About Janice (prefer Jenny)
Hello I am Jenny,
I have a Certificate in Dog Care and working on Diploma in Dog Grooming.
As a long-term pet mother and would be honoured to look after your fur/feathered babies, while you go on your human adventures.

I am a very house proud, clean, security conscious, communicative, friendly, non-smoking, quiet living woman with a passion for spending time with animals, specifically cats and dogs. I come from a farming background and am comfortable with farm animals.

I am a Justice of the Peace (Qual), hence my propensity to being loyal, trustworthy, value the law and always follow the rule. You can trust me. I won’t be socialising in your property. Mine either, lol, I like my own company.

I have a current National Police Certificate of clearance.

As a fur baby mother, I have only ever known that when you want to go away you must put your beloved in a kennel. I found this terribly distressing and on one holiday I was so distressed that I changed my flight after 3 days, went home, got my babies out of the kennel and we made our escape back home. When I dropped them off, I was mortified with the small space and cage that all the babies were in. I had to prove my babies had been vaccinated etc. but I knew that I was running the risk of them catching things like kennel cough. It was horrific.
This is why I want to look after your loved ones in their own homes where I can take them for walks, just sit with them, cuddle them and make sure they are happy and healthy while you are away. In addition you get your house and garden looked after. No need for security or worry for you.

It has been my great pleasure to look after many dogs and we have enjoyed wonderful times going to the beach, on drives and walks, and exploring the countryside together. I have also cared for old and infirmed cats and dogs, giving them the medicine, time, love, and care to keep them happy and well. I trained working dogs and would happily embrace any training you might want undertaken.

I know what our loved ones mean to us, and I am 110% invested in your fur babies, home, and garden as if they were mine. My priority is your babies. I do not leave them unattended for any length of time, when possible I take them with me. They are my priority day and night. If it's dog/s I take them on adventures, play with them and walks.

Cats or other animals that don't usually want to go on adventures lol, I give them my company, physical love, grooming and attention to their needs.

It will be my true pleasure to lovingly tend your garden and always keep your home clean and tidy. I am particularly aware of safety and make sure that if I do go out everything is secure. I am a gardener in my DNA and must care for, create and bring things to life.

A three week sit in Millicent where I had 1 Maremma, 8 rescue cats, 4 chickens and 2 ducks I noticed the chickens and ducks were suffering in the heat and needed more shade so with permission I have devised great cover and more places for them to frolic.

I will send you pictures and up to date information about your babies and home daily so you will feel comfortable and relax on your adventure unless you advise otherwise. I commit to following all your needs and fulfilling your hopes.

I have cared for old and infirmed cats and dogs, giving them the medicine, time, love, and care to keep them happy and well. I trained working dogs and would happily embrace any training you might want undertaken.

Please reach out if you have any questions as I will be happy to answer them for you.

I look forward to meeting you and your extended family very soon.

Best wishes, Jenny

To whom it may concern
It is with great pleasure that I have been asked to speak on behalf of Jenny who housesat while we were on holiday over the Christmas- New Year period 2022/23.
Jenny made a point of establishing what would be required well before agreeing to taking up the position. This established a sense of confidence that our house and even more importantly my old labrador and older cat would be in safe and caring hands. Due to their ages both pets required quite complicated medication delivery and Jenny very professionally established what was required and when it was to be administered.
It was quite obvious to us during our absence that the animals were in safe and loving hands. This has been verified by neighbours subsequently and by the group chat that allowed us to communicate easily during our vacation.
My wife’s far too extensive pot plant collection was well watered – no easy task and additional gardening was undertaken. It would not be an exaggeration to say that our garden was in better shape on our return than on our departure!
The house was returned to us in spotless condition and we would be delighted to have Jenny look after it and my animals again. I would go so far as to say that Jenny may well have spoilt us for future house sitters.
I really don’t believe I can recommend Jenny too strongly and I would welcome the opportunity to add to these recommendations over the phone at any stage.

THEIR REVIEW OF YOU: Jenny was a breath of fresh air, we could not have been happier with everything she did. Polly, our British Bulldog befriended Jenny straight away and the feeling was I'm certain very mutual. We have even booked Jenny in for another dog sit and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone going on leave.
