I’m a full-time gig worker and taking care of animals is one of my favorite things to do! There is nothing I love more than a night in with plenty of playtime and snuggles. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you are looking for last-minute care, too- I will do my absolute best to make things work!

I unfortunately cannot board dogs at this time, as I live in an apartment complex that has a pet fee. Hoping to change this soon!

Information Gwendolyn J. would like to know about your pet

I am extremely communicative and really value whenever my clients are able to do that in return! Please let me know about walk-frequency, feeding times, and any additional details you deem important. I am extremely detail-oriented and will follow whatever instructions you lay out for me.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on leisurely morning and evening strolls as we explore the neighborhood together. I also enjoy games- fetch, tug, and, of course, having them do tricks for treats!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Gwendolyn. I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with an extremely active border collie . I first began walking neighbor’s dogs while I was in middle school and have been petsitting ever since. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet and I will do everything I can to ease your mind while you are away. I am extremely communicative and can send as many photos and videos as you like! Some of my favorite past clients have been a retired racing greyhound, a Rhodesian ridgeback, and a 19 year old schnauzer who lived on a diet of Erewhon Korean BBQ. I am comfortable caring for senior animals and administering medication. Can’t wait to meet you and your fur kids soon!

Gwendolyn is a good friend of mine and she is one of the most responsible people I know, specifically when it comes to pets. She has watched my dogs multiple times and anytime she's with them they are always the happiest boys in the world and get so excited when she comes back. You couldn't find a better pet sitter if you tried.

Gwen has taken care of our dog for over 5 years. She is caring and passionate and doesn’t hate to ask questions if our dog does something unusual. I love that she always sends updates and pictures to keep us informed.

Gwen completely put our minds at ease! When she met our 4 dogs they immediately liked her (which is rare). 3 are elderly/high maintenance and Gwen handled their quirks with ease. She has such present and calm energy and did such a wonderful job with them while we were gone. We will definitely be hiring her again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
