52 Yr. Old Pet Owner & Lover

I've loved and mothered as many animals as would let me for as long as I can remember. I've been the owner of multiple dogs and cats, always helping others with their pets as well. Always the caretaker & growing up around animals & vet techs, I've rescued baby kittens, puppies and birds anytime I found them. I would (with the help of adults) find fosters, professionals or forever homes depending on the need. Animals & nature are my core peace. Living with my grandmother over the years, she always had mutitudes of pets and wildlife and I loved to be involved. I've had one on one interactions throughout my life with a multitude of animals well beyond dogs and cats (such as apider monkeys, marsupials, elephants, baby baboons, ferrets and snakes) & have found I love them all! As pets I've had I've had cats, dogs, fish, mice, guinea pigs and even helped foster back to health an injured golden owl as a child. All in all, I find joy in interacting with virtually all animals and would love the opportunity to assist in giving love and care to others pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I will accommodate as requested for pet care and routines agreed upon. I know that all pets enjoy routine and it helps to keep them calm and happy when that is kept as best as possible. I try to keep a calm volume even with excitement in the tone. Animals pick up on what we put out from moods to tones and they always read body language. In due respect, so do I. Being aware of temperatures, whether they may need shoes for foot protection, a jacket for warmth or to be held when it's thundering - being aware of an animals reactions to their surroundings and people is of the upmost importance, whether outside on a walk or inside the home. My goal is to always provide a calming and fun experience for pets, making them feel safe, secure, taken care of and loved, while putting the owner at ease that their baby is in experienced, responsible and loving hands.

Jennifer will be a great asset to your team. She sees my dog at least twice a week and never fails to show her kind and loving nature when handling my little treasure. She is one of the kindest people I know. She can be firm and has no problem with discipline when needed. Jennifer's love of all animals is evident, when she sees them, even if it's in a photo. Her personality is delightful, gentle, well humored, and she is adaptable to any task at hand. You will definitely appreciate her when you add her to your team. Sincerely, Jan

Jennifer John would be a great addition to your group. I've known her for over 25 years and she is a compassionate animal lover. She loves all creatures big and small. She is also very responsible and extremely trustworthy. I would trust her 100% to take care of any of my 3 dogs and 1 cat. I highly recommend her. Karen Draper 713-805-2470

I have literally known Jennifer J. for 49 years. She is my Cousin. I have personal, 1st hand knowledge of what a big heart Jennifer J. has. From a young age, Jennifer has always cared for animals. Many cats and dogs, most rescued, have been in her care. Many times Jennifer would use her last penny saving a dog or cat, or any animal for that matter. Even into her adult life she has rescued dogs and cats and have done everything in her power to keep them healthy and happy. She has the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known. I'm a little biased but it's true. She will treat your fur baby as one of her own. You will not regret using Jennifer J.'s services!!

Schedule

I'm a married 52 year old woman with a husband, 20 year old and 3 cats at home. (While surprisingly my husband is a 'cat' person, I love all pets!) I was recently became unemployed as well as being the managing/primary caretaker for my husband & his cancer battle of 7 years, missing much work for his medical appointments & transplants. This change however allows me more flexibility and independence to manage schedules and in short time to further my education. Helping with animals gives me a wanted and needed purpose beyond my home, allows time with animals, a source of joy & a calm for me and with less 'work' stress. I would love to meet you & your pets, get to know them and assist with their care any way I can!

Your' pets routines, fears and favorites, or allergies, no no's and encouragements needed are all things I want to know! Do you want me to assist with an aspect of their training on walks? Are there things that upset, excite or scare you or your fur baby? I'd love to know the quirks that make them work! Please let me know any details I need to make the experience for your pet as personal and detailed with their specific needs, loves or habits that you wish me to maintain!
