Fun Times & Pawsitive Experiences!
Pet care experience
*JUST RELOCATED TO PORTLAND FROM TEXAS! AND SO EXCITED TO BE HERE!* I have been working in the Veterinary Field for about 10 years and have 2 years of experience working in a doggie daycare before that. I am well equipped to notice any signs of distress and to be able to handle dogs and kitties of any size or demeanor! I take the time to earn you and your pet’s trust and go at whatever speed they’re comfortable with. I will make sure every furbaby gets the attention they need and deserve! In fact most times, I have my bow wow backup and fiancé, Zeke, help me out, so it’s like getting two fun sitters for the price of one! We are, also, fully covid vaccinated! I am great at following detailed or complicated instructions and I haven’t met a pet I don’t like that doesn’t like me! Plus, I update mom and dad with lots of pictures of any fun adventures we go on (even if it’s just couch surfing lol) If you need anything else done like plants to be watered or fetching mail I am absolutely available for that, too! I am very aware of pet behavior and needs. My experience in veterinary medicine has taught me the signs to look for trouble and how to properly handle any situation. I am able to communicate easily with veterinary staff on behalf of your pet, per your instructions of course!
Reviews
We feel very good about leaving our dogs with jennifer! They are very well take care of and she does a wonderful job with all of their little idiosyncrasies!
Jennifer continues to be the absolute best and most thoughtful dog sitter we’ve worked with. She writes incredible (and funny!) updates and sends a ton of photos. We’re so grateful we found her!
Just completed our one year mark with Jennifer and she has been such a value add to our family. Trustworthy and flexible and takes the most amazing photos of our gal. Highly recommend.
Jennifer was absolutely amazing and I am so OCD about my instructions. I was so worried to leave my elderly Dachshund but she went above and beyond to deal with his separation anxiety, medical issues, and overall neediness. I will hands down be booking her again.

Safety, trust & environment
I try to spend the majority of my time with your sweet babies whenever we house sit and having a great, comfortable, safe, and fun time is always at the top of the list! When I need to run out to do a few dog walks or drop-ins I make sure to limit my time being out to 2 hours or less, that way the rest of the time is spent with your little guys at home!

Information Jennifer D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know any dietary issues, which veterinary hospital/veterinarian sees them, a full medication sheet, and any other quirks or special needs for each guy. -If they need extra walks -Can certain pets be fed together -What their favorite games, toys, and treats are!
A typical day
We love keeping your pets active if they need it, but also love a lazy couch potato ❤️ We love going for car rides (even if it’s just to the corner store and back), but only if you give us the all ok! And now that we're in Portland finding trails and parks and water should be no problem! Either way your little babies are going to have fun adventures they can tell you all about later! For walks (especially regular walks) I try to find fun new routes so we can see and sniff all sorts of smells and exciting things! Don’t worry I make sure to document every cute encounter, I want mom and dad to feel like they’re right there hanging out with us!
