Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Jen, and I am already in love with your pet! I worked as a tech at an animal hospital for 10 years, and a pet sitter / walker for 8 years. Because of my experience at a specialty animal hospital, I am able to medicate and administer sub q fluids and injections. I switched to working at home as of last year, giving me a flexible schedule, and can take last min requests. I really miss meeting and taking care of other peoples pet, which is why I decided to jump on Rover. It also works as a great excuse to take a break from work and go for a walk! I am very compassionate and patients person with a big heart.
Reviews
I've had multiple pet sitters since moving to Illinois. Not one can compare with Jennifer! I had 2 needy dogs, one who was 17 and a half and one with medical conditions. Jennifer came into my home and treated my "babies" as if they were her own. I had an irratic schedule that she worked hard to accommodate. She was kind, knowledgeable and easy to be around and communicate with. She was trustworthy. She sent photos and short videos every time she was with my dogs. And when I lost both of my best friends within 2 months of each other, her support and caring meant the absolute world to me. You cannot find a better person to care for your four-legged family members!!
Jen is a very reliable and experienced pet sitter. She is a vet tech and able to take care of special needs pets. She is the only one I trust with my crew
