Pet care experience

Walks, Stays, & Love!

I grew up with dogs and worked at a rescue in New Orleans, so I have a lot of experience with different personalities and needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and can adjust my approach depending on the dog — whether they’re high-energy, shy, or a senior who prefers things calm. I work from home, so the dogs get plenty of attention throughout the day, and we have a large fenced backyard for them to run and play. My daughter and I also have a two-year-old Bernedoodle named Olive who loves other dogs, so most pups feel right at home here!

I would give 10 star if available. I will leave my beloved dog with Jen, her beautiful daughter & loving fun Bernadoodle anytime. Everything on Jen’s profile fit the description through the photos and comments she sent while I was away. You must meet these loving and caring gems.

Jen was an absolute angel helping with Journey during a transportation hiccup and scheduling miscommunication between my trainer and me. I needed someone to bridge the gap between Journey being dropped off by her transporter and my trainer's daughter being available to receive her, and Jen stepped in without hesitation. Despite the uncertainty around the transport timing and ultimately an early 6:00 AM drop-off, she was communicative, flexible, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She not only took wonderful care of Journey, but also coordinated the final handoff and personally dropped her off for me, making what could have been a very stressful situation feel seamless. She sent photo updates, kept me informed every step of the way, and treated Journey like one of her own. I truly can't thank her enough. If you're considering booking with Jen, I would do so without hesitation. She went above and beyond in every way. ★★★★★ Highly recommend!

Could not have hoped for more caring and attentive sitter than Jennifer and her little helper. Plenty of photos and reports on his well being. She was very helpful and accommodating with logistics. Will give her two big thumbs up and would definitely recommend her. Will ask her again when looking for a sitter.

Jennifer did a great job caring for Hugo while I was out of town this week. She sent many photos of him and updated me throughout the day, which I greatly appreciated. Hugo was welcomed into Jennifer's lovely home and played with his new doodle friends when he wasn't cuddled up sleeping. It was much easier to enjoy my trip knowing that Hugo was safe and comfortable while I was away. I will be sure to book with Jennifer again!

Jennifer did a fantastic job caring for my dog while I was out of town. From the moment we connected, she was professional, dependable, and genuinely caring. She kept me updated, made sure my dog was well cared for, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. When I returned home, my dog was happy, healthy, and clearly comfortable with Jennifer. It’s obvious she truly loves animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. I would highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch my dog again in the future.

Schedule

I work from home, so I’m able to give the dogs plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. My daughter goes to school just down the street, so we’re home most of the time. We love going for walks and spending time at the dog beach in St. Pete, but we also enjoy relaxing at home. I’m very flexible and happy to adjust to whatever routine works best for your dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for dogs in my home like they’re part of the family. I have a large, fully fenced-in backyard where they have plenty of room to run and play safely. We also have a two-year-old Bernedoodle named Olive who loves other dogs, so most pups feel right at home here. I keep a relaxed but engaging environment — with a good mix of playtime, walks, and downtime. I’m happy to follow any routines or instructions you have so your dog feels comfortable and secure while they’re with me.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with me is active but relaxed! I work from home, so I’m able to take plenty of breaks throughout the day to play and spend time with the dogs. We love playing ball in my large fenced-in backyard, where they have plenty of room to run and burn off energy. I also make sure to include calm time, especially for any senior dogs who prefer a slower pace. Every dog gets lots of attention, playtime, and affection while they’re with me!

I’m comfortable with all personalities and can easily adjust to what each dog needs. I’m happy to administer medications and will always follow your instructions carefully. For senior dogs, I keep things calm and low-key so they feel comfortable and safe. Just let me know ahead of time about any special needs, preferences, or behaviors, and I’ll make sure your dog gets exactly what they need while they’re with me.
