Pet care experience

Lover of ALL dogs & cats!

I have had animals all my life! I am responsible, attentive, active, and nurturing. I have experience caring for animals of all age ranges, from puppies & kittens to senior cats & dogs. I’m comfortable with drops-ins, full-day care, overnights, or longer stays. I make sure to personalize my care to meet the needs of your animal. If you want someone who will love on your pet(s) as much as you do, I’m your girl!

Safety, trust & environment

I am currently living in a shared apartment building with a dog. All pet care would need to be in my client’s home. You can trust that while you are away, your pet will be happy and safe. I follow care instructions throughly and make sure that you get plenty of check-ins & photo updates! You can be assured that your space will be respected and remain clean & tidy.

Jen was wonderful! This was my first time having her stay with my pets, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. She was communicative, reliable, and did a great job following all of the instructions for my dog, who can be particular with new people and needs his space. I really appreciated how respectful she was of his boundaries and routine, and everything went smoothly while I was away. I came home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house. I would absolutely book Jen again and highly recommend her!

Jen was amazing and took great care of Harlow and our home! She always sent us picture updates and kept us in the loop and Harlow had the best weekend! Could not recommend her more!

I needed last minute help and Jen was quick to respond. She modified the visit to match my need which was 6 hours of supervision of my dog bc he has surgical staples. She spotted him on the stairs and kept him company while anticipating his needs as he can get a little anxious. She was able to calm him with a walk and snack. I appreciate the last minute help and attentive sitting. She’s good at updates as well, will be requesting more help in the future. Thank you!

Jen was great from start to finish. Despite the fact that she lives an hour from us, she came after work for an in person meet and greet. You could tell right away how good she is with animals and our dogs took to her immediately. During her stay she kept us up to date on how they were doing each day with texts and pictures. We are so pleased and would definitely use her again!

We couldn’t be more thankful for Jen! She cared for our four dogs last weekend and did a truly wonderful job. From the very start, she was warm, detail-oriented, and an excellent communicator. She asked thoughtful questions at our meet-and-greet, kept us updated with photos, and made sure we always felt connected to our pups. Our dogs loved her—especially our rescue, who can sometimes be shy with new people. Jen made her feel comfortable right away, which meant so much to us. On top of that, she left our house just as she found it, which shows the care and respect she brings to her work. We will absolutely be booking with Jen again. Highly recommend her if you want peace of mind and happy pups. Thanks so much, Jen! 🐾

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or diet that I can account for. I feel comfortable administering medications that are needed. I would also love to know how your dog is on a leash, as well as around other animals and children that we may encounter on a walk.
