Safety, trust & environment

I’m happy to come to your house for overnights or drop ins. I’ll gladly follow any instructions or routines you have, as I know that animals can be particular.

Information Jacqueline S. would like to know about your pet

I love detailed instructions that I can refer back to, so go crazy on giving me details! Tell me those weird things your pet loves and hates.

A typical day

With dogs, I love spending time walking and being outside. I’m happy to be their companion for covering miles, or for a low key sniff-ari. For cats, well, it’s up to them how we spend our time, but I’m good at giving shy cats their space to get comfortable. I’ve fostered every type of cat under the sun, so happy to move at their pace and with their vibe.

Cats and dogs bring me joy

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs and fostered cats (with 1 foster fail) for at least 10 years. I love walking (so your dog and I already share a hobby), and I personally know how difficult it can be to find a trusted pet sitter. I’m very good at following instructions, and I’ll treat your animal like they’re my own.

We’ve used Jacqueline before, and I absolutely love how much she cares for my cat! I really appreciate that she’s knowledgeable about different cat personalities and meets them where they are at. Jacqueline stayed with my cat over the 4th of July and did a great job keeping my little guy comfortable and calm during a loud and hot time period. I appreciate Jacqueline’s communication and adherence to instructions. We will definitely use Jacqueline 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.
