Pet care experience

Whiskers, Wags & Walks

Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy kitty, I care for every pet like they’re my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, as well as cats who just need a little extra patience and love. From energetic walks to quiet cuddle time, I adjust to what your pet needs. I’ve worked with seniors, pets on medication, and those with special routines — and I always send photo updates so you can see your furry friend is happy, relaxed, and well cared for! Personally I've had both cats and dogs in our home for years. Currently we have 2 of each!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In your home, I prioritize maintaining a familiar environment for your pet by adhering to their established routines, feeding schedules, and preferred activities. I ensure their space remains clean, comfortable, and well-organized, while offering ample attention and affection. At my residence, the property is fully equipped with a secure privacy fence, allowing pets to safely enjoy outdoor time. Our home is highly pet-friendly, with an elderly dog, a 4-year-old pup, and two outdoor cats. Should your pet require solitude or a quiet space, we are easily able to accommodate this by keeping our animals separated for their comfort and peace of mind. Whether your pet is active and playful or requires more specialized care, I am dedicated to ensuring they feel at ease, comfortable, and well-cared for during their stay.

She's like family but better! Had to spend a week in Dallas for a friend's surgery but was able to concentrate on them completely knowing our pups were being loved on and spoiled. I'd say more but don't want her to be booked up next time I need a sitter...

Jennifer is extremely reliable and attentive. She meeps me well informed of everyone’s health and behavior and is extremely patient with my shy and sick kitties.

Always the best, think my Little Buddy might like her more than he does me.

Schedule

Caring for pets is one of the best parts of my day! Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening cuddle sessions, I build my schedule around making sure each pet gets the attention they need. I love the routine, the companionship, and the joy animals bring. Pet care isn’t just a side gig for me — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for every day. It keeps me active, grounded, and always smiling! As a retiree and empty nester, my schedule is open to accommodate yours!

To give your pet the best care possible, I like to know their routine, temperament, and any special needs ahead of time. Things like feeding schedules, medications, favorite toys, quirks, or any fears (like loud noises or other dogs) help me make them feel safe and comfortable. It's also helpful to know how they do on walks, around other animals, and if they have any training cues or house rules you’d like me to follow. The more I know, the smoother and happier the experience is for everyone — especially your pet!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
