Safety, trust & environment

Although we don’t crate our dog at home, I’m comfortable doing so if that is part of your pup’s schedule. I believe it’s important to maintain a dog’s routine even when you’re away so I try to make sure that happens whether it’s on a walk or an overnight stay.

Information Jennifer F. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs or anxieties that I can accommodate. I am also comfortable with caring for pets with special dietary needs or who need medication administered.

A typical day

I love to make sure dogs get the stimulation they need so I always like to have toys or puzzles on hand. Depending upon your dog’s comfort and experience level, we can also go to the dog park or arrange a doggie play date.

Ready to spoil your furbaby

Pet care experience

Not only am I the experienced mom of a 6 year old Bernese Mountain Dog, I have experience sitting for dogs of all shapes and sizes- pitbulls labradoodles, terriers, Frenchies. I love to spoil my dog with walks in rock creek, dog bday parties and play sessions and hope to do the same for yours. I have a car so can transport pets to the park, the vet or to the hospital should an emergency pop up.

Jennifer took impeccable care of our beagles Meadow and Biscuit! She was super response/communicative, and we felt like our pups (and home!) were in amazing hands from the get-go. We could not recommend her more, and will absolutely be reaching out in the future when we need a sitter. Thanks so much Jennifer!!

Jenn is amazing with our 4 month old dog, Otis! She is super reliable, friendly, and a great caregiver for our dog. We wouldn’t want anyone else to come over and give him walks.

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.
