Hi, my name is Jenny! I'm from Ireland, living in Haarlem with my partner and two small dogs, Daisy and Bear (Yorkie x Jack Russell) - you'll see them in my photos.
I have always been an animal lover and loved the idea of working with pets. I am currently on a sabbatical from marketing and look forward to working with pets via Pawshake.
Experience with pets:
Growing up I always had pets - from hamsters, birds and rabbits to cats, dogs, horses, chickens and goats (yes, all pets!) I love them so much that I became vegetarian at the age of 7 or 8 (I still am) and studied Zoology at university, before moving into Marketing. Over the years, we have kept many different breeds of dogs - Labrador, Border Collie, Yorkshire Terrier, Chihuahua, Jack Russell, Rottweiler, Foxhound - and all our cats have been rescues. I am very comfortable with all animals, big or small, and have lots of experience looking after pets of friends and neighbours.
Availability:
I am available for walking or home visits all day, weekday or weekend. At the moment, I can't offer overnight stays at my place but am open to house sitting.
My offer:
Trusting someone else to look after your pet(s) can be nerve-wracking but I've had some great experiences with sitters on Pawshake. I know how great it is to receive photo and video updates so will make sure to do this for you - it's the best way to see if your pet is happy and having fun! Routine can be very important to pets so I'm more than happy to work with their needs. For home visits, I can water plants if needed - I love gardening and have lots of experience with both indoor and outdoor plants.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have! 😃
Jennifer did a good job at taking care of a very shy cat and provided daily updates while I was away.
Jenny took care of our dog and cat for a whole week and was fantastic!!! She came to our home twice a day and spent quality time with both of them as well as fed them, walked our dog and cleaned the litter box. She also sent many amazing pictures and videos every day so we could see how well they were doing 😃. Jenny is a great communicator and it’s clear she loves animals!
We would highly recommend Jenny and we will definitely ask for her services again!
