Pet care experience

Dog owner and pet lover

I’ve taken care of two of my own dogs for around 10 years, and I grew up with 3 cats. You can rely on me to watch your pets if you are going out of town or require a drop in visit. Both of my dogs are rescues, so I’m aware that every dog has a story. I am understanding and suitable to help!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

*I prefer meeting your pet first* I will follow all instructions provided to me from the pet's owners. I’ve learned that when it comes to entering a pet's space, whether for babysitting or simply a walk pick-up, it is important to form a relationship with the pet. You must allow the pet to become familiar with you, and make sure they trust you. Once you have a positive relationship, your pet will be calmer and happier. One of my rescue dogs has anxiety around strangers. Likewise, my cats used to hide when strangers entered their house. Therefore, I am a very understanding pet-sitter/walker.

Gwendolyn took amazing care of our dog and two cats while we were away. She was very communicative and provided them lots of engagement which means a lot to us. I would definitely recommend Gwendolyn for anyone looking for a sitter for their pup or cats!

Gwendolyn Jones is my sister. I have watched her take care of her two dogs for many years. She raised them very well. They can do tricks, and they love getting treats. She treats them very well, almost like humans. Her dog, Redd, even sleeps on her bed. And her dog, Cleo, loves wearing sweaters. She can be a great pet sitter.

Out of all of my friends, Gwendolyn Jones is the first person who comes to mind every time I need someone to drop-in on my hamster when I am out of town. She comes by to feed him, and she always sends me updated photos. She is GREAT with her own dogs. I would highly recommend her for this service.

To Whom It May Concern,   Gwendolyn Jones has been an exemplary pet sitter for my dog, Roxxy. She asks for a fair wage, and Roxxy is very comfortable with her. She takes Roxxy on walks, and Gwen has cleaned up messes that my dog made while I was away. For two weeks, Roxxy had an ear infection, and Gwendolyn would administer ear drops. I would recommend her services.   Thank you, Deborah Messineo

Please make me aware of any special needs your dogs have. I am a very understanding pet sitter and I want to do what is best for the dogs. I have medium sized dogs myself, but I also have experience with small and large dogs. I used to have three cats, so I am more than knowledgeable about them!
