About Us

My name is Jenni Deacur, and I am the owner of Critter Pal. As a pet owner, I know how difficult it can be to find good, honest pet sitter. We’ve tried kennels, only to end up with a sick dog. We’ve tried neighbors, but they too, proved unreliable. I’ve called local pet sitters, but none would care for my exotics or reptiles. So, in order to help others that may have the same problems finding somebody trustworthy to care for their furry (or not so furry) family members, I decided to start up Critter Pal Pet Sitting in 2006.

I love all kinds of animals and am willing to take care of your pets and your home when you’re away. There’s no animal too big or too small, too fuzzy or too scaly that I don’t adore. So if you need to leave your pets at home while you’re traveling, or when you find yourself working late hours at the office, give me a call. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you and your family.

Occasionally, my grandchildren may come with me. They all love animals as much as I do. If your pet does not appreciate having children around, please let me know so I can make sure I don’t bring them with me.

I have completed a professional pet sitter certification through the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS). I am certified in pet CPR and first aid through the American Red Cross. I am also a foster for SPCA Tampa Bay.
