Highlights
Pet care experience
Meticulous care for your pets🙂
I have experience with most pets. I specialize in “high maintenance” animals. If your pet’s care routine requires extra attention to detail (meds/ supplements, specific routines) I have experience with all of that. I have owned horses for thirteen years, dogs and cats most of my life, and have been doing animal care for over five. I am available to house sit as well.
Cat care experience
Jennifer also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I do not offer pet care at my home because I have a very territorial beagle who does not appreciate new furry friends :) I have cared for pets at their own homes for years and have references from many satisfied clients.
Ratings and reviews
Jennifer did fantastic with three dogs all of which are quirky and complicated. To add to the madness, she did it all during a snowstorm navigating terrible roads and ensuring our babies were taken care of. She was very responsive and I won’t hesitate to give her 2000 stars. We appreciate her endlessly and hope to use her again in the future.
Jennifer has been helping me with my animals (horses and cats) for years. I highly recommend her. She is wonderful -- meticulous about following directions down to the smallest detail, she shows up on time, and is good/kind with all my animals. I especially appreciate that she is observant and notices when something is a little "off" or unusual with one of them and brings it to my attention.
If my pets could write reviews, this one would just say: ‘Please don’t ever leave us with anyone else.’ Jennifer is basically a part of our little zoo now — the dog acts like they’re a rock-star every time they walk in, the cat (who trusts NO ONE) willingly comes out for snuggles, and even the pig squeaks like it’s a VIP welcome. She send the sweetest updates, makes sure everyone is happy and fed, and somehow leaves my house cleaner than I do. I’m starting to suspect the pets like her more than me… but honestly, I can’t blame them. 10/10 would trust them with our furry (and slightly dramatic) family every time.
Jen is our go-to for taking care of our horses (and our cat) whenever we travel. She has helped us out for years, including during extended trips, and I always feel completely confident that everyone will be well taken care of. She’s attentive to details and has come up with really good solutions to any problems that have arisen. We’ve had some various situations over the years — special diets that require soaking hay, meds that have to be kept in the fridge and given by syringe, ointments in the eye — and she’s fully capable of doing it all. She’s dependable, competent, and genuinely cares about the animals. I couldn’t ask for anyone better to look after them while we’re away.
Jen has helped take care of my pets/animals for several years. She watches our dogs, cats, chickens, and horses. We can travel without worrying about our pets when Jen is our animal care provider. She never rushes, and isn’t afraid to take initiative if she thinks an animal may need special care.

Animal care is my job. I have clients with a variety of animals (horses, goats, chickens, cats, dogs etc.) I schedule my personal activities around my animal care jobs.
