Pet care experience

Ace Ventura is my vibe!

Hello Pet Pals! I grew up with animals and learned early how to start taking care of them from puppies to strays. In high school, I would volunteer at no kill shelter for dogs and cats doing caretaker duties and playing of course! I was employed part-time at an animal hospital during high school for 2 yrs as a kennel tech. I kept the tradition of saving the random animal when I could and had a few fur family members since. I look forward to meeting your family and being their friend and quirky caretaker!

Jennifer did a great job feeding and playing with our pups! They were happy and well cared for, and we got cute pictures!

I was called into work on super short notice and Jennifer was able to help me immediately. I was afraid I wouldn’t find anybody to check on my dog with such short notice, but Jennifer responded very quickly to my request & followed my lengthy instructions. Immediately rebooked for 2 more visits! :)

Jennifer did a great job dropping in on my two cats over the past week. Sent pictures as requested and my cats seem happy. I look forward to rebooking in the future.

Jennifer is the best! Anytime there has been an issue while I was away, like a 3 day power outage for example, Jennifer has gone above and beyond to provide excellent care for my animals. I appreciate her more than she knows!!

Jennifer, Did a really nice job caring for our two dogs. She was available at the last minute for a weekend trip. The dogs seemed to enjoy their stay.

Schedule

I'm currently focusing on things that bring me joy so my schedule is pretty open after my monsters have had their needs met in the mornings. I work around the kids and hubby's schedules during the week so I'm typically more open on the weekends than weekdays. Weekdays I have more time in the evenings but can stopby in the mornings/ afternoons with some flexibility on the schedule.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for each pet as the furry individuals they are and after our introductions and them getting used to me, I try to stick to whichever routine they are familiar with.

A typical day

I love to cuddle and watch something that will be fun for and give belly rubs/scratches as requested. If toys are supplied, I don't mind a tug of war match and since I am working on my cardio, a nice brisk short jog may happen during our walks in my neighborhood.

Please let me know of any behaviors I need to be aware of. I have worked with dogs that have some loveable quirks that just require a different approach if needed.
