Expert Care When You’re Not There!

⭐️⭐️ Thank you all for your positive reviews over the last year! Since starting in March 2025, I quickly gained Star Sitter status and have maintained this by being reliable, trustworthy, and communicating clearly before and during bookings. I have had many returning customers to which I am very grateful - please have a look at my various 5* reviews to help you decide if you want to choose me. Due to Rover deducting a fee, my prices are a little higher to reflect this and the 5* quality of my service. ⭐️⭐️ Prior to every booking we can set up a Meet and Greet where I will come to your house to meet you and your pets, and to hopefully put your mind at ease that they will be in safe hands whilst you're away. Meet and Greets are not obligatory and many owners leave their keys hidden somewhere outside their house - it is completely up to you and what you feel comfortable doing. I have grown up around animals so I am comfortable and relaxed in their presence. Sadly I don't have any pets myself, so I genuinely love getting the opportunity to spend time with yours. I have experience caring for various breeds of dogs, administering oral medication and walking/training energetic puppies and large dogs. I have looked after many cats of varying ages and needs, and even the shyest or moodiest cats tend to warm to me quickly. 🦮🐾🐈

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a flat with no access to a garden, if you were to book daycare at mine I believe my living situation would only be suitable to look after small dogs and cats. I can of course walk them as many times as you need me too. I would prefer to come to your house if possible, where I will of course respect it as if it were my own.

Jennifer took excellent care of our two cats while we were away. She kept us well informed of how they were and sent lovely photos after each visit too. Great communication.

Jennifer was great and very responsive. I’m new to the app so she was also patient with me! My little cat is nervous, so she gave me good updates and also went on a hunt around the house to find her. Which I really appreciated.

Schedule

I work full time (usually 9-5) in an office and live in Southsea. If you are flexible with times I think we will be a great match, but even if you are not please still drop me a message and I will see what I can do. I tend to walk everywhere, but I do own a car so I can drive around Portsmouth easily. I prefer to stay on Portsea Island, but I am willing to travel to Cosham / Paulsgrove / Drayton for bookings for that are a weeklong or over. Please drop me a message anytime if you have any questions or want to get some dates in the diary.
