I work remotely, so I can work anywhere with a wifi connection. I am able to do nearby walks and drop in visits during the day. I do have two cats, so if I am house sitting I will need to leave at least once a day to check on them.

Safety, trust & environment

I am really passionate about animal welfare and safety and have worked with a lot of different personalities of animals. I am willing to follow thorough instructions for any animal that might need additional care. Happy to mask up and follow COVID safety protocols upon request!

Information Jennifer R. would like to know about your pet

I am open to all types of dogs, but I really like to be able to understand their personality, especially prior to walks . The more information I have about a dog, the better I can accommodate them. As a note: If your dog is over 75 pounds I am unable to pick up or fully hold back a dog this size, so knowing if they have a tendency to run at other dogs or people is very important.

A typical day

I love to get to know every animal and discover their favorite toys, activities, treats, and games, as well as really understand their unique personality. I'm happy to take dogs to known favorite places or discover new areas with them if wanted.

Dog and Cat Lover, Works from Home

Pet care experience

I've had a love for cats and dogs since I was young and grew up around both of them. As a child, I helped take care of our elderly lab and cairn terriers. I currently have two cats of my own. I have done house sits for several types of pets including large dogs (up to St. Bernards) , small dogs (<10 pounds), rabbits, cats, and corn snakes. I have taken care of both elderly dogs and puppies, and have experience with administering oral medications, ear drops, and suppositories. I have experience with basic grooming for both dogs and cats. I love to meet new animals and explore neighborhoods on walks. I am always willing to learn more to better accommodate an animal!

Still obsessed with Jennifer. Will always ask her to watch the babies. She sends the best updates, I know they’re in good hands, and I can’t tell they love her ❤️

Jennifer watched our three cats, providing regular updates and pictures while providing them playtime and care. She is great with them!

Jennifer was very responsive and provided detailed updates and photos. I could see that my cat, Sam, was very comfortable with Jennifer and would definitely trust her again to take care of him.
