Safety, trust & environment

I respect your home to the fullest. I take everything into consideration, even down to asking if I should water any plants or take out the trash for you. I want you to enjoy your time away and not fear that your home or your pets are not being watched properly. I am well known for leaving the house even better than you remember leaving it.

Information Jennifer H. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know if there are any allergies, physical limitations and/or any medications involved when taking care of your pet during a drop-in visit since you personally may not be there to tell me verbally.

A typical day

I mainly focus on the things you list when I ask initially how a typical day is for your fur babies. I want you to feel comfortable by maintaining a similar atmosphere for them to endure daily.

Pets

Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine

Pet care experience

BACKGROUND INFO: Sitting locations (greater areas of Riverside and San Diego). I graduated with my doctorate in veterinary medicine. I own a small business so depending on length of stay I might bring my business equipment with me. SPECIAL SKILLS: -working with senior pets -working with special needs pets -have my doctorate in veterinary medicine -quick reactions in any emergency settings -comfortable giving medications (oral and injectable) MY OATH: To you, these aren’t just pets but instead, they are an extension of your family. I take pride in what I do. I have always had a deep connection with animals since I was a little girl. Such a connection that I made it my life goal to be a veterinarian. With confidence, I can pledge that I will treat your loved ones with respect and provide them with amazing care. As well, respect your home while I am inside as that is your place of peace and tranquility. I want to provide a service that not only brings you to ease of knowing your pet is being taken care of but that your pet feels comfortable around me. I completely understand the fear and anxiety of leaving your pet in the care of a stranger, but I hope at the end of using any of my services you will no longer see me as a stranger but instead an honest and trustworthy person.

Leaving my dog home during trips is difficult for me and I’m always a bit worried not just for my very anxious dog, but for the sitter in her care (it’s not for the weak). I appreciate how much attention to detail Jennifer requests and takes into consideration. With my dog being more needy and requiring medication, I can trust that Jennifer is able to handle my baby’s quirks with care, patience, and expertise. Thank you for caring for Ella and keeping her as comfortable and calm as possible during my time away!

Wow! Words cannot describe how amazing Jenn is. She stayed with our dog for two weeks. Our dog needed daily medications, suture care, and she even took our dog to the vet to get his sutures removed. She gave us multiple updates and pictures throughout the day. We felt very secured leaving Max with her. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our dog was cared for! We will always book with Jenn 🩷

Jennifer was great to my dog. She came over during Christmas and made sure my dog was well fed & taken out for his potty breaks . I can’t thank you enough.

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.
