Animal lover

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with large breeds since I was a child. I lost my 120lb boxer three years ago. I got him at 8 weeks and he passed away due to stroke at age 9. Since I do not have a pet currently, I would love to care for someone else’s animals while they are at work. I believe animals deserve play time and exercise just like humans to be a better companion. I treat them like children and like a family member. I am available mornings into early afternoons. Summer and Fall you will find me roller blading with your pal! All year round you will find me playing fetch/ snuggling and giving your best friend the best possible attention to while you are away.

Jen was very kind and patient with our pup!! Our reactive dog wasn’t even phased at all! You can tell she really cares about animals.

As always, Jennifer was awesome! Hazel went to stay with her this time and she took her with to all sorts of new places, which was great for her. I recommend Jennifer without hesitation!!!

Jennifer did a great job taking care of my pets, two of whom are elderly with health problems. I also have lots of plants and flowers outside and she made sure everything stayed alive during our drought. She cleaned up after herself, too, which was great. We would love to have her stay again!

I am so happy that we found Jennifer. She took such good care of our fur babies from exercising our working dogs To babying our sick couch potato dog. She even took the initiative to wash our couch cover after one of the pup vomit on it. We were at ease on our first vacation without the pups because we know they are in good hand.

Safety, trust & environment

I only house sit! This keeps your fur child calm, happy, and content. I like to keep your fur child’s life as regular as possible. I walk daily 3x and keep their schedule as close as I possible can.

Information Jennifer J. would like to know about your pet

I do not accept on demand walks or last minute bookings! I do not have a breed preference, but I would like to be welcomed into your home with your animal next to your side. I am a firm believer of building a relationship with your fur baby before accepting a booking. I want to make sure your fur child and I are a good fit. I will follow a schedule that is consistent and routine so he/she knows that I’m going to be there to give them their exercise and fun.

A typical day

I love the great outdoors! If there is a lake or pond, that is where you will find us! Walking, rollerblading, playing fetch or snuggling :)
