Affectionate & Attentive Pet Lover!

Pet care experience

Hello! I have been doing Rover since March 2022. I have grown up surrounded by cats and bunnies ever since I was young, and owned chickens as well for a few years. I have experience administering oral medication and insulin injections for cats, alongside oral medication and eyedrops for dogs. Currently I own 6 kitties and take care of my neighborhood’s registered cat colony of 10+ cats! I am an absolute cat person and overall animal lover! While I can’t own a dog of my own, I get my love in through Rover of all breeds and all ages of pups, alongside my partner's 6 year old Australian Shepherd! ***I do require a meet and greet for all bookings via Rover to be introduced with one another and ensure I am the best fit for your pet(s)!***

Jonelle did a great job taking care of our two cats while we were gone. They enjoyed lots of play time and were very happy on our return! She provided us with cute photos we could share with our family. We would be confident and happy to hire her again.

I can’t say enough about how great Jonell is! She is our absolute go-to for caring for our kitties, both the feeble old man and the crazy kitten. She has cared for them many times and I can’t imagine what we’d do without her. The old man needs some special care and the baby needs a lot of attention. She has been amazing about sticking to our requests and keeping us updated with messages and pictures. Our kitten especially can’t wait for us to go out of town so he can play with his bff. Thank you SO much, Jonell. We’re able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing they’re in such good hands!

Safety, trust & environment

When taking care of an animal my first priority is to keep your animal happy, while respecting your home and their boundaries! Itineraries will always be followed to minimal details, whether it be your pet goes for a walk at specific times, food prepared specifically, and allowed on/off furniture! I want them to be comfortable with me and have company when needed while their owners are away, whether that takes constant playing and attention or company! I like to ask questions about how to make your pet comfortable with a stranger while you are away. I love to send tons of photos and updates per the client’s request and making them feel at home. I always leave apartments and houses the way it was and clean up thoroughly before I go, communication is key!

Information Jonell M. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if there are any medication needed, their veterinarian in case of emergency, special needs, favorite toys and timing of when they normally are fed. And any spots they love being pet at! Also knowing if there are any dogs in the neighborhood they don’t get along with to avoid conflict, their normal walking routes, spaces the animals are not allowed/furniture they are not allowed on, and any important information crucial to the stay and their comfort!

A typical day

I send many photos and updates so you know your pet is safe and well taken care of! My goal is to give you relief and feel secure in trusting me with your babies. ❤️
