Providing comfort, love and care

Pet care experience

Taking care of dogs and animals alike has always been a passion of mine. I love building chemistry with dogs, making sure they feel cared and loved for. I have been pet sitting/dog walking since 2004. I feel the experience I have with many kinds of dogs, helped me developed a gift of patience and understanding of what it means to connect with an animal. I'm willing to put extra effort into understanding your animal, so he or she will see me as a best friend and not an enemy. Your dog will see me as part of the family when you are away from home. Establishing a connect and friendship with both the dog and owner is something I strive for. Jobs that I accomplish with dogs: *Daily: walking, playtime, playing, exercise, feeding, etc. *House sitting: weekends, vacations, 1-day (I am very flexible) *Other: Doggie parks

Literally the best! Selfishly, I don’t want her to get too hard to book if everyone knows how amazing she is, but she deserves all the good things! I’m one of those helicopter dog mamas, and have very high standards for our dogs’ care. We had a not-so-great experience on Rover with another sitter, but thanks to others’ reviews, decided to give Jennifer a shot and are eternally grateful we did! First and foremost, she loves animals. She loves our dogs like we do, which says A LOT, because I’m a crazy dog lady. Jennifer has housesat our dogs 15+ times over the last 3-4 years and it’s so wonderful not to worry about our puppies on vacation because with Jennifer, we know they’re in great hands! One of our puppies is skittish, and she miraculously took to Jennifer right away (after braking aggressively at her once 🤷🏻‍♀️). She LOVES Jennifer and she trusts practically no one. Dogs are great judges of character, which is reason number 2 we know our opinion of Jennifer is sound! Lastly, Jennifer is simply a good person. She’s kind, reliable, easy to work with, loving—we’re so glad to have her as part of our fur family! Thank you for all you do Jennifer, we love you!

Jennifer is just as wonderful as her other reviews say, and more! We're obsessed parent pups, and dont trust just anyone with our girls. Jennifer's great reviews led to us booking her once, and her care, responsiveness and love for our pups led to us booking her again and again...and again. She truly cares for dogs, will take good care of your house, is responsible and reliable. I highly recommend her to dogsit or walk your furry friends!
