Jen was so wonderful with our two pups. Highly communicative, took them on walks, and made sure to send us photos throughout their stay with her. They left happy and tired out from all the fun they had. Would 100% book with Jen again the next time we are in the Newport area. Thank you again, Jen!

Jennifer was a wonderful sitter for Leo! ♥️ Leo is often a little restless his first night away from us, and Jennifer slept with Leo on the couch to calm him down. She was also very responsive and communicative — we appreciated all the updates and photos. We are grateful Jennifer took such good care of Leo so that we could take a trip to visit one of our (human) sons! ☺️☺️

Jennifer was so amazing and gave us constant and thoughtful updates on our Amber. She even helped us have our Amber be a part of our wedding day and make it so much more special! Jennifer was the perfect person to leave her with and we’re so happy she was able to be there for us

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for every pet in my care. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, medications, and any special instructions from the owner. Pets will always have fresh water, attention, supervision, and a comfortable place to rest. I also have a 10-year-old daughter in the home, so any pets staying with us must be child-friendly and comfortable around children. Safety is very important to me, and I make sure all interactions are supervised and positive for both pets and people. I treat every pet like family and prioritize trust, communication, and compassionate care.

A typical day

A typical day includes plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles to help pets feel comfortable and happy while away from their owners. I like to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible, including feeding times, potty breaks, exercise, and rest. Depending on the pet’s personality and energy level, activities may include walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch, tug-of-war, interactive toys, outdoor time, or simply relaxing and getting extra affection. I also provide photo and message updates so owners can feel connected and reassured while their pet is in my care.

Before caring for a pet, I like to know about their personality, routine, energy level, medical needs, allergies, triggers, fears, and how they interact with children and other animals. Since I have a 10-year-old daughter at home, it’s very important that pets are child-friendly and comfortable around kids. I also appreciate knowing their feeding schedule, favorite activities, potty routine, sleeping habits, leash behavior, and any training commands they respond to. For safety and personalized care, I only care for one pet at a time unless the pets are from the same household. This helps me provide each pet with focused attention, a calm environment, and individualized care. The more information owners provide, the better I can make their pet feel safe, comfortable, and at home while in my care.
