Pet care experience

🐾 Your Pet’s Second Favorite

I have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with daily routines such as feeding, walking, playtime, litter box maintenance, and administering basic care instructions provided by the owner. What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and my ability to quickly adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I focus on creating a safe, low-stress environment so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I’m especially patient with shy or anxious pets and make sure they receive gentle, consistent care. I’m also reliable with maintaining routines, including structured walks, medication reminders (if clearly instructed), and extra attention for senior pets who may need a slower pace or additional comfort. My goal is always to treat every pet as if they were my own—keeping them happy, healthy, and well cared for until their family returns.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care in my client’s home to keep pets comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision while keeping their space clean and safe. My goal is to reduce stress for the pet and give owners peace of mind while they’re away.

Jen as awesome with Sammi! She sent us photos of their walk and cuddle time together. Sammi was a very happy pup! Will definitely use her again!

House Sitting • Sep 06, 2026

Jenn is a very experience dog sitter! She watched our two pups, Noodle (Dachshund) and Azula (Pomsky), for an overnight stay. Both our fur kids seemed to have a wonderful time and were happy and comfortable when we got back. They clearly enjoyed spending time with her, and it gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands while we were away. She was attentive, caring, and great with both of their personalities. We’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets. We’d happily have her watch Noodle and Azula again! 🐾❤️

She is a true dog lover, I even gave her the "dog whisperer" nickname. Jennifer loves and cares for your pets as if they were her own child. My dog immediately fell in love with her as soon as they met and I saw how truly dogs make her happy. She is trustworthy, reliable and really goes above and beyond just walking/caring for your dog. If you want your dog to be pampered, snuggled, loved on and to be spoiled Jennifer is your person!

Schedule

I am currently working part-time and offer flexible availability to fit pet owners’ schedules. I am available on weekends and on weekdays after 2 PM, making it easy for me to provide consistent care during afternoons, evenings, and weekend trips. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and take pride in being responsible, attentive, and dependable. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping pets company, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. My goal is to provide peace of mind by treating every pet with the same care and attention I would give my own.

I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality! Before our visit, I’d love to know: 🐾 Their daily routine (mealtimes, walks, potty schedule, and bedtime) 🦴 Favorite toys, games, treats, and activities ❤️ Anything that makes them feel safe, happy, or extra loved ⚠️ Any medical conditions, medications, allergies, or special care instructions 🐕 How they do around other dogs, people, children, bikes, squirrels… basically anything exciting! 😄 🙈 Any fears, triggers, or behaviors I should know about (thunder, fireworks, separation anxiety, resource guarding, escape artist tendencies, etc.) 📸 And of course… the best spot for ear scratches or belly rubs! The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make your pet feel comfortable, safe, and like we’re already old friends. 💛
