Responsible animal lover!
Pet care experience
I've grown up with two golden retrievers and one lab, and many cats. In college, my roommates and I fostered a momma cat and her babies. Right now, I have two cats and a dog of my own. Therefore, I know how it feels to leave a pet alone and want it to have the best of care, and I'll make sure to keep your pet safe, comfortable, and active! I'm very reliable, responsible, and love working with pets! I volunteered at my local animal care league when I was younger. Right now, I volunteer at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria. I've been on Rover for almost two years now and have watched dogs and cats. People tend to book me for their cats, since I am a bit of cat whisperer, but I personally don’t discriminate between cats and dogs :) Please let me know anything relevant about your pet's needs and I'll be happy to accommodate.
Reviews
Highly recommend Jenny! She did an awesome job with our two cats. It was my first time using Rover, and Jenny was so helpful, making sure I selected the right services so I didn’t overpay (Rover is tougher to navigate when you don’t have a dog). Our two cats loved her- she sent pictures every trip, she was super communicative, and even spent more time than she had to with them on the last visit. I hope she’s available next time we go out of town bc I will definitely book w her again.
Jenny was so helpful in coming through for me during the Christmas holiday! She was a great communicator and took a bunch of great pictures of my boys that I really appreciated. I would definitely recommend her for any of your furry friends' needs! Thank you, Jenny!
I booked Jenny to do three 30-minute Drop-in Visits for my new kitty, Mochi, while I was away for 1 week. Since this was my first time leaving Mochi alone for more than a weekend, I was pretty anxious the first few days away mainly due to an initial miscommunication regarding the timing of her first drop-in visit. I expected an AM visit but it turns out she was only available in the PM for first day. Although the first check-in occurred later than I wanted, Jenny made up for it by agreeing to do the remainder of her check-ins in the morning. Overall, I would re-book Jenny and recommend her to others who need a Drop-In Petsitter Visit. I appreciate that Jenny was super responsive, patient/understanding with all my questions regarding status updates, and accommodating to any last minute requests I had. On the 2nd visit, she sent me great pics of Mochi - healthy and happy looking. This was a huge relief to see her doing well and assuaged any remaining apprehensions I had so that I could enjoy the rest of my vacation.
Jenny is awesome. Lots of great pics and she really takes care of the "kids" =)

Animals wouldn’t be coming to my home. For the clients home, I like to ensure that the pets are having their environment stay as similar as possible to what they usually receive, absent you!

Please let me know if your dog or cat has a toy preference, allergies, or anything else I should know! Is there a park the dog likes to go to?
A typical day
For dogs, we’ll go on several walks a day (again, depending on your needs). For kittehs, we can cuddle, play with feather wands or cat nip or whatever they prefer.

Availability
This depends on when I am booked; I telework two days a week so those days are more flexible. If I am at the office, I would come by before and after work.
