Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet clinic experience!
Hi, I’m Jenna. I’ve been around animals my whole life—dogs, cats, and even the occasional exotic pet. I spent 4.5 years working at an animal clinic, mainly in the boarding facility, where I cared for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I also assisted on the hospital side, so I’m comfortable giving medications and noticing when something seems off with a pet’s health. For the last 11 years, I’ve been a proud cat mom, and I treat every animal I care for like they’re my own. This isn’t just something I do on the side—it’s something I really care about. My mom and I have actually turned pet sitting into a family business. If I’m ever unavailable, she may be able to help. If you're looking for someone dependable, experienced, and genuinely invested in your pet’s well-being, I’d love to help. As we get into the Holiday Season, please note- there is a separate holiday fee that gets applied to your booking request. Please be aware of that price change on your booking inquiry as what appears is not the normal price point for rover sitters! If the requested services are on the actual holiday that fee will be applied automatically by rover.

Ratings and reviews
She followed my instructions. With 9 cats and two dogs, there's a lot to do. Jenna sent several pictures daily. I would use her again.
Jenna was wonderful in taking care of our cat, Kiwi. She was patient, attentive and kind, and Kiwi warmed up to and trusted her in a relatively short amount of time. Jenna also kept us updated and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend her and would definitely book with her again! Thanks Jenna
Went above and beyond for our dogs!
Jenna is awesome. Will continue to use her to take care of my cat. Introduced me to cat tv and it’s been so fun
Jenna is the best!!
She is always awesome with my pups!!!!

Schedule
Pet care is a full-time part of my life now. After years in the insurance industry, I made the decision to step away from the 9–5 and focus completely on working with animals. My schedule is flexible and built entirely around the needs of the pets I care for—whether that means early mornings, late nights, or midday drop-ins. Because this is my primary job, I’m able to give your pet the attention they deserve and the consistency you’re looking for. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away—and I always provide updates, notes, and plenty of photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or hosting them in mine, I focus on keeping them comfortable, happy, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I’m attentive to their needs and make sure they get plenty of interaction, play, and care based on their personality and energy level. I have experience with pets of all ages, including seniors and those with special medical needs. I'm comfortable administering oral medications and keeping a close eye on any changes in behavior or appetite, especially with older pets who may need extra support and patience. When watching pets in their own home, I stick to their usual feeding, potty, and walk schedules to reduce stress and help them feel secure while you’re away. I also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how they’re doing. For boarding in my home: I live in a private studio space attached to the main house. While I do have cats, they are kept completely separate during any boarding stays—with two closed-off hallways and doors between them and your pet. This way, your dog won’t even know they’re there. I also have direct access to a securely fenced backyard for potty breaks and outdoor time. Meet and greets are encouraged so you can check out the space and feel confident your pet will be safe and cared for.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me depends on your pet’s energy level and routine, but no matter what—we keep things active, calm, and consistent. Walks, playtime, meals, and snuggles are all part of the day, tailored to your pet’s needs. If I’m caring for your dog in your home, we’ll stick to your usual routine. Walks around your neighborhood, fetch in the yard, or just relaxing together if your pup prefers a slower pace—it’s all about what makes them feel safe and happy. If your pet is staying with me, they’ll have access to a large, fenced-in backyard where they can run, explore, and play freely. I also live in a quiet neighborhood with minimal dog traffic, so outdoor time is peaceful and safe. Whether your pet thrives on activity or prefers a cozy nap spot, I’ll make sure their day is balanced and low-stress.
