Pet care experience

Homeschool mom and animal lover

My name is Jeren! I am a local business owner, lifelong Eastern Shore resident and animal lover! I regularly work with and foster for several rescues in addition to petsitting, and have experience with bottle feeding, medical fostering, medication administration, and after surgery wound care, as well as light training, and “feral school” with feral and semi feral cats. Being my own boss allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and the ability to provide as many "in home" visits as your individual pet(s) requires, or give them as much attention, walks, playtime and quality time in my home as they need. For boarding stays in my home I do request that for dogs they be other dog and cat friendly, as I do own animals of my own. For cats I do have the ability to keep them separated from my animals and give them their own "room" with window cat perch, toys and bed that are all thoroughly cleaned between each client. I am a lifelong pet owner and have owned and worked with everything from hamsters to horses(even reptiles!), I have experience owning and working with high energy and working class dog breeds, as well as ferral and semi ferral cats. Pets are family, and when they are with me they will always be treated as such!

Jeren was able to watch our new pup on short notice and did a great job. She sent daily pictures and descriptive updates. Our pup looked like she had a blast! Additionally, Jeren had no issues giving ear meds and was patient with our pup's shy nature. When we need a petsitter again, we'll be contacting Jeren first!

Jeren took great care of our guys. Zippy was recovering from an eye infection and she made sure he had his medicine and well taken care of.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide several leashed walks per day, and well as play time in the yard, either on my long line(lunge line previously used for my horses) or in our chain link dog run(dogs are NEVER left unattended). In the home pets are allowed run of the house, unless separation is required. I do use crates or gate them in my kitchen/dining room area if I have to run out for whatever reason. This is to insure their safety and prevent them from getting into anything while unsupervised. I am able to provide crates of various sizes, up to XXL or you are welcome to bring your pets crate with them if you feel they would be more comfortable with their own

Pets

A typical day

For boarding stays, I live in a quite rural setting, so we will enjoy walks/jogs through the area, I also have access to a large private fenced area within 5 minutes of my home where they can enjoy running around off leash, play a game of fetch, splash in a kiddie pool(weather permitting), or just lay out and enjoy the outdoors. For visits in your home, my goal is to keep your pet(s) as close to their "normal routine" as possible!

Before sitting a dog I would like to know their temperment(are they super friendly? High energy? Couch potato? Do they have resource guarding tendencies? Timid and shy? Anxious with strangers? I can and have handled all of the above, but would like to know the information in advance so I know how to appropriately handle your individual animal(s) and best meet their needs). I would also like to know what your pets favorite activities are, if they are good with other animals, any medical conditions, special feeding instructions, or medicine administration schedules. I am non-breed discriminatory and will not turn you down simply because of your pets breed.
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.
