Happy Furiends

What your pup gets on a stay stay with them: ~ At least 2 walks a day. (unless otherwise directed) ~ Affection galore (one of the most important parts, and they will still be happy to go home to you. :) ~ Feeding schedule and types of food stuck to (a change in food is one of the things that can make pups most nervous). ~ A peaceful time and place to sleep. ~ And, play! (if so desired) ~ and pictures and videos for you, depending on whether the pups keep doing what they are doing while I break out my phone. HaHa! My dear Poco has crossed the rainbow 🌈 bridge: April 29, 2024. She lived a very long a full life and I continue this work knowing she is still my “assistant”. I do sometimes have more than one sit at a time, so please specify if your pal(s) are amicable to making new furiends.

Safety, trust & environment

Making sure people's fur-children are safe is my number one priority. I take safety measures such as always checking leashes and harnesses are secure and tight enough so they won't slip out. I wrap the leash around my wrist in a way that will keep them secure even if they get startled. I check areas to make sure there are no tempting things to eat on walks or in any areas. I listen to pet "owners" regarding what they know about their "kids" and make sure to follow instructions.

Once again Jean took amazing care of my fur baby. Winston is so comfortable with her and that tells me that she cares for him well. And she is very respectful of my home. She is a gem!!

We rebooked Jean for a quick weekend trip and she was wonderful again! I did not have the time to prep the house quite as much before this trip and but she did not seem to mind. Our pup can get some anxiety when we are gone but Jean is so loving and attentive with him we know he’s in good hands.

Jean was great! The dogs took to her immediately and we were afraid they might leave us and find their way to her house! Seriously though, Jean was a pleasant soul and took care of the dogs and the house to perfection. I highly recommend her, except on the days we need her services again!

My dog is very shy, but Jean was able to help him feel comfortable. She was great with my cat and my dog, and shared pictures throughout the days so I could see that they were well taken care of.

Jean was very communicative and sent great videos and photos of Kono. She also asks great questions to really understand Kono’s temperament, needs, likes and dislikes. So happy I booked with Jean.

Jean does a wonderful job caring for my fur baby. Based on the pictures and videos she sends, he is clearly comfortable with her and they have bonded. We are lucky to have found her.

My life is currently in transition. I am currently around quite often for your furpets' needs. I can also care for birds and small fuzzy creatures (hamsters, etc.)

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Jean can host up to 1 pet per night
- what startles them? - how do they like to be petted? - when do they like their walks and where do they like to go (that they are allowed to go)? - what can make them act out? - what verbal cues help keep them feel cared for and secure? - anything else you feel pertinent to a fun and easy sit?
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.
