Seeking Furry Friends
Pet care experience
To me, animals have always been family. I respect them as I do people. I love to learn, and am not afraid to look things up or ask questions. I am particularly good with cats of any age.
Cat care experience
Jeanine also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Jeanine is wonderful, she did a wonderful job helping take care of my mom's older dogs who are on special diets and meds, she did wonderful with feeding at a timely manner and meds at the correct time and getting them out for walks.
Jeanine is very gentle & caring with both animals & children. She notices quickly, if they need anything. Jeanine is able to be present with them & make them feel comfortable. She is also capable of providing a firm hand & gentle discipline, if needed. I am happy to recommend Jeanine to you to walk or care for your pet.
I've known Jeanine for a couple of years. She has taken care of my two Pom boys several times. She always gives them lots of attention. She walks them, feeds them, gives them their meds. And has even cleaned up poopy butts! I am sure she will take loving care of your babies too.
Jeanine is knowledgeable and caring. She was amazing with my new kitten and gave me incredible tips and tricks that have helped me as a new cat mom.

Safety, trust & environment
Pet-sitting for me is akin to babysitting. One must be adaptable, willing to learn, and to always take care of their charge. Put simply: I do what is needed and asked. A clients home is their sanctuary- I am being trusted with their home and their heart taking care of their animals. It is most important to take care of the animals....but the house is a part of that too. I think every pet parent has had to clean up "accidents" from either end or over-eager playtime. I don't shy from this. It is part of the deal made when taking an animal to live with you, or sit
Information Jeanine B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your animal has any special needs or behavioral quirks I can account for. Furry friends are just like people- each unique and different, so I am as adaptable as possible.
A typical day
I enjoy going on walks with dogs. I like letting them check out the new smells around your neighborhood, get some sunshine and fresh air, and get some exercise. Playing is also a blast. Then there is cuddle time. When an animal really trusts you, they allow you close to pet them, relax them, and often sleep near you. I cannot describe the fulfillment I get from that. So far as kitty's, they require care in a different order. As always every animal is unique: some want cuddles and pets, others play time, others are comfortable in the knowledge that you are simply near. It is important to take that into account in caring for an animal

I’m making many positive changes in my life. I’m looking to continue increasing physical fitness, get out more, and have fun. To help with this I am looking to make some furry friends! I'd like to walk some puppers (all dogs are puppers) and get out in the fresh air. Fall is coming, my favorite time of year- what could be better than exploring with a trusted companion?!? My schedule is quite flexible as I am currently a stay-at-home kitty mama.
