Pet care experience
Mother of 3 littles (bichon, maltipoo, shihpoo ) and 2 male cats. Late owner of Irish wolfhound (she was my 3rd and passed last year at 10yrs old) and many other breeds large and small. I have a degree in Animal science, am a Licensed wildlife rehabber and a state licensed Humane Investigator. I have experience with domestic and exotics pets from small mammals to lizards to salt water tanks. Located on a horse farm and I professionally boarded horses for over 28 yrs. I am also a certified pharmacy tech, and am certified in Animal (pet and horse) First aid and CPR. I am currently an employee of Sturgis Veterinary Hospital. For in home boarding, we have a large fenced in yard and my littles are friendly to visiting dogs. When I care in your home, I provide your pet the care and LOVE they need to be comfortable while you’re gone.
Reviews
Jen was an incredible caregiver for my senior pup, Cody. She was always so welcoming, supportive and Cody loved spending time with Jen and her pack. She was always very flexible with scheduling and offered very fair pricing for her services. I have missed her greatly since she moved to SD and remember the many happy times that Cody had with her. She would be a wonderful caregiver for your beloved pets! <3
I have known Jen for several years and, most notably, is her exemplary care of all animals. She is conciensious, kind and playful. I would not hesitate to have Jen dog sit for my guy.
In the 5 years I have known Jen, I have seen firsthand what a responsible, reliable, knowledgeable and dedicated animal lover and caretaker she is. She has her own personal menagerie of dogs, cats and horses, all of whom receive the best of care. She is also trained in and actively involved in wildlife rehabilitation and horse rescue and rehabilitation. I have personally observed her doing whatever it takes to make make sure the lives of the animals under her care are well taken care of and loved. Any company with a focus on animals, would be very lucky to have her as part of their organization.
