About: I've had all different types of animals my whole life from pigs, birds, and reptiles to dogs, cats, and fish. I have 5 years of vet technician experience and will insure your four pawed family members will be safe, healthy and loved in my care. I have an open schedule; morning or night and have no problem with being flexible to anytime or day you may need your four legged loved ones! I have free range chickens and turkeys and three lovable fur balls who always have a massive yard to play in and explore. I have a snake who also enjoys lounging around outside while everyone's playing and exploring! Everyone gets food and clean water every couple hours. (Treats included of course!)


“Jennifer was absolutely fantastic with my Tucker & Zoey. She came to my home and met them before her scheduled walk days, which was so comforting. She is a very sweet person, was on time, sent several pictures of them during their walk, and very great with communication! This was my first time using someone to walk my babies while I was away for several hours, but I WILL DEFINITELY be using Jennifer again. 😊😊😊”
