Pet care is my full-time job, and I dedicate my days to ensuring that every pet I care for receives the love, attention, and exercise they need. I am available 7 days a week for drop-ins, dog-walking, and boarding, which allows me to provide flexible scheduling to meet the needs of both pets and their owners. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday play session, or an overnight stay at my home, I’m committed to creating a routine that keeps your pets happy, healthy, and cared for at all times!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well-loved. Boarding pets stay in a separate area from my personal pet-friendly cat and dog, ensuring everyone feels secure. Dogs enjoy supervised playtime in my spacious, fenced yard, as well as regular walks, while cats and dogs alike benefit from enrichment with toys, scratchers, and lots of one-on-one attention. I clean cats' litter pans daily and follow any specific instructions for enrichment, training, or medical care requested by owners. My goal is to make every pet feel at home and cared for like family.

Information Jennifer C. would like to know about your pet

I like to gather as much information as possible to ensure I provide the best care for your pet. Important details include any specific enrichment activities your pet enjoys, training protocols you’d like me to follow, and commands you’d prefer I use. It’s also helpful to know if your pet has any fears or things that make them nervous, as well as their favorite activities or comforts. Please let me know if your pet is allowed on furniture and any medical needs they may have so I can tailor my care to their individual preferences and well-being.

Pet care experience

** Sitter has access to Seaplane Base** Hi there! My name is Jenny, and caring for animals is my passion and life's work. With over 20 years of pet-sitting experience and more than a decade of professional animal welfare expertise, I bring a unique combination of knowledge, dedication, and love to every pet I care for. I spent over 10 years working at the Virginia Beach SPCA in roles such as Kennel and Cattery Technician, Veterinary Assistant, Cattery Manager, and Interim Veterinary Clinic Director. During this time, I honed my skills in animal care, behavior observation, and medical treatments for pets of all kinds. I was honored to be named Virginia Beach SPCA Employee of the Year twice—testament to my commitment and exceptional service. Whether your furry friend needs walks, drop-in visits, or a cozy place to stay, you can rest assured they’ll be in safe, capable, and nurturing hands. I am devoted to creating a loving, stress-free experience for your pets, including those with special needs, while keeping you informed every step of the way. My goal is to provide peace of mind for you and a happy, enriching experience for your cherished companions. Let’s chat about how I can help care for your pets like they’re my own! **Please provide a crate for pets boarding 2+ nights**

Jenny is a great Rover that I have used twice now and got so lucky finding her! She’s good with communication, trustworthy, friendly, and I can tell my dog loves her. She definitely makes your pet feel at home and I have peace of mind when using her services. 5 stars!

Jennifer was really kind and upfront about caring for my dogs who have some anxiety. She has such knowledge and skill she could manage them with aplomb and it allows me to feel comfortable leaving them with her.

Jennifer took great care of my diabetic cat! She was able to give her insulin shots and take care of her while I was out of town.
