I love that Jelisa keeps me up to date every day and is always great at letting me know how Ginny is doing.

Jelisa was so professional and our dog loved her from the beginning! She sent thorough and regular updates that really eased our feelings of anxiety To be completely honest we are the people who clean up hotel rooms when we check in, so when we heard our good boy got a little impatient and had an accident I fully expected to spend part of our first evening home tidying up a little bit. But as soon as we walked in we could see and smell that someone who cares had cleaned up. Long comment made short Jelisa is our new go to sitter!

Schedule

I work from home so I have flexibility to take breaks and give your pet attention . It also allows me flexibility to do drop in visits if that’s preferred.

Safety, trust & environment

I will cater to your pets needs. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I’m willing to watch them in the comfort of their own home. Otherwise, my home is well equipped to house them. I have a half acre fenced in back yard that is perfect for them to run around. All dogs boarding must be good with other dogs and small children as I have both. I do kennel at night and as needed throughout the day (when I’m not home) or if the dog shows any sign of aggression (I will also notify you). I do have kennels that I use, unless you prefer to bring your own.

Pets

A typical day

We can do whatever your pet prefers. Fetch, tug of war, lounge, you name it. **I typically do not do walks during drop in visits less than 60 mins long, and only do them if requested. I do not do walks during boarding as I ensure your pup has enough outside play time while they are here.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Jelisa can host up to 3 pets per night
Boarding - *please bring your pets food and feeding supplies, and any treats you prefer they have. *please bring any personal items you think will make them more comfortable. *Please advise if they have accidents in the house so I can appropriately prepare and protect my space. Excessive accidents may result in a cleaning fee. *If your dog is not good with children and/or other dogs, I may not be a good fit as I have both. *My dog, Busta is a barker and has anxiety. Once she’s used to a dog, she is great but gets a little loud at first. She is not aggressive, but I know this can scare some dogs/owners so I require meet and greets to ensure your pup and mine get along prior to accepting a boarding request. Drop ins - for any drop in visit more than 10 miles away from my home, there will be an up charge of $5 per day for gas, for a maximum of $25 per booking. Please know that I am unable to offer midday drop ins that are more than 10 miles away from my home during the week as I am limited on time.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
