Treating your pet like my own fam<3
Pet care experience
Hey there, my name is Jenna! I began dog walking and pet sitting October of '21 to have a more flexible schedule while I homeschool my two children. I am passionate about caring for people and their pets, so it's been a dream job for me. I have always had cats my whole life and actually helped deliver a litter once. I am a huge fan of Jackson Galaxy and could watch his educational content endlessly. I also am starting a collection of Paul Owens, Turid Rugaas and Linda Michael books to help me manage any dog positively. With that being said, I am always open to learning new positive reinforcement training for both cats and dogs. I believe clear communication, training and exercise are all key to an incredible bond with your animals. I have a compassionate and bubbly personality. I have gained the trust of many anxious dogs and cats with time. I love to play and I love to talk to my animal friends. <3

About Jenna B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am always monitoring your pet's behavior and environment for safety. I love keeping a tidy and comfortable haven for my animal friends. I don't mind cleaning at all! When dog walking, I always make sure their harness or collar fits properly and that the lead is secure. Right now, I am not offering a house-sitting service in my home.
Information Jenna B. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know as much as pawsible about your fur baby so I can give them the absolute best care. I specialize in rescues, elders and high energy dogs, but have had experience with babies as well. No size or breed deters me!! My first goal is always to gain trust and build a great friendship.
A typical day
I am very flexible when it comes to walking your dog. If you are currently training them, I can help reinforce those cues on our walks and visits. If you are potty training a puppy and they are learning to walk on a leash, I can help positively introduce the walking process with them. If you have an anxious dog, we can practice different force free methods like turning around or games near triggers with a reward to reinforce that they are safe and loved. I'm also into dog-led scent walks, did you know that dogs have roughly fourty times the amount of scent receptors that we do? I also love playing with my kitty friends. I always have a new "spare" cat wand in my car just in case!

Availability
I currently work part time in pet retail as well as homeschooling my two children. There may be a few days or evenings during the week I am unavailable, but my schedule is very flexible. Drop ins work best for me, but I love reoccurring walks and getting to build a relationship over time with your dog.
