Jennifer can care for
Availability
I work full-time as a paraprofessional from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM on weekdays and am currently earning my master’s degree in elementary education. I’m available for pet care visits in the late afternoons and evenings after 4:30 PM, as well as weekends and school breaks. For cat sitting, I’m happy to stay for extended visits and can sit with your cat while I complete my schoolwork so they have calm companionship and supervision while you’re away. My schedule is consistent and dependable, and I always prioritize keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routine.

About Jennifer S.
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their normal routines closely so they feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I provide feeding, litter box care, playtime, and calm companionship during visits. As a paraprofessional and graduate student in elementary education, I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to details and instructions. I also communicate regularly with updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, cared for, and relaxed.
Information Jennifer S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about your pet’s routine, personality, medical needs, allergies, medications, fears, or any behaviors I should be aware of. I want to make sure I provide the best care possible and help your pet feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or has special needs, I’m happy to work with their individual personality and routine to create a positive experience.
A typical day
A typical visit is all about keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. For dogs, that may include walks, playtime, plenty of attention, fresh water, feeding, and lots of belly rubs. For cats, I enjoy interactive play, treats (if allowed), cuddles on their terms, and making sure litter boxes stay clean. I always provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and treated like family.

Pet care experience
I’ve had cats since I was 13 and have many years of hands-on experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs. I was able to help an older rescue cat become comfortable and affectionate over time, which taught me patience and how to build trust with shy or nervous cats. I currently have a tortie of my own, so I understand how important routines, playtime, and a calm environment are. I treat every cat like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away.
Reviews
Jennifer has cared for my two cats many times and has always been incredibly reliable, patient, and attentive to their needs. One of my cats can be shy, but she took the time to build trust and make both of them feel comfortable and relaxed while I was away. She follows routines carefully, spends quality time with them, and makes sure they get plenty of attention and care. I always feel confident leaving them with her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring cat sitter.
Jennifer has looked after our 2 cats for a few years now and is extremely capable, responsible and caring. They have formed an attachment to her and feel very comfortable when she stays with them when we go away.
