Jen Adamo - Jens Happy Pets
Hi, my name is Jennifer! Jen Profile Pic I have loved animals all my life and I’ve devoted many years to caring for pets from hamsters to horses. In my teen years I owned a horse, and worked on various horse farms. From there, I moved on to work at the SPCA animal shelter and gained invaluable experience in my position as assistant manager. I also worked as a vet tech at Community Animal Hospital. In this position, I was able to assist veterinarians and not only acquire more veterinary skills but increase my understanding of animal husbandry as well. My background in animal care and my incredible love for animals prompted me to open my pet-sitting business. I have experience with many dog breeds from tiny fluff balls to larger “bully breeds.” My animal family presently includes two rescues, “Boomer” the dog and “Mittens” the cat.
