About Jenna R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have several cats and two senior dogs, and I’ve fostered and rehomed countless kittens over the years. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Having a senior dog with arthritis, I understand the importance of mobility limitations, routine, and adapting care to each pet’s specific needs. I’m also mindful of environmental factors like heat, activity level, and social settings—especially for dogs who may be more sensitive or not as well-adjusted. Friends with more temperamental or anxious dogs often trust me to care for their pets because of my calm and patient approach. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra support. I’m comfortable with: Administering oral medications Post-operative and recovery care Senior pet care and mobility needs High-energy and anxious pets Multi-pet households I take a personalized approach with every pet—whether that means a long walk, a slower pace, or simply extra attention and reassurance to help them feel safe and comfortable.

Pet Care w/ Medical Experience
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Jenna — a medical professional and lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I grew up in the country helping care for rescued and abandoned dogs and cats, which made me comfortable early on with animals of all temperaments and needs. I’ve continued that passion through shelter volunteering and fostering, and I currently have two senior dogs of my own—so I truly understand the importance of patience, routine, and attentive care. With my medical background, I’m confident administering medications, assisting with post-operative care, and recognizing early signs when something may be off. I’m calm, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I treat every pet like my own.

Reviews
She’s so patient and I would recommend her, sorry about Bailey 😌
Jenna is great with animals and I would highly recommend her for walks or sitting. I have known her since we were children and she has a big heart for helping rescue or foster animals. She understands when animals may need extra attention and is especially good with different types of cat personalities. I would trust her to take care of my pets and you would be able to relax knowing she is taking care of yours!
Jenna is a very responsible, kind and caring individual. She effectively manages all of her pets (2 dogs, 4 cats) with ensuring scheduled food and supplements, medication as prescribed, clean environment, regular exercise routine and lots of play interaction. She truly loves animals and shows even the feral/stray animals compassion with food and water and shelter. She will do a wonderful job caring for others beloved pets as well.
