About Jenny

For as long as I can remember, I wanted a dog. I used to beg my parents, "Mom, dad, do you love me? Can I have a dog?" My guilt-tripping techniques didn't sway my parents (I'm thankful for that now :) I needed to prove that I was responsible, so we started small ... I practiced with hamsters! At age eleven I began babysitting and in less than a year I… Read More

For as long as I can remember, I wanted a dog. I used to beg my parents, "Mom, dad, do you love me? Can I have a dog?" My guilt-tripping techniques didn't sway my parents (I'm thankful for that now :) I needed to prove that I was responsible, so we started small ... I practiced with hamsters! At age eleven I began babysitting and in less than a year I had earned enough money as well as my parents' approval. I picked out a female Golden Retreiver puppy. Butterfinger and I enjoyed 13 years together. She was a great friend, and she taught me not only responsibility, but also loyalty and unconditional love. I began pet-sitting a few years ago as a favor to friends. Because I am extremely conscientious, honest, and responsible, a number of families have put their full confidence in me and have no reservations leaving me with their "babies."   

Reviews & References

5 stars

I highly recommend Jenny for petsitting. She took good care of my 2 Giant schnauzers and made sure they got exercise. She took good care of my house, too. I was worried that she'd have difficulty controlling my big dog which probably weighs more than she does, but she did managed to take them out on walks and play with them. The dogs seemed so much happier to be able to stay in their own home, and they didn't seem to miss us much! - Jessica F.

Experience & Rates

13 Years as a Owner

I was the proud owner of a loving Golden Retreiver from the age of 12 to the age of 25. Thanks to Butterfinger, I learned how to train a dog and how to care for a dog. I took her for walks, took her swimming, cut her nails, cleaned her ears, etc.

5 Years as a Petsitter

I have pet-sat for both large and small dogs, young puppies, and mature dogs. I have often stayed in the owner's home and performed household chores such as light cleaning and gathering the mail. I have taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish.
