A LITTLE BIT ABOUT JEN
Jennifer Sawka is the founder and owner of Poopanators, a pet services company based in Denver, Colorado. Originally from Chicago, Jen has a background as a paralegal and private investigator. While working in the business field, she also enjoyed volunteering at local animal shelters, where she cared for abandoned and abused animals.
In 2006, she decided to follow her passion for helping animals and their owners and formed Poopanators, LLC. The business began with a focus on helping local neighbors scoop poop out of their yards and cleaning up the parks and recreation areas within the community.
As the business evolved, the primary focus became pet sitting while clients were on vacation or away from their animals for extended periods of time. With a desire to grow the business, Jen expanded from the southern suburbs to the city of Chicago and focused on the needs of dog walking within the community. Client relationships quickly grew, allowing for Jen to hire a handful of employees to assist her in a mission to provide quality pet care services while keeping the community clean and safe.
After 14 years of operating successfully in the Chicagoland area, Jen relocated her family and business to Denver in 2020 and is bringing her proven Poopanators brand to the Lodo and Lohi surrounding areas.
Jen earned a B.A. in Business from Robert Morris College. Additionally, she provides consulting services to small business entrepreneurs in the pet care industry.
