Safety, trust & environment

With over a year of experience as a pet sitter and walker, I have a strong understanding of animal behavior and work hard to make every pup and cat feel comfortable in my care. I offer meet-and-greets to ensure everything goes smoothly the first day!

Information Jennifer L. would like to know about your pet

1) Does your pet have any allergies or medical conditions I should be aware of? 2) Is there a time range in which I could arrive?

A typical day

I love keeping pets engaged with plenty of fun activities tailored to their energy levels and personalities! For dogs, I offer walks, playtime with their favorite toys, and mental enrichment games like treat puzzles or scent work. We can take a scenic stroll around their neighborhood, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. For cats, I provide interactive play with feather wands, laser pointers, or whatever toys they love most, along with plenty of cuddles if they’re up for it. My goal is to make sure every pet feels happy, entertained, and well cared for while you’re away!

Pet care experience

Hi there, my name is Jen 🙋🏻‍♀️ With two pups of my own—a beagle and a basset hound—I have plenty of experience and a deep passion for caring for dogs! I’ve been part of the Rover community for over a year and have loved every moment of it. I’ll make sure your pup gets all the exercise, attention, and affection they need. Dog care is a natural part of my daily life, and I treat every pup like family. I personally handle dog walking and drop-in visits, providing consistent updates, clear communication, and plenty of photos to keep you connected with your furry friend. Rest assured, your pup will be in loving, capable hands!

We have used Jen several times now, including an extended vacation for over 2 weeks. She is great! I am not even sure our babies noticed we were gone! lol

Jen is super communicative whether it’s regarding coordinating logistics or sharing updates about our dog, Bento. It really just helps put our minds at ease especially when we’re traveling. Highly recommend!

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.
