with all sizes and know how to adequately handle them. I am happiest when with dogs and look forward to meeting your furry family member! I work a job where I pick my own schedule. I will work around whatever my clients needs are to ensure their pet is cared for to your standard. I love to walk and am willing to take your furry loved one on as long of a walk as you like. I also practice safe feeding environments and am aware if feedings need to be done a certain way. I am also versed in practices of being safe while on the leash and at dog parks. I have a truck that I can use to take your dog to the dog park as well if you’d like.

About: I have hands on, everyday experience caring for four Golden Retrievers of my own. Managing a multi dog household has given me skills in canine schedule structure, supervision, and understanding of different personalities and energy levels. I also have experience caring for infant puppies, including feeding schedules, potty training foundations, crate introduction, and the patience that can sometimes be needed during those important early development stages. I’m comfortable maintaining routines, reinforcing basic training, and providing both high-energy play and calm, attentive care. Your pet will be treated like part of my family: safe, loved, and well cared for! I work remotely full time, so I am very flexible and am able to meet you and your schedule requests, whether it be for in-home visits, walk outing, or overnight stays. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise routines, and any specific instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also reinforcing any training or household rules you have in place. I’m respectful of your home, keep everything clean and organized, and always send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

I've used Michaela for years now and and not only do I trust her with my 4 cats, but my house as well. This last trip took 10 days and not only did she come in and feed, water, clean litter boxes, but also brought them new toys and treats, and made sure my house was presentable for prospective buyers.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. All different breeds and all different sizes. I’ve always known the importance of keeping a good eye on them and knowing their regular attitude. I know how serious something can be even when the dogs attitude just switched a little bit. I know the importance of showing your love and care for animals as it can really help comfort them or just make them happy. I currently work part time so I do have a lot of freetime to help out and look after/ care for peoples animals who need it. I’m available anyday especially weekends to watch/walk ur pets!! In my home my dog has an open field to run in a water bowl outside inside and in my room. He also gets kenneled sometimes depending on how long im leaving for and such but at night he sleeps in bed with me or on the floor if he gets too hot.

I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!

About: Hello there! I'm Hailey, and dogs hold a special place in my heart. Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to have dogs as constant companions, and now I'm eager to utilize my expertise in handling them. With a calm and laid-back demeanor, I prioritize building trust with your furry friends, hoping to win their affection along the way. Working from home grants me the flexibility to be there for your pups and other animals whenever they need me. Equipped with experience from puppy training classes, I'm confident in my ability to handle even the most energetic puppies. Additionally, I am trained in dog CPR, ensuring the safety of your beloved pets. As a former collegiate softball player, I maintain excellent physical fitness, enabling me to keep up with your dogs throughout the day effortlessly. If you have any further inquiries, please don't hesitate to contact me. As someone who works from home, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. With the flexibility of my schedule, I have the privilege of being available for your pets throughout the day. This means I can provide them with the attention, care, and companionship they need. Whether it's feeding, exercise, playtime, or administering any necessary medications, I can be there to tend to their needs promptly. Additionally, I understand the importance of maintaining a consistent routine for pets, so I ensure that their feeding and exercise schedules align with their usual habits. Rest assured, your furry companions will receive dedicated care and supervision, as I am always present and ready to meet their needs. The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.
