Animal lover extraordinaire!
Pet care experience
I have lived with and loved on dogs my entire life, getting my very own dog when I was 15. Five years later our family dachshund was diagnosed with cancer and underwent radiation treatment resulting in a host of health issues. This began mine and my mothers interest in the natural side of things, and our excitement was fueled by sharing what we learned with others. Since then my love turned to passion and that passion into a career. I became a certified Pet Groomer in 2012, along side my mom and starting grooming with Oh My Dog Mobile grooming. I informally watched the dogs of family and friends throughout the years and have loved expanding my passion and meeting new friends, human and canine alike!
Reviews
Our pups love when Jennifer comes to care for them! And I gives us peace of mind’s nd that they are in such good hands with her!
Jennifer was amazing with little Benjamin! the house was well taken care of and very clean when i returned. Jennifer was very responsive to messages and ensured peace of mind when I was away from my baby. would definitely book again!
Jennifer was amazing! Her extensive knowledge and experience with dogs proved valuable while watching my difficult rescue! I’m ever so grateful. Highly recommend!
Jennifer is by far the best pet sitter I’ve ever had! And that’s saying a lot considering I’ve had dogs for decades (and my mom was one of the first pet sitters in Ohio back in the day). Not only did she take such good care of my dogs that they were only mildly happy that I was home, but the house was cleaner than I left it, my outdoor plants and fish were taken care of like this was her home. I know my dogs were very much loved and well cared for while I was away. Can’t ask for anything better than that!

While I do not provide constant care when staying in your home, I am typically “ home ” more often than not. When providing drop in care or walks I always strive to be on time. Unfortunately, sometimes things do happen and I am unable to arrive at exactly the scheduled time. In these cases, I will do my best to notify you as soon as I am aware the visit may be delayed. If I am delayed, your pet will always get the full time scheduled. I am happy to discuss your families specific scheduling needs and work with you to meet them!!

We will spend our time doing what your pet wants. If that's taking a walk 3 times a day, playing tug-o-war for waaaaay too long, or cuddling up on the couch, I'm game! We don't typically go for car rides unless requested for safety reasons.
