About Jennifer M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to make sure your pet is happy to see me and happy when I leave, comfortable, and gets to have fun. I’m safety focused and will do things like check the door lock multiple times when I leave just to make sure that it’s securely closed.
Information Jennifer M. would like to know about your pet
During a meet-and-greet, I will want to find out what type of interaction the dog likes (cuddling? fetch? solitude?), how energetic the dog is, if they have medications or health issues, and the feeding regimen. I will also want to know their favorite areas to visit for potty and walk breaks because many dogs are particular so I want to make sure I take them to their special areas for potty. house sitting requests, see section above for details. I do not have breed restrictions and am happy to care for any breed or size of dog or cat!
A typical day
I like to take dogs on walks around the local neighborhood, but especially love visiting any walkable nature areas! I tailor my speed on walks to the dog's interests and energy level, so it’s helpful to know what you’d like me to do on the walks (get them a workout, let them sniff, go slow, etc.). With cats I like to play laser tag or brush them, but if they enjoy solitude I can also just be present for their curiosity!

Pet care experience
I love every kind of dog, whether they are cuddly, shy, or have never-ending energy! I care for lots of cats too and would love to meet your kitties. I really enjoy getting to know each dog and cat I take care of. I’ve provided walks and drop-ins for many (1,500+) dogs, cats, and other animals as well (fish, horses, etc.). I’ve also cared for many other types of pets including fish, chinchilla, horse, and donkey. I've also provided overnight house sitting to over 30 clients. Prior to joining the official dog walking community, I cared for my energetic collie-shepherd dog for 6 years. Growing up, I rode horses and eventually owned and trained my own horse, and I’ve had 3 parakeets, a cat, and a chameleon.

Our dog is so excited to see Jennifer for her walks! Love getting the detailed updates about their adventure. Highly recommend!
Jennifer was great! Super communicative and kind with our anxious pup.
Jenifer was really great with our pups! She was thoughtful, punctual and dependable.
