Safety, trust & environment

I will be sure to follow any and all care instructions you leave and will respect not only your pet but your home as well. Your pet’s happiness, comfort and safety are my top priority. I know first hand how scary it can be to trust a stranger with your fur child so I aim to make your experience as stress free as possible!

Information Jennifer C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or likes and dislikes so I can know how to best approach their care.

A typical day

There is a 100% chance of me talking to your pet in a baby voice and reassuring them multiple times about what a good boy/girl they are. On walks I always make sure to give pups time to sniff around because mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise.

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Jenni and I’m a lifelong animal lover with 16 years of experience taking care of pets of all sorts. I spent 3 years volunteering at the Evanston Animal Shelter where I learned how to safely walk dogs of all ages and sizes so I’m comfortable working with any breed. I also worked in their cat center so I can tell when cats want to play and get attention and when they need their space and patience. My own dog requires daily anxiety medication and eye drops so I am well versed in administering medication and providing comfort to nervous animals.

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.
