Licensed insured pet professional

Pet care experience

I've always had cats, including a feral mom cat with a litter of kittens. Furry playtime with laser pointers or feather fishing rods are wonderful ways to keep them active. My dog nurturing experience began at birth since we always had multiple dogs. One rescue was a terrier mix who had a horrendous first life, she was crated as long as 23 hours a day. Once she was in my home, she blossomed into one of the warmest and most loving animals. She became diabetic as she aged and I nurtured her for years with insulin injections twice a day. My current dog is an elder rescue, Many small animals have been part of the menagerie as well, rabbits, lizards, mice, and fresh water fish have all been part of the family. I've made pet care my vocation post pandemic. I'm fully vaccinated (x4) and wear a mask unless I'm alone. I am available for drop-ins or walks from 8am-6pm. I am fully insured and bonded, and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I make sure your animals are safe and sound when you get home, using my training in Pet First Aid, if needed. When we first begin to work together, I will ask to set up a meet and greet to learn your pets routine and preferences. I keep in touch with texts for any concerns or questions and to let you have a peek into your animal's time with me by photographs.

My dog warmed up to Jean right away! She is very professional and friendly. She always shares photos and start/end times of walks. She has also been thoughtful about things like drying him off if it was raining and filling his water dish.

We loved everything about Jean and her care of our dog Maisy. She was very responsive in setting up the booking. Her warmth and kindness immediately put us at ease and she was so gentle with Maisy. It’s obvious that she loves animals! Jean is a good communicator and super responsible. We highly recommend her as a pet sitter!

This was the first time I used this service. I was pleased by how things went. I will use Jean again.

Safety, trust & environment

Whenever I'm with a animal, I treat them as my own, always with awareness of others in the area. The only time I will let an animal be off leash is in a fully fenced private yard.

Information Jean R. would like to know about your pet

Need the basics, is the dog a rescue? Any dietary special needs? Any medications that need to occur? I had a diabetic dog so I understand about injections and fluid administration.

A typical day

I follow your lead for activities, including where to walk and favorite toys or cuddles. Keeping your cat or dog happy and healthy is my priority. I treat them as if they were my own and will let you know of any new behaviors or needs.
