Experienced. Reliable. Caring.

Pet care experience

My name is Jenna and I offer pet care where pets are most comfortable, in their own home! I am happy to visit your pet (dog, cat, bird, ferret, fish, goats, whatever you've got!) at your home for feeding, medications, potty breaks, exercise and attention. (Bringing in the mail and watering plants is also included if these things are needed!) I am extremely comfortable and experienced with elderly and special-needs pets and can give oral, topical and injected medications as needed. I am also comfortable with pets recovering from surgery or that need to continue their physical therapy or vet visits while you are away. I have a day job so may only be available morning and evenings during the week. I am in town for holidays and school breaks and do not charge a holiday fee. ****Multiple pets in the same home qualify for a discount so please message for custom quote!**** I grew up with all kinds of pets and am comfortable with large and small animals. As a member of the Dog Training Club of Champaign-Urbana and dog training class instructor, I really enjoy working with dogs and their people! SORRY, AT THIS TIME, WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING ANY NEW HOME BOARDING CLIENTS. I AM STILL MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO CARE VISITS TO YOUR HOME, PLEASE MESSAGE FOR MORE INFO AND CUSTOM QUOTE. Info for existing clients only: After a Meet and Greet, your pet may be able to stay with us. My husband and I, along with our 2 dogs and 1 cat, would love to entertain your furry friend. IMPORTANT INFO: We both work during the week so dogs are crated during the day with an hour long lunch break, free in the evenings and then crated overnight. For many dogs (including our own) this is their current routine at home and they are comfortable with this. These are the dogs that our home boarding works well for. If your dog is not crated regularly or sleeps in bed with you, our home is not the right fit. Our smoke-free house is a three bedroom with attached garage and large windows, great for watching birds! Our dogs LOVE spending time in our large fully fenced backyard, chasing rabbits and squirrels, We can pick up and drop off if needed. And in case of emergencies, we are less than a 10 minute drive from the Animal Emergency Clinic. BEFORE REQUESTING A MEET AND GREET, PLEASE READ: Your dog must be house-trained, dog and cat friendly, crate trained (meaning they are accustomed to sleeping quietly in their closed crate overnight) and up-to-date on vaccinations. Feel free to contact me to schedule a meet & greet or if you have any questions!

Our experience with Jenna is overshadowed by two negative aspects. One is that she didn't provide the service we expected. At the time we made a reservation with her, she was offering 30-minute visits with a pet for $20 each visit. We booked her for 6 consecutive visits and expected her to stay 30 minutes each visit. As it turned out, she stayed 30 minutes only once, and the length of her average visit was 20 minutes. She didn't make contact with out pet on the first visit. The other negative aspect of Jenna's service is that she allowed someone we did not know into our home. She didn't ask us if this would be okay beforehand. We feel this was a serious threat to our home security. We discovered the length of her visits and the person she allowed in by reviewing our video doorbell footage. Jenna didn't try to refute these claims when we presented them to her. When we asked her for a partial refund, she gave us a full refund but this also had the side-effect of preventing us from leaving a review. Only after contacting Rover could we regain the ability to leave a review. Positive aspects of our experience with Jenna are that our pet appears healthy after her care. We also discovered that Rover takes customer complaints seriously and we feel the company did as much as possible to hear our complaints and address them appropriately.

Jenna was great! We felt very comfortable with her right off the bat and love that she has extensive dog training background. Would definitely book her again!
