Stay At Home Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I love dogs!! They reflect my energy and zest for life. I’ve lived with dogs all my life and I love being with them. I’m a part-time pup parent; my eight-year-old Beagle mix has a co-guardian, so we split time with her. That’s one of the reasons that pet-sitting is such a perfect solution for me; it’s a wonderful way to spend time with more dogs. Beyond that, I’m overjoyed to be able to help owners by providing a home-away-from-home for your pups. I travel alot, so I totally understand how nerve-racking it can be to find a good dog sitter. The outdoors is my second home. I’m incredibly active. I love getting outside whenever possible. I live on the hike-and-bike trail and walk it around Lady Bird Lake whenever possible. There’s also a fenced-in, leash-free dog park where we can play and socialize. In the summer, I even coach Little League baseball with a league that provides low-cost baseball to low-income families--I love being around kids, too. I live on East Riverside, which I love. It’s a conveniently-located, beautiful area with warm and friendly neighbors. I work during the day as a freelance writer. In my spare time, I love going on long walks with my neighbors, or relaxing indoors with a good book or TV show. I’ve always been commended for my communication skills. I’ll check in frequently and thoroughly, keeping you in the loop and assuring you that your pup and I are having a wonderful time. If your dog benefits from lots of exercise, just let me know! We’ll hit the trails and the dog park even more. I’m quite flexible and will do everything I can to accommodate your dog’s unique needs and personality.

Jennifer takes care of my two boys - a Brussels griffin who doesn't warm up easily and Yorki and they adore her. she is like Mother Nature... animals just gravitate towards her. She is also very trustworthy and responsible.

Information Jennifer S. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs, so breed, size, and temperament are never limiting factors. But I will want to know everything there is to know before we start our stay! We’ll arrange a meet-and-greet so that your dog can start to get comfortable with me, and you can fill me in on everything that has helped past dog-sitters have successful stays. Or, if this is your first time leaving your dog in someone else’s care, I’ll run through a checklist of questions that you might not think of. We’ll cover medical needs, food, exercise, playtime, training, and more. If any further concerns arise after you leave, please reach out! I want you to put your mind at ease, and assure you that your dog is looked after in every way possible.

A typical day

We will get up around 7 for a walk. I will be at home checking email and making breakfast until about 8:30, then I will go to the office until about 4. When I get home, we will go on a long walk, then eat and watch TV for the evening. Quick potty break, and then bed! On weekends we’ll take longer walks and hikes, and spend even more time at the dog park.
