Safety, trust & environment

When caring for your pets, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and your trust. Here’s how: Safety: I ensure your home is pet-proofed and secure, with a first-aid kit and emergency vet information ready. Trust: I follow your pet’s routine, respect their space, and keep you updated on their well-being. Comfort: I maintain a clean environment, provide cozy bedding and fresh water, and keep your pet engaged with toys and playtime. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities.

Information Jennifer M. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know your pet’s daily routine, dietary needs, and any medical conditions or medications they require. Additionally, understanding their likes, dislikes, and any behavioral quirks helps ensure they feel comfortable and well-cared-for.

A typical day

A typical day includes engaging play sessions with interactive toys, cozy cuddle time, and exploring new treats. I also ensure your pet's routine is maintained and they get plenty of affection and mental stimulation.

Pet care experience

I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs and cats with special needs. My calm and patient approach helps ease anxiety in pets, and I’m skilled at administering medication and following specific care routines. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and ability to quickly build trust with animals, making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Plus, I always bring a fun and positive energy to every pet I care for!

We are so grateful to Jennifer for watching our dog, Charlie, while we were away on an international trip. We had hired another sitter who didn’t end up working out and we came across Jennifer. She immediately replied to our need for an emergency sitter and came over same day to start an 8 day overnight stay booking. Jennifer sent multiple amazing updates throughout the day with the cutest pictures of our dog. We actually looked forward to reading them and seeing them! She took Charlie on multiple long walk adventures, played with, stimulated him with lick mats, games, and more. He looked so comfortable and content with her in the pictures she sent! Charlie has really bad separation anxiety and when she needed to step out, she always kept us updated and remembered to give him his stress vitamins. We felt so comfortable knowing Charlie was in great hands. Lastly, Jennifer cleaned our house and left it spotless! We never asked or expected that of her so we are so grateful for her taking the time to do that. I’d recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for pet care, especially if you have an anxious pet or special needs pet as she is incredibly attentive, caring, loving, and patient with them. We will definitely be using her again when the need arises! Thanks again Jennifer for all your help and taking care of Charlie! We were able to truly enjoy our vacation due to your love and care for him.

Super responsive, matched my pups energy and made him comfy and somehow left my home looking more warm and welcoming than when we left. She was an incredible sitter, 100% would recommend for any pet owner. You don’t have to be worried if she is with them and you get amazing videos and pics of your fur baby :)

Jennifer’s dog sitting services are top-notch! Not only is she incredibly attentive and caring, but she also has a special way of making dogs feel right at home. Our dog actually looked forward to his time with her, and we could enjoy our trip knowing he was in great hands. Five stars all the way!
