About: I have raised puppies and cared for dogs. I owned 2 Belgian malinois and a German shepherd. I currently own a skepsky. I am good with big dogs. My shepsky is a very nervous dog so if you are someone who is worried about having a dog walker due to their puppy being scared I’m your girl. I am doing this on my days off from school. It is something to give me a break from studying and I really love animals. I clean my litter box daily at my own home and I ensure clean water and food for both of my cats. I am a clean person overall.
About: I've always had family pets, and currently have six of my own. I love walks and trips to the dog park, as well as, some couch cuddles - whatever your pet may need! After ditching my 9-5, I have a fairly open schedule! I'm looking to spend more time with animals, because honestly, what's better than that?! I live in the South Hills, so if you're close, I could easily visit multiple times per day/week. It is my goal to always promote a safe, loving experience for clients' pets. I carry dog-specific protection (pepper spray) to prevent any unfortunate encounters while out of the home and always make sure to double check the safety and security of the pet before leaving the home.
About: I can’t remember a time in my life without myself or my family having an animal. Over the years, I have cared for many animals and would consider myself experienced. I work Monday-Thursday until around 4:30. Other than that, I have ample free time. I am home most weekends and am usually available all day on those days. In our home, our animals are our family members and our schedules revolve around them. I can assure you that I will treat your animals in the same way.
“Jessi took amazing care of my boy spike!”
“She did awesome with my rott and Belgian malinois. She let them play off leash and they were so happy when we got home.”
About: Hi there! I'm excited to offer loving, compassionate care for your pets. I have years of experience with dogs and cats of all ages, and I’m familiar with both the playful energy of puppies and the special needs of geriatric and sick animals. Experience with Puppies: Puppies are full of energy and curiosity! I have experience with potty training, leash training, and providing tons of interactive playtime. Whether it's a walk in the park, a game of fetch, or simply snuggling up after a long day, I know how to keep your puppy safe, entertained, and well-cared for. Experience with Geriatric Dogs: Older dogs hold a special place in my heart. I have worked with senior dogs who require extra care, including helping with mobility issues, administering medication, and providing comfort during their golden years. I understand how important it is to offer them gentle attention, patience, and consistent care to make them feel at ease. Experience with Sick & Geriatric Cats: Caring for sick and elderly cats is something I take very seriously. I’ve worked with cats with various health conditions, including those with chronic illnesses, mobility challenges, or needing specialized diets. I have experience administering medications, ensuring they are comfortable in their space, and providing gentle interaction to help them feel secure and loved, even when they’re not feeling their best. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a senior dog, or a kitty in need of extra TLC, I’m committed to offering the same high level of care that I would give my own. I understand how much they mean to you and will treat them with the kindness, respect, and love they deserve. I am a graduate student at UC in the PA program. I am in class most mornings to mid-afternoon during the week. It is super easy to listen to lectures while walking a dog or playing with a cat! I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being while in your home. I follow their normal routine closely, ensuring they get their meals, walks, and rest as usual. I respect your space by keeping everything tidy and adhering to any guidelines you set for where your pet is allowed. I also provide regular updates through messages, photos, and videos, so you can feel reassured about how your pet is doing. Above all, I build trust with your pet through attention and care.

“Such a fine young gentleman! My cat is my absolute baby. He took such great care of her. It was my first time having someone babysit her for multiple days on end and he paid attention to my detailed list and was present and understanding of all my worried concerns. Without a doubt, I will be using him to help with my kitty Dyno and all her energetic needs next time I am gone. Fantastic care and great attention to detail.”
