About: My mother has a dog sitting business called Your Place or Mine that I help her with regularly. I got on Rover to make some extra money while I'm in college. Furthermore, I've owned and taken care of dogs my whole life. Even now I have two of my own dogs. Since my Mom's more experienced with watching animals, she may help me with jobs from time to time. I work part-time and also go to school part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to stay with your pet(s) and check on them. I'll check on your pet(s) periodically and care for them as I'm instructed. I also have prior experience caring for older animals and animals who take oral medications or shots.

“Jennifer was fantastic with my cat, Emily! She did drop-in visits and was incredibly reliable and communicative throughout the entire time. She sent detailed updates and photos each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear Emily was comfortable and well cared for, and I really appreciated the extra attention she gave her. I came home to a happy cat and everything just as I left it. I would absolutely book with Jennifer again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”
