Pet care experience
Raised on a horse farm in Illinois, I’ve been taking care of a menagerie of animals since my childhood. My love of dogs (and cats) runs deep and my versatility with all breeds and ages is exceptional. In my adult life, I’ve raised 5 puppies into curious, athletic and empathetic creatures. I’ve been a volunteer at the Franklin County Humane Society where I was a regular dog walker and kitty socializer. I live with my poet husband, Jinx the cat, and Spy the English Labrador in Portland’s Back Cove. I’m happy to drop in and feed, administer meds, groom, play, etc. with your dog or cat. I have experience with puppies and seniors, big and small, couch potatoes or ball/stick enthusiasts. I have a Jeep and love to go on mini adventures in the neighborhood. My Lab can also join in the fun if your dog needs socializing.
Reviews
She was wonderful! Prompt, friendly, and always kept us updated.
Very responsive. An obvious dog lover. I’m excited to rebook Jennifer.
Jennifer took such good care of my pups and was so sweet with them :)
Jennifer is fantastic! She is an animal lover and a responsible pet owner herself, as well as my go-to dog walker and pet sitter for when I am traveling or need an extra hand. She is trustworthy, has a lifetime of experiences with animals of all kinds, and reliably cares for my dog and cat when I'm out of town. Please don't hesitate to add her to your pet care crew.

Safety, trust & environment
If necessary, I can watch dogs in my home on weekends for shorter stretches. My yard isn’t fenced, but I’m within walking distance to the Back Cove Recreational Trail and Payson Park. I’m also a short drive to the Ocean Avenue Dog Park.

Information Jennifer E. would like to know about your pet
It’s helpful if I know how your dogs like to be approached went entering your house. Let’s discuss what strategy will make them the most comfortable. I also like to know if they have any dog aggression and how they are with strangers approaching them on walks.
A typical day
Happy to romp in the yard or take your dog to the dog park on Ocean Avenue. If they love water, we’ll find a local lake or beach that suits their abilities.

Availability
I’m self-employed and have a flexible schedule to come to your home to play with/feed/let out your dog(s). I’m also happy to take them on a jaunt around the neighborhood to stretch their legs and get some fresh salty air. Weekdays during the middle of the day from 11-2 and after 5 pm work best. Weekends are very flexible.
