Pet care experience

Fun, caring & knowledgeable

I have over 35 yrs exp with animals. for 16 of those years I was a certified Vet tech and for 8 a certified dog trainer. My love for animals in general runs deep. I know how hard it can be to find affordable, dependable, loving care for your dog/s while away so I wanted to provide such a place in our home. Your dog will be treated like one of our own. We have 2 dogs of our own. Howard is a 9 yr old lab hound mix with loads of energy and an 15yr old pug who loves to snuggle and follow her people around. I am ok administering medications and or injections, caring for sick and older pets or pets with special needs. Medications or special needs pets are subject to an additional charge ($5-$10/day) We can discuss at booking!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I follow the instructions of my clients and ensure their pets are kept happy, safe, and comfortable. I have a fenced yard and a fun loving pup to play with. All feedings and treats are given separately to avoid food aggression/guarding issues. Dogs are not allowed out with each other if I can not monitor them to keep everyone safe.

Jen was great! She took great care of our pups while we were away on vacation. She also has the patience of a saint because my puppy was giving her a run for her money and she still loved on him , cleaned up his messes and cared for him in a way a family member would.

Jen has been an incredible support walking my senior beagle Amos!! This was our second time working with Jen and her communication and professionalism has been top notch from start to finish. I really appreciate her prompt responses and especially her kindness and special care with my senior pup. Thank you, Jen!!

My old pup was in great hands with Jen over the weekend! She gave him his nightly medicine and treated him with tons of love and care and patience.

Schedule

I am pretty flexible with let-outs and walks at the clients home. Dogs are typically let outside 3-4 times daily, depending on the pup, my scd. and the weather. They can hang out outside as long as they like or as little as they like.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Jen can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
I will not enter the home of an aggressive dog without a prior meet to evaluate. Medication administration will require an added small fee (5$), unless it's very simple. No breed preferences. Must be ok with kids and other dogs. Unneutered males are ok, but if there is marking inside there will be an extra cleaning fee of $25.00 per day. Kennels will be used if there are house soiling issues, destructive behavior, inter-dog problems, at night and whenever it is feeding time to keep all dogs safe.
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.
