About: Hi there! My name’s Jordan, and animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently share my home (and couch!) with 2 energetic dogs and 3 hilarious, personality filled cats. They’re not just pets to me, they’re family. Growing up with animals taught me the importance of patience, playtime, and knowing when a belly rub or a quiet cuddle is exactly what they need. Whether your pet is high-energy and loves fetch or a shy cuddle bug who just wants some company, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, so I do everything I can to make the experience stress free for both you and them. I treat every animal I care for like one of my own, because I know how much love they bring into our lives. Let’s make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away! I'm fortunate enough to work from home so i'm always available and easy to contact. I will be 110% devoted to your animals and I will make my schedule fit around your needs. I do not offer boarding because i'm currently living on the Warren Airforce Base BUT, I can assure you that your home, dogs, and belongings will be protected and taken care of.

Katie did an awesome job with Reuben while we were away for 9 days! She was so great with communication and we could tell he was having so much fun going on walks and to the park with her. We will definitely use her again :)

About: Hello! I have 2 dogs and 7 cats of my own for about 9 years now. Throughout this journey of having my own, I’ve gained tons of experience in taking care of all kinds of dogs and cats. I’ve walked other owners dogs and I’ve done plenty of cat sitting visits as well. I’m trustworthy, reliable, and my availability is open. I can’t wait to meet your pup and/or cat. Feel free to message me with any questions 🙂 Working for Rover as a side hustle is very convenient for me. I get to do what I love and get paid at the same time. Although I don’t provide dog boarding services inside my home, I’d be more than happy to keep an eye on your pets and follow a set of instructions that you have for me to make sure everything goes well.

We absolutely love Jennifer. We had never really left our dog Luna with anyone apart from family, who live abt 3 hours away from us. On a recent long overseas vacation we didn’t have that option available and didn’t want to leave Luna at a pet boarding place. Jennifer was an absolute God send. Jennifer stayed at our place on the long vacation (2 weeks). We have used her services again for our week long vacation over Christmas. A couple things that Jennifer did that completely blew us away. She took Luna on multiple walks everyday, sometimes even hour long walks on the bike track. She took her on walks even when it was cold and had snow all around. She baked doggie cookies for Luna. She took her on car rides to the dog park close by. She let Luna cuddle and sleep with her on the bed. She even sent daily update photos multiple times a day. Jennifer went completely above and beyond. She even came back to let Luna out and take her for a short walk after work on the last day as we were getting back a little late in the evening. Incredibly caring, she is loved by our dog. We will use Jennifer’s services on all vacations going forward, if she is available.

About: I've raised animals of all sorts all my life so I am very passionate about giving the best care to any and all types of animals. I have spare time in my weeks to walk, play, pet and cuddle your pet. If you have a schedule set for them then I will keep them on it to the best of my abilities and if no schedule then I can wing it and even make one if you'd prefer. I supervise all outside time not just the walks, I keep a close eye on your pet to make sure no one gets into or out of anything their not supposed to and if you have a door charging pet I can keep them from slipping past and can even help teach them to refrain by request only. I work anywhere from 1-3 times a week which leaves me with a lot of spare time on my hands to help others furry friends. Though I don't offer stays in my home, I will be mindful of yours, if you have specific rules or routines for your pet I will happily uphold them and will always look out for the safety of your pet.

About: I have had animals my whole life and have taken care of many different breeds of dogs. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets for different periods of time. I have two brown tabbies of my own! I work as an educator at a high school so I am available during the school year after 3pm! I do have a weekend job that I work as well but the times are switched so I’m more available in the day time and not as free in the evenings. I have my own home and live in a quiet town where people regularly walk their animals! I love to get out and about outside so walks are a daily occurrence for me!

About: I've taken care of many pets over the years and I'm an animal lover in general. I have a Great Dane, bunny, turtle, and some fish currently. I have owned cats in the past though just not currently. I can handle big and little dogs even if they aren't the best trained then I'm the person for you. I have a lot of patience with animals. I can handle cats too I get they can have a variety of personalities. Whether they're friendly or not I'll care for them as you need. I will also take care of any other pet in your household if you need I'm not afraid of any animals. Due to college I'm not available during certain times Monday and Wednesday but other than that I have a pretty flexible schedule. I don't have any kind of full time or part time job. I just do dog walking/sitting right now. I walk 2 dogs Monday through Friday currently, I have room for 1-2 more dogs depending on the length of the walk and times. If I sit your pet in my home I have gated off areas so they can't get into anything that will harm them. They'll still have plenty of space they'll be kept in the living room and dining room which is connected so it's plenty of space. I'll be here the entire time I won't leave the house if you're pet is with me. I'll play with your cat or dog and give them the attention they need. I'll feed and water them at your scheduled times needed. I'll walk them and take them out when needed. Whatever the pet needs I'm here for. I do have a dog of my own and if your pet isn't friendly with other dogs then I will keep my dog separated from yours for safety reasons. I do have a bunny but it's in an enclosed room that your pet will not have to be near.

I know Jordan through church, I've watched him grow up as a kid. And I must say he's been such a light in my life. He's come over and done yard work for me on multiple occasions without asking for anything in return & I've seen him do other acts of service for other church-members. You just don't see many young people like him anymore.. Whatever he's doing, he has my support all the way through. - Danny

We absolutely love Jennifer. We had never really left our dog Luna with anyone apart from family, who live abt 3 hours away from us. On a recent long overseas vacation we didn’t have that option available and didn’t want to leave Luna at a pet boarding place. Jennifer was an absolute God send. Jennifer stayed at our place on the long vacation (2 weeks). We have used her services again for our week long vacation over Christmas. A couple things that Jennifer did that completely blew us away. She took Luna on multiple walks everyday, sometimes even hour long walks on the bike track. She took her on walks even when it was cold and had snow all around. She baked doggie cookies for Luna. She took her on car rides to the dog park close by. She let Luna cuddle and sleep with her on the bed. She even sent daily update photos multiple times a day. Jennifer went completely above and beyond. She even came back to let Luna out and take her for a short walk after work on the last day as we were getting back a little late in the evening. Incredibly caring, she is loved by our dog. We will use Jennifer’s services on all vacations going forward, if she is available.
