Pet care experience

After 20 years of teaching, I am grateful to Rover for providing me an opportunity to take a break and continue doing work I love! I have decades of experience in pet care including 5 years as a boarding specialist at a popular vet. I’ve done pet sitting, walks and care off and on for over 20 years. On the personal side, I’ve raised/co-parented more than 10 dogs and nearly as many cats. I adore animals and am thrilled to have this chance to get to know many more!

Jenny took such good carry of our puppy while we were away. He was so happy spending time with Jenny and she is a natural & experienced dog caretaker. Jenny sent me updates throughout their time together, which was very helpful. I would highly recommend Jenny and we look forward to booking Jenny again in the future!

Navi loved Jenny from the get go and it was such a relief to know she was in good hands while we were away. Jenny sent photos letting us know everything was well and communicated perfectly.

Jenny did get and took lots of pics so I knew the dogs were going great. She helped me last minute which I really appreciated. I recommend her to watch any pets

Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your pet with just as much love and attention as I do my own! I communicate carefully with owners to make sure I understand the needs of the pets and how best to help them enjoy their time with me.

Information Jenny G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for. I love dogs of all sizes, but it is particularly important to me that especially large dogs are leash trained and have limited reactivity to outside stimuli.

A typical day

I love hanging out outside (even in the rain!) and am always happy to go for multiple walks a day, as I do with my own little guy. Hiking and hanging out in parks happen regularly! I’m also a professional tennis ball tosser and toy tugger (when appropriate). But probably my favorite thing is to snuggle and give pets :)

My schedule is very flexible and I am able to do walks, drop-ins and sittings on both weekdays and weekends. During housesitting, I commit to not leaving for more than 4 hours at a time to make sure the animals are getting the attention they deserve! I like to get out hiking and would love to bring another dog along!
