Pet care experience
Lucky for me I grew up with dogs all my life. My family's first dog was a Brown Lab, Bridgette then later a red nose Pit Bull, Bella. I'm now the grateful dog momma to Raisin, a brindle Pit Bull who is almost 9! In college my roommate had a Chihuahua, Tiny. I learned to navigate socializing a large playful pit puppy with a tiny😉, sensitive, senior dog. Being outside, soaking up the sun and bay breeze is my happy place. No walk will ever be too long. Sniffing all the smells is welcomed (hey it's how dogs can interact with their surrounding, why rush it?) and a game of fetch (either with a stick, ball, or frisbee) is always encouraged. Being an Operations Manager for almost 50 stores I've learned to think quickly on my feet, be creative in my problem-solving and patient while working towards an outcome.
Reviews
We realized at the last minute that our dogs would be alone at home for a longer period and we're very grateful Jessica already knew our pups and could come by. We have two dogs including one rather large one and one rather neurotic one, so we always appreciate when a skillful dog person can come by and provide them some care! It's also nice to receive photos and such for peace of mind. Thank you Jessica!
Jess did a fantastic A+++ job taking care of Coco for 4 nights and days. Coco was a rescue and is a bit skittish about people, but Jess is really intuitive and took things slowly and built up her trust. When I came back Coco was relaxed and in great shape. Jess was perfect choice and I'd have her back in a minute.
Jessica is amazing at all aspects of dog care! She helped me walk my very reactive dog recently and had no issues. She sent detailed information about how the walk went and offered training suggestions, too! Appreciate her very much!
Jessica was just fantastic. Our dog is pretty reactive to other dogs, squirrels, small children, etc. and I always looked forward to Jessica's reports of what went well and what didn't. Jessica was methodical and as a bonus it was a very educational process for us. Jessica was also was generous with the walks even in the rain. So happy!!

Following your care instructions, I will make sure to keep your fur baby safe. If they need to be crated, happy to do it. If they need to remain on a leash or in a fenced in yard, no problem. Whatever gives both you and your pet peace of mind I'm happy to oblige.
Information Jessica G. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has any triggers, excitables, meds, or specific (non -typical) care routines that would be helpful to know ahead of my first visit.
A typical day
We'll talk long, scenic walks. Spend plenty of time sniffing all the smells. We'll get a good game (fetch, toy hiding. etc) in to burn off your pet's excess energy.
