Loving & Reliable Pet Care 🐾
Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including different breeds, personalities, ages, energy levels, and individual needs. For dogs, I’ve cared for a variety of breeds and temperaments through walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. While living in Australia, I spent two months walking and house sitting an Alaskan Malamute, which gave me valuable experience handling a large, high-energy dog with patience and confidence. I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to friends and family and enjoy adapting care to each dog’s personality and activity level. Cats have been a major part of my life for over a decade. I have three rescue cats of my own, all former strays, and I regularly foster cats and kittens. Through my own pets and fostering, I’ve cared for cats ranging from bottle babies to seniors, as well as shy, fearful, and formerly feral cats. I’m also comfortable caring for cats with special medical or dietary needs, including administering oral or topical medications, using syringes for feeding or medication, and following specific feeding and care routines. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and litter box habits because I know that small changes can be important. I also understand how important it is to follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight care, medication, playtime, or simply some quiet companionship, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their family peace of mind.

Safety, trust & environment
When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved; just as they would if you were home. During house sitting, I stay in your home and closely follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding, medication, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I also keep your home clean, secure, and tidy, watering plants if needed, and making sure everything is just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I provide personalized care and attention, including feeding, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or backyard potty breaks, administering medications when required, and spending quality time playing or cuddling. Whatever your pet needs to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When it comes to dog walking, safety is always my number one priority. I use secure harnesses or leashes, avoid busy or high-traffic areas, stay alert to other animals and potential distractions, and tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. I never walk dogs off-leash and always ensure they’re hydrated and comfortable before and after each outing. Plus, I send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
My sweet senior Chihuahua was at ease with Jess from the very first meeting. Jess has a calming nature, which I believe my dog sensed right away. He’s quite comfortable with her already. Communication with Jess is prompt and thorough. I appreciate that she asks questions so that she may provide the best care. She sends photo/video updates giving peace of mind that my dog is happy and well cared for. There are many sitters to choose from on Rover, but I feel I hit the jackpot with Jess!
Jess was absolutely wonderful with my dogs! She did an excellent job keeping me updated throughout the visit with pictures and a detailed written recap, which I really appreciated. She spent time playing with them and making sure they were happy and well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. I would definitely recommend Jess to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter or dog walker. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
We are so happy we found Jess on Rover. We were scared to leave our dogs with a new person that may not know our pups but Jess hit it off with them immediately! They are always so happy to go on walks with Jess and she takes really good care of them. She’s also flexible and communicates well :) thank you Jess!
Jess really goes above and beyond with our pups! We love having her and we can tell the dogs are always so tired by the end of the day with her. She really does a great job and provides constant updates throughout the visit. We can the dogs really enjoy having her over!!
Happy truly enjoyed her visits with Hiu Yan (Jess). We felt comfortable with the care provided and she was very kind and friendly. Definitely recommended!
Jess was an incredible house sitter for our dogs. She took such good care of them and they absolutely loved her. She sends a lot of updates and takes the time to play with your pets. I would highly recommend Jess to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.

Schedule
Pet care is my full-time work, so I’m able to dedicate my days to providing attentive and reliable care for the pets I look after. I structure my schedule around my clients’ routines, whether that means morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, or overnight stays. Because pet care is my primary focus, I have the flexibility to give each pet plenty of individual attention rather than trying to fit visits around another job or busy work schedule. I’m also able to accommodate longer stays and, when my schedule allows, last-minute bookings. I truly enjoy making pet care part of my everyday life, and I’m grateful to have the opportunity to give pets the companionship, exercise, and care they need while their families are away.
