Trusted and caring pet sitter
Pet care experience
When it comes to dog walking and pet sitting in general, I follow the philosophy that I will treat your pets the way I’d want mine to be treated. As someone who has found dog walkers through Rover for my own dog, I know what it’s like to be on both sides of the app, and your pets are safe and happy with me! As I do with my own pet, I’ll end up singing your pets names in silly songs and make sure they get lots of love while you’re gone - whether it’s for a longer vacation or even just during the day while you’re at work. I’m also more than happy to bring in your mail/any packages that show up, water plants, and anything else you need while you’re away. I do have experience with reactive dogs, and have experience with various training philosophies. I’m happy to work with whatever training method you use when walking or checking in on your dog. In the past I’ve gone through all of the levels of dog training at All About My Dog in Natick, MA and both All Paws Retreat and Columbus All Breed in Columbus, OH. I’m very responsible and communicate well about how your pets are doing. I’ll always send you updates and lots of pictures!
Reviews
My 3 cats gave her 5 paws up! (I entered the 5 stars!) Jennie was interested in them, enjoyed playing with them, took care of the household things like mail, garbage pick up, plants, etc. She sent photos every day and was great with communication.
Jennie does making with Tater. I receive lots of pictures and you can see how happy she is!
Jennie is prompt to respond to messages and very flexible with meeting times. She made me feel very comfortable with my first Rover experience. During her drop-in visit she played with my dog, let her out, and refilled her water. She also sent me fun pics of their time together! I would highly recommend Jennie as a pet sitter!
Jennie did a wonderful job caring for my cat who requires an inhaler and medications. I really appreciated her communication and updates and she didn’t have any trouble with the detailed instructions I left. ☺️ I’d definitely use Jennie again!
About Jennie B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Having a stranger from an app into your home can be a little terrifying, but I will absolutely be respectful of your space. I’ll of course clean up any accidents that your pets have, and make sure muddy paws are wiped before going back inside. I also double check the doors each time I leave to make sure they’re locked. I also make sure to block the doors and enter quickly so pets don’t sneak out!
Information Jennie B. would like to know about your pet
I’d love to know if your dog has had any history of reactivity, what training methods you use with them if any, and if they have any allergies! Also it’s helpful to know their quirks and what gets their attention.
A typical day
We will go on walks around the area! I’m happy to do a brisk walk or a slower walk, and practice training as we go (like sitting and waiting at traffic lights/intersections). I’m also happy to practice training, play with their favorite toys, and of course giving lots of belly rubs!
Services
Jennie can watch in your home
Availability
My schedule is pretty flexible but typically early in the mornings and evenings work best on weekdays. Weekends I’m usually free during the day and can make any time work. Please don’t hesitate to reach out and ask if I’m available - I’m often able to make it work, especially if there’s a little flexibility on your end :)
