Experienced Pet-Sitter

Pet care experience

I have been a pet-sitter with Rover since 2017 and I’ve done over 50 different house sits and daily visits. Highlights from 5-Star House Sits: - Daily updates of pets including photos and details on pet's mood and eating habits - Customized care for pets that's based on pet personality, age, energy level, eating habits and play preferences - Clear, consistent, friendly communication from start to end of booking - Ample attention for pets during housesitting as I work remotely and am I able to be with pets 24/7 - Houses ALWAYS left in a clean, orderly and seemingly untouched condition At this time I’m mainly doing house-sitting for people who need to go away on trips. I have many trusted references in case you’re nervous about having someone stay at your house. If you’re looking for quality care, I’m your lady!

This was the second time Jenny stayed at our house with our two dogs and she did an excellent job again. We wouldn't hesitate to book with her in the future. She's dependable, communicates well, and leaves the house looking great. We have two high maintenance dogs who both need daily meds and she handles that without a problem. We really appreciate her and would recommend her to others!

Jenny took great care of our two dogs and our house while we were out of town. One dog is elderly, both need daily medication, and both are a bit high maintenance and she did a great job meeting their (and our) needs! She communicated well and sent regular pics. We would hire her again and would highly recommend her to others.

Jenny provided in-home, overnight care for my EXTREMELY spoiled cat, Ollie, while I was away on business last week. I always worry / get stressed out when I have to travel; he has been used to me being home 24/7 since I rescued him and he gets depressed when I'm gone- Even for just a few hours. I reached out to Jenny because of her experience with cats and her flexibility to work from home. From the moment she walked in at the meet-and-greet, I knew they were a good match- Ollie took to her immediately! During her stay, she sent me several updates on how he was doing, their play / activities, how well he was eating, their snuggle time... She sent lots of pictures, videos; it really took all of the stress away from me being gone. Jenny only left the house for a couple of hours one day- Other than that, she was with him the ENTIRE time and I came home to a clean home; she even washed the dishes and towels she used and left me a sweet 'welcome home' letter. All of that is above and beyond what I expected. And Ollie was content, which was the most important. I highly recommend Jenny for your pet sitting needs- Especially if you've got pets that suffer from separation anxiety like I do ;) I definitely will be booking her services the next time I travel. Thank you again, Jenny!!!

Jenny spent lots of time with my two kitties, which was really great. They also really warmed up to her! She sent photos of them and it was obvious that they were calm, well cared for, and happy. I highly recommend Jenny.

Information Jenny M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the cat or dog has any biting tendencies, how well potty-trained the dog is, and how the dog interacts with strangers.

A typical day

Some of my favorite activities to do with cats and dogs involve walking, playing with toys, and doing whatever the pet views as the most fun possible. If that's playing with a string, we will play with a string a couple times a day, if that's there squeaky toy, then we are going to get to squeaking. If it's sleeping in a certain nook, hey I am just fine with that too.

I am a life coach who works from home so I am able to be with your pets as much as possible. I also love to go on walks so if I leave the house, it will either be to take your dog for a walk or to take myself on a walk.
