Pet care experience
Hello Pet Parents! I am Jennifer - a self starter who is responsible, professional, and trustworthy. I currently have 4 years of experience taking care of pets and provide you with a “Pet Sitter’s Guide” to complete with detailed information on how to take care of your pets and home to the best of my abilities. I am also pet first-aid & CPR certified, and equipped with pet care insurance to help bring peace of mind when choosing me to care for your pets. I am a 2x small business owner who works from home and can stay at your home full time. Knowledgeable in bathing, feeding, administering/injecting medication, walking, playing, and watching pets. I also have a reliable source of transportation which means I can bring your pets to the vet, park, or groomer. My Husband, Kyle, is also a seasoned pet caretaker/sitter/walker and is also pet first-aid/CPR certified. Kyle also grew up with 4 cats and 2 dogs! He can provide additional assistance if needed. Before booking, I always request a meet & greet to ensure that both parties are well-adjusted and comfortable. I am always on time and a great communicator - I will send you multiple photos a day and can FaceTime if requested. I know traveling is stressful and the last thing you want to do is come home to a mess, so I always clean up after myself and make it look like I wasn’t even there. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your pet and home. Thank you for considering me!
Reviews
Jennifer was such and amazing dog sitter for our two Australian Shepherds. We had a chaotic week before a trip we had planned for months. Both our dogs had to go to the vet for paw injuries that required them to be in cones and kept separate. On top of that our first sitter we had planned did not show up for our meet and greet before our trip. We booked Jennifer the night before our trip and she responded immediately and ask if she could come over within an hour to meet the dogs. She paid extreme attention to detail when we told her all she would have to do with our dogs and asked a ton of questions which really helped to ease our stress. While we were gone she sent us regular updates with photos of our dogs which also eased our worries. All in all Jennifer was punctual, professional and very caring toward our pups and the special situation. I would strongly recommend her to anyone.
Jennifer was amazing! We had just arrived in town and needed an overnight dog sitter. Jennifer had wonderful reviews so we reached out. She came over to meet our dogs and was clearly someone who loved animals. She gave us regular updates and the house was spotless when we arrived home. We highly recommend her!
We loved having Jennifer stay the night while I was out of town. I hate leaving but felt so much better knowing he was in good hands! Jennifer sent lots of pictures and video updates and even got to have a play date with her dog! Would definitely recommend Jennifer and would love to have her again.
Jennifer was amazing - very communicative and accommodating! She sent lots of pics and played a lot with my very energetic dog - a feat in and of itself! Would definitely book her again.

Safety, trust & environment
I have my own Golden Retriever, Summer and a pet hedgehog, Harvey, so I know the importance of a routine/schedule to keep your pets happy during this stressful time. Offering my “Pet Sitter’s Guide” helps ease this transition and makes for a smoother, happier house sit for both parties. I can also water your plants, collect mail/packages, greet additional home services, and I keep your home as tidy as possible.
Information Jennifer D. would like to know about your pet
I do not mind high energy pets, seniors, special needs or couch potatoes! Although, I do not do well with aggressive pets. Please let me know in advance of any allergies, aliments, or bad habits your pet may have that I should consider.
A typical day
Exercise = happiness! I know all different breeds have different activity levels and need different types of stimulation. I enjoy walking, playing fetch, tug of war, and snuggling! Did you know that 15 minutes of sniffing while walking is equivalent to 1 hour of regular walking?! Discovering new smells, the dog park, or hiking trail is always a great time and an easy way to tire out your pet. If all else fails, I love setting up puzzles or snuffle mats and watch them go!
