Pet care experience

Lifetime pet owner and animal lover

Hi! My name is Jen and I am a lifetime cat and dog-owner! All my previous experience is personal, day-to-day care, however I have been a Rover since October 2024. I have some experience with advanced care/needs, and can be trusted to dole out medications to older pets if needed. I’d be happy to bathe/brush your pet but have no experience in professional grooming. My household is just me, so there are no other people/pets to worry about in the space if your pet is nervous or reactive. I work as an Education Assistant at an Elementary school in town, so I am available most days after 3pm and most weekends!

Jennifer was fantastic! She made my dog feel right at home, and provided regular updates with photos. 10/10 would recommend and would book with her again :)

Boarding • Apr 17, 2026

Jennifer provided our fog Ruby with a relaxing, comfortable and loving home for 3 days and 2 nights. She invited us into her home to see where Ruby would be staying. Jennifer gave us email and photo updates on the walks they took and Ruby’s naps afterwards. When it came for pick up, Jennifer had all Ruby’s belongings nicely packed and Ruby waiting outside as we drove up. We would highly recommend Jennifer for any boarding or pet sitting services.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a ground floor, walk-out unit, with a small mostly fenced yard for quick access for urgent potty breaks. I walk almost everywhere, and love to explore outdoors, even more-so with a canine companion! I can house sit if that would be more comfortable for your pet, but I am also happy to host them at mine! My unit is ideal for most pets, as there are no stairs or hallways to travel through, and I have a small, unfenced yard that can be used for urgent potty breaks.

A typical day

Beach, forest, and dog parks on the daily! Fetching, swimming, running, hiking, and digging if the locale allows! I am happy to go to requested trails, but also like exploring new terrain.

Recall (whether they’re good off leash—not a deal breaker but good to know of course!), friendliness with other dogs we may come across in our travels, and of course your pet’s favourite treat!
