About Me: I'm a 38yo public servant living in South Brighton, who loves looking after all kinds of pets at their home. I'm happy to travel 20 mins to a home.
Experience and history: I've been around animals all my life... multiple family dogs (Great Dane, German Shepherds, German Shorthaired Pointer, Kelpie), school class pets, and friends' pets. I've also owned fish and guinea pigs and currently own a Birman cat called Arthur.
While originally from Adelaide, I was in Canberra the last 10 years where I did petsitting for approximately 8 of those years. I have also helped out when visiting home and my parents are dogsitting; and done house/pet sitting for my relatives in Hobart! I've had some sick pets who needed regular medication and, on occasion, emergency vet visits.
About Me: I love the fact that I can keep someone's pet happy and relaxed while they're away. It's always nicer for animals to stay in their own home rather than be put in a random kennel where they may not receive enough attention and may become anxious.
My Services: Overnight stays - I will come and stay in your home for however many nights required, feed your pet as required, and keep their water topped-up. I'll also walk your pet as required. Your pet will receive cuddles and enjoy play-time - basically whatever they would normally do at home. Daily visits - these can be Single or Double; I will check on your pet, feed them and top-up their water bowl, and spend some time with them. A standard visit is approximately 1 hour depending on what is required.
*If medication is required during any of the above services I'll ensure this is given according to the owner's advice and guidance.
Please also ensure Emergency Vet details are provided.
All animals, big and small, young and old. I love them all so please get in touch if you want your babies to have an enjoyable and comfortable experience while you relax on holiday.
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. 7 days before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Jen is an outstanding pet sitter, one of a kind! We left our "special needs" rescue Kelpie with Jen for a week so we could take a much needed break overseas to catch up with family we haven't seen for years. Our dog is extremely anxious, she needs daily medication and a very understanding pet sitter. Jen went above and beyond to make sure she was well taken care of, she sent daily updates to put my mind at ease. Our house was immaculate when we arrived home. Highly recommend Jen to take care of your pets.
Jen was fantastic with our 3 year old German Shepherd and two cats. Left the house immaculate and updated us everyday. Already rebooked for our next holiday! 🐺
