About: Hello, My name is Jessie! I am a professional dog trainer and animal lover. My affinity towards animals began in my childhood, where I grew up in the countryside and often brought home stray or abandoned dogs and cats. I was lucky to have a mother who supported me and my mission to care for the animals I would find even though she was a single mom taking care of 3 kids. Currently, I have two dogs and a cat. One of our favorite activities is embarking on adventures together, such as engaging in hikes and exploring new places. My two dogs are Yoshi, a 7 yr old jack russell mix, and Kamaji a 3 year golden retriever. Yoshi is dog selective and prefers dogs that respect his space. It may take him a bit of time to become comfortable around other dogs, which is where my golden boy, Kamaji, happily steps in. Kamaji is quite affectionate and would be delighted to form friendships with other dogs, only if they desire it. Ensuring everyone in my care is safe and comfortable is my top priority. In addition to our shared activities, we actively participate in various dog sports, including Barn Hunt, Dock Diving, Rally and Nosework. I have 12 years of experience in the pet care industry, including 5 years as a professional dog trainer. I am an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and Trick Dog Evaluator. As a trainer, I assist owners in improving their relationship with their dog(s) by making training fun for everyone involved. I provide educational guidance on canine learning and behavior, enabling my clients to develop a sense of assurance and preparedness for any challenges they may encounter. You deserve to enjoy your dog. My objective is to offer top-quality care for your beloved pets. The prices mentioned above serve as a starting point and may be subject to adjustment based on your specific requirements. For instance, if your dog is highly energetic and requires ample exercise, the price will be modified accordingly in order to cater to those needs. *please note that my prices include fee to utilize rover* I am a professional trainer and the owner of my own business, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. My schedule revolves around the well-being and care of animals. While your dogs are in my care, I will treat them with the utmost care and consideration, as if they were my own. In the mornings, I prioritize providing breakfast, exercise, and affection for the dogs. The specifics of my work schedule vary depending on my number of clients for the day. Typically, I am away for a maximum of 2-4 hours at a time, ensuring that the dogs in my care have sufficient time between potty breaks. To ensure the safety of all dogs under my responsibility, they are either crated or placed in a playpen when I am away. If your dog enjoys car rides, they may accompany me during my visits to other clients or if I were to engage in hiking activities. Many of my clients have spacious land or large backyards, which I am able to utilize for the benefit of my own dogs and the dogs in my care. However, it is important to note that for safety reasons, I do not permit client dogs to be off-leash in unfenced areas. I prioritize the safety, trust, and well-being of your pets in every aspect of my pet care services. Whether it's in my house, your home or during walks, I take meticulous steps to ensure a secure and positive environment for your furry companions. During your pet's stay in my home, I prioritize safety by implementing various safety measures both inside and outside of my home. I have installed baby gates to prevent access to areas where they may pose a danger to themselves, and I have a fenced yard to ensure they are securely contained. Additionally, I always provide constant supervision when they are not in their crate or playpen. I understand the importance of maintaining your pet's routine, so I make an effort to replicate it as closely as possible in order to ensure a smooth transition. Each dog is unique, and I tailor my boarding services to meet their individual needs. Whether they enjoy daily walks, playtime, or simply lounging around, I provide personalized care that caters to their specific requirements. This personalized approach helps create a positive and stress-free environment, making it feel like their home away from home. I recognize that leaving your beloved dog in someone else's care can be anxiety-inducing. Therefore, throughout their boarding stay, walks, or house sitting, I aim to provide you with regular updates. These updates include photos and messages, allowing you to have peace of mind knowing that your pet is well-cared for and content. If you are interested in my house sitting services, please be aware that I have a policy of bringing my dogs with me. Given my background as a professional dog trainer, it is important for me to prioritize the well-being of my pets, as well as the safety of your pets and your home. Rest assured that my dogs have had experience staying in various homes and have adapted well to different environments.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was around 9 years old, starting with my own pets and helping out with the pets of friends and family.

About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs for more than 20 years. My love and experience with dogs started at home—my dad was a dog trainer who worked with his own dogs as well as dogs belonging to friends and family. Growing up around that experience taught me how to understand canine behavior, respect each dog’s individual personality, and provide patient, attentive care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, and I especially love being outdoors. Hiking, nature trails, and exploring the outdoors are some of my favorite things to do, so when appropriate, I love taking the dogs in my care along for an enjoyable walk or adventure. I believe dogs benefit from both physical exercise and mental stimulation, and I always want their time with me to be safe, positive, and enjoyable. Pet care fits well into my schedule, and I’m available Sunday through Thursday from 9 AM to 5 PM EST. I enjoy having a flexible schedule that allows me to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, companionship, and personalized care. I provide pet care at the owner’s home through dog walks and drop-in visits. Check-ins can include potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and companionship. I am not currently offering overnight stays, boarding, or pet sitting in my home.
About: My main focus is to ensure that your pet feels loved and safe while their owners are gone. As well as prioritizing their medical needs. I currently work a flexible job that will allow me to work with your schedule. I also have weekends completely free to take care of your pups! Although I do not offer at home care for your pups.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Fortson. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
