About Jennifer

Caregiver experience of over 15 years. Former social worker. References available. Ethical, reliable, and nurturing. I'm also an animal lover with 3 rescued dogs of my own. For adult caregiving, I enjoy being helpful including errands, transportation, shopping, help with medication, bathing, mobility assistance, pet care, meal prep, light housekeeping, and companionship. Companionship means genuine interest in what they enjoy. All of my clients are adults needing caregiving with needs that vary. I meet the person where they are at and what they need. All enjoy companionship and I take great pride in truly caring. Last but not at all least, I love dogs. I can help with feeding, playing, walking/exercise, cuddles, and just keeping them company. I provide the kind of care I would want for my own family or pets. Contact me to interview me further. We can chat on the phone to discuss your needs. Thank you!
