Safe, Loving, Reliable Pet Care

Hi! I’m Jen! I provide calm, reliable, and loving care for your pets, treating them as if they were my own. As a mom and lifelong animal lover, I understand how important it is to feel completely safe and confident leaving your pet with someone you trust. My approach is gentle and attentive — I don’t just walk dogs, I pay attention to their energy, comfort level, and emotional needs. Whether your pet is playful, shy, anxious, or older, I meet them where they are and make sure they feel safe and cared for. ✨ I am currently completing a dog training certification through Rover, which helps me better understand behavior, anxiety, and positive reinforcement techniques. 🐾 Services include: • Dog walking • Drop-in visits • Feeding, fresh water, and potty breaks • Playtime and companionship ✨ I also offer companion-style care focused on helping pets feel calm, relaxed, and emotionally supported during visits. If your pet enjoys it, I may include a gentle calming massage at the end of visits. I am trustworthy, dependable, and always provide updates and photos so you feel connected and at ease. I would love to meet you and your pet 💛

Drop-In Visits • May 10, 2026

Jennifer has been such a great find on Rover. She was so invested in the care with my cat even before the cat sitting started, taking notes , preparing ahead of time . She has such a warm, friendly and kind approach when you meet her , even in our messages prior to the meet and greet . She sent thorough daily reports and 4-5 pictures a day which was so fun to see . I’m very confident in using Jennifer again for Rishi and feel so lucky to have found her !!

Jennifer is amazing with our dogs and really helped us out when we needed her. Animals clearly love and feel comfortable with her; even my chihuahuah who hates everyone comes up to her. Will be using Jennifer again and again. Thanks so much for taking good care of our girls

Jennifer was terrific! Reliable, kind, thoughtful, and an obvious dog-lover. Every day rain or shine, Jennifer took care of our dog as if he was her own. Thank you, Jennifer!!

Jennifer took care of our cat Daffy while we were on vacation and she did a great job! I got wonderful pictures daily and all the information about the visit. Now I feel calm knowing my cat will get proper care when we are out of town. I definitely recommend Jennifer!

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet has their own unique personality and needs. I carefully follow all instructions provided and prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine so they feel secure and cared for at all times.

A typical day

A typical visit includes a calm and attentive walk, time to explore and get fresh air, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. I focus on your pet’s individual needs — whether that’s exercise, playtime, or simply companionship. If your pet enjoys it, I may also include a gentle calming massage at the end of the visit to help them relax.

Please feel free to share anything that will help me care for your pet in the best way possible 💛 I’d love to know about any health concerns, allergies, medications, or special needs, as well as your pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. What commands or cues do you use? Are there specific likes or dislikes on walks, triggers, or things that help them feel calm and safe? The more I understand about your pet, the better I can provide a smooth, stress-free, and comfortable experience for them while you’re away.
