Pet care experience

Reliable and Paws-itive Care!

I have over 30 years of experience caring for pets, ranging from dogs and cats to small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs, and farm animals like goats and chickens. My responsibilities have included: Daily Care: Feeding, providing fresh water, and administering medication as needed. Exercise & Enrichment: Walking dogs of various breeds and energy levels, engaging in interactive play, and ensuring mental stimulation for pets. Routine Maintenance: Cleaning litter boxes, picking up waste during walks, and keeping pet areas tidy. Special Needs: Caring for shy, senior, or reactive pets, tailoring my approach to meet their unique behavioral or medical needs. Communication: Keeping pet owners updated with regular photos and messages to provide peace of mind. Additionally, I have worked with pets that require extra patience or attention, such as rescue animals adjusting to new environments or pets with separation anxiety. My approach focuses on building trust and ensuring every animal feels safe, happy, and loved. 🐶🐱🐾

Jennifer did a great job house and cat sitting. I leave directions for sitters and she followed all directions perfectly. It takes a while for my cat to warm up to new people, and this stay was only several days, but my cat did start to come out before the stay ended, and seemed comfortable with Jennifer. Something that’s important for those of us with scaredy-cats. I’d definitely hire her again

Jennifer was amazing with my giant puppy Monty. She was able to get him very comfortable on her first day with him. She was also super flexible when our flight was cancelled last minute and she had to stay an extra night with Monty. Would definitely recommender her to anyone looking for a great sitter!

Tell me about your pets quirks and behavioral traits! I want to know how they interact with other animals, humans, and children. Temperament: Whether the pet is friendly, shy, or reactive. Triggers: Situations or stimuli that may cause stress, fear, or aggression (e.g., loud noises, other animals, strangers). Training: Commands they respond to, crate training, or house rules to reinforce. I also want to know about any known medical conditions, allergies, or past injuries. Do they have medications?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
