I do have a full time job but I am remote so pet sitting falls right into place. Please let me know what you’re looking for and I would be glad to work on a schedule for your pet.

Information Jenna K. would like to know about your pet

I’m comfortable with any breed of dog. I can handle animals who are reactive or fearful. I do like to know feeding schedules, potty schedules, any behavior related quirks or triggers, and any other pertinent details such as preferred vet, allergies, or medications/supplements.

A typical day

Walks can be anywhere you are comfortable with. I love hiking, so nature preserves are a must! I can do monitoring in dog parks or something as simple as a stroll down the block. I do enjoying running light with pets or even taking them out with my roller blades.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Jenna! I have a professional background in veterinary medicine and several years of experience working with animals in both clinical and pet care settings. My experience as a Veterinary Technician provided me with a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, medication administration, and caring for pets with special medical needs. In addition to my veterinary experience, I am actively involved in the dog show community and regularly work with dogs of various breeds, ages, and temperaments. This has given me extensive hands-on experience handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs and dogs requiring specialized care. I have been pet sitting for many years and am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and other companion animals. Whether your pet needs medication, extra patience, a consistent routine, or simply plenty of attention while you're away, I strive to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care. Because I work remotely, I am particularly interested in in-home pet sitting opportunities and can often provide more supervision and companionship than traditional drop-in care. My goal is to ensure your pets remain comfortable, happy, and well cared for in their own environment while you're away.

We booked Jenna for a two day overnight stay. She provided pictures and updates throughout the stay which was very appreciated. They dogs seemed very happy and liked her!

Jenna has cared for our two fur babies on numerous occasions. We have a 7 year old Pom mix 22lbs. and an 8 mo. old Aussie shepard mix. We have been on 6 vacations where we had to leave our babies with Jenna. We are so comfortable with her that she even stays at our home with the dogs while we are away. She sends of pics and updates on their daily progress. Sometimes we even facetime with her. Its so comforting knowing she is there for us.

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.
