Pet care experience

Reliable, experienced and caring!

Caring, reliable, and experienced pet parent of a happy and lively 13-year-old male Papillon (retired champion show dog!). I have open availability in my schedule throughout the week. I would love to start taking care of new clients in Albuquerque. I especially love taking my furry friends for fun-filled long walks or having an impromptu photo shoot at your home to show off your pet. I'm comfortable with young, active pups and kittens as well as senior dogs and cats who require medication or other extra care for individual needs. I believe in creating a personalized experience for each animal, based on their preferences, activity level, and health. When I housesit, I am happy to include additional services beyond pet care, such as bringing in the mail and packages, watering plants, bringing the garbage and recycling cans around, and alternating lights to ensure it looks like someone is around while you are out of town. I have many years of experience walking dogs and pet-sitting overnight in my former hometown of Austin, TX, as well as in the Washington, DC area, with many highly satisfied repeat clients. I would be happy to have a meet and greet with you and your dog or cat (or rabbit or birds) to discuss more details!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

If you'd like me to provide some socialization for your small dog while I'm walking them, we can see if our pets get along first. I only care for one household's pets at a time. Let me know the pet rules for your home (if fur babies can sit on the bed or what else might be off limits to them). I am very careful to properly harness dogs when taking them outside. Your pet will never be left unattended while in my care.

Schedule

I have plenty of time to play with your pets! I have a flexible schedule. I am available throughout the day and on weekends and holidays.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Jennifer can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Is the drop-in visit mainly for feeding, giving some attention and playtime, and letting out to use the bathroom? Where are your food supplies and pet toys kept? How much food should be provided? Can they get treats? Is there any medication needed? Anything special I should know about allergies or fears? Preferences of your pet and their favorite toys or activities? What time do you need someone to come by each visit? Is the time flexible? How do you want to arrange entry to your home (keypad, etc)?
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.
