I make sure to follow the owners careful instructions that are left for me and will reach out with any and all questions. I am not shy with communication!

Information Jeanette V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog is potty trained or not. I would like to know how long you expect drop in visits to be (I usually stay for about 30 minutes).

A typical day

I live near to Iowa State's campus and love running and taking walks around there myself so I have some spots and locations that would be fitting for dog walking. I love playing fetch with dogs - I think it's a great way for them to burn off some energy and keep them healthy. I enjoy lounging around with cats and making sure they get all of their energy out too so that they are ready for a restful night.

Pet care experience

I have had many different pets of my own during my lifetime; all of different shapes, sizes and breeds! I have had close family and friends who call me for any dog sitting or care taking services. I am a teacher with a lot of availability during the summer so I can most likely cover any hours you need. I truly love animals and I will treat your pets like my own 🥰

Jeanette did a great job taking care of our dogs. She is very kind and outgoing. She did a nice job of leaving messages after each visit. I would definitely use her again :)

Jeanette did a fantastic job taking care of our old girl! She was very communicative, open to last minute adjustments, and kept us apprised on how our pup was doing! Highly recommend and will absolutely book with her again.

Jeanette was amazing! There are very few people I will leave my baby boy with. She did amazing. She was willing to come and meet him and he is high strung but she was still willing to deal with his size and personality. We will be requesting her if we need 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.
