Dog Lover for Life! Peaceful Space
Pet care experience
Hi, my name is Jean, and if you’re looking for a nurturing pet sitter, you’ve come to the right place. I’m a freelance artist with a flexible schedule with plenty of experience dog sitting, both professionally and for friends and family. I love dogs of all shapes, breeds, and sizes, and have experience with rescue dogs as well. I’m a true-blue animal lover -- all are unique and fun! I’ve hung out with fish, lizards, cats, rabbits, and even chickens. While your dog stays with me, we’ll work on some new tricks, refine old ones and spend lots of time at the park saying hi to neighbors. If your stay is long enough, a pet portrait will probably happen during some free art time. I live nearby a park, and we can take long walks on my favorite trail. I’m all about positive reinforcement with warm words and belly rubs. Let me know your dog’s quirks and personality traits, and I’d be happy to accommodate. In my freetime, I love to paint, dance, and train capoeira. As an active person, rest assured your dog will get the exercise he or she needs with me. The fall season is one of my favorites -- I love the change of colors, the brisk weather and the cool evenings, and to warm up with some soup and thick wool socks indoors. If your dog is more of an indoor cuddler, we can hang out inside. Your dog isn’t my only client, however -- you are too! Let me know what you need to be comfortable, and I’ll be sure to communicate clearly and efficiently with plenty of updates while you’re away. Being a sitter on Rover means I will have the pleasure of having a dog in my home and all the heartfelt joy that comes with it. Send me a message so we can set up a Meet and Greet!

Jean was great! She took great care of our pups Stanley and Nell for the day in her home. If they had thumbs they would give her two thumbs up! Will call on her again.
Jean has looked after Andrew twice now, and she's great. I trust her wholeheartedly with my dog, who happens to be a senior and has special needs. She takes excellent care of him, and always goes above and beyond, with making sure he has a great experience and is well cared for. Thank you for taking such good care of Andrew!
Jean is awesome! I was able to book with her the night before going out of town for the weekend after my other sitter had to cancel at the last minute. Even gave me a few suggestions of places to see on my trip! She kept me updated the entire time with lots of photos and video - I have to admit I did get a little jealous of all the fun they were having lol. She took excellent care of my dog, I will definitely be going to Jean first for all of my future dog sitting needs! Thanks Jean!
Jean has taken care of my dog Cookies (yes Cookies, not Cookie) a few time for me while I was away on vacation. Cookies is old, stubborn and needs a little more love and attention. Jean was really good at keeping up with her needs and communicating any issues that came up while I was away. She was creative at finding solutions to Cookies' stubborn habits that even I couldn't figure out. I am so grateful for Jeans responsible nature. She is my number one go to person if Cookies ever needs a dog sitter.

Information Jean C. would like to know about your pet
Every dog is unique. So tell me what makes yours special! I want to know their likes and dislikes, how they get along with other dogs, their vaccination history, and how they do during walks. I’m willing to work with a range of dogs, and am happy to continue any training you’ve started. What is your dog’s routine like? The more I know about this, the more comfortable I can make them during their time with me.
A typical day
I love close by a park, so we can take long walks through there. I have a favorite trail because it’s beautiful and serene, which is perfect for sniffs and exploration! If your dog likes to hang out indoors, I may ask them to be a model while I paint their portrait -- with your permission, of course!
