Pet care experience

Experienced, loving pet sitter

I can care for your pet in Hillsborough and surrounding cities. I have taken classes on dog training and understand how to give basic commands and properly walk a dog on a leash, crate train, etc. The first time we meet will be in a public place conveniently located for you. I am happy to care for dogs, cats, and possibly other types of pets. I love walking outside and teaching dogs tricks, such as fetch, sit, and heel. It is important that your dog is not aggressive because I have an 8 year old child who has a lot of experience being around animals. I also have a submissive, well-trained, friendly poodle who gets along well with every pet she meets. ***For house sitting, my poodle and child will have to come along. ***I am available to let dogs out to potty as often as every 4-8 hours, though not more frequently than that (so I am unavailable to watch senior dogs because they need more frequent potty breaks than every 4 hours). Please let me know if you have any questions.

We had to travel for two graduations and it was wonderful to know our dogs were being so well cared for while we were gone. Jennifer is great with communicating and is very reliable. She also sends cute pics of our dogs. This is the second time she has cared for our dogs and we will definitely connect with her again!

Jennifer was a wonderful pet sitter. She was very communicative and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. It was clear Cypress was well cared for and in great hands the whole time. Jennifer was thoughtful, reliable, and attentive. I really appreciated how confident and comfortable she made me feel leaving my dog in her care. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.

Schedule

Pet care is a part of every day because I care for my own pets, and other pets fit right in with the family when they visit for boarding and doggie day care.

It's important to me to know whether your dog is trained, vaccinated, and good with children and cats so that I can be sure that everyone in my home is safe and healthy.
