Pet Loving Single Mom

I have loved animals my whole life. I wanted to be a vet growing up but I couldn't do it because of the sadness of them being sick, so I settled on being a teacher instead. I have consistently had dogs for the last 10 years. My oldest dog has been through 3 training classes and has his good citizens certificate. I currently have 4 dogs and each of them were puppies when I adopted them. I have animal sat for many friends and family throughout the last 15 years.

Jennifer was very nice and professional and was good with slowly introducing herself to my dogs and they did great with her. Great personality and love for animals which is very important to me.

Jen was fantastic taking care of our fur babies. This was the first time we used a pet sitter and it was great. We would recommend Jen to everyone. She sent us pictures and updates during the week. We will definitely use Jen again when we travel.

Jennifer is amazing! She came through for our family when we were left high and dry at the last-minute. She gave daily updates and pic. This was our first time using Rover and I'm forever grateful she was the only that was available!

Jennifer treated my pets as if they were her own. She was on time with feedings, outside play and medication. I will definitely be calling Jennifer again to sit with my boys. I wanted someone who would not only watch my boys but engage with them as well. I found that and so much more in Jennifer❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I have 4 dogs already, so I am more than happy to come and care for your pets in your home. I know my dogs are more comfortable to be in their own home than a new environment. I will speak with you beforehand and find out what makes your animals most comfortable while you are gone (e.g. music on, tv on, special toys, lights left on or off) I also have no problem bringing in your mail, trash cans, or watering your plants while you are gone. I will send pictures so you know your animals are happy and well while you are gone. I will care for your animals as if they were my own!

Pets

A typical day

While sitting for your dog I will take them to any place that you normally take them to. If they do not have a regular spot I will take your pets for long walks while allowing them to sniff and be stimulated. I will also take to the dog park to burn off the energy if that is something you are okay with. I will provide the same level of care for your animal that you do.

I would like to know the energy level of the dog and how you want me to provide the same care that you do. If they have special toys or music/tv that soothes them I need to know. If they have special medical needs I will provide the care. If they sometimes don't eat when you are away that will be important to know also! Any information that is important for the care of your pet I want to know.
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.
