I work full-time during the day, but I’m available for evening and weekend drop-in visits and walks. During the week, I’m typically available from 6:30 PM–9:00 PM. On weekends, I’m typically available from 1:00 PM–9:00 PM. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of consistency, attention, and quality time with pets. I make sure every pet in my care receives patience, attention, and reliable care.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. During drop-in visits and walks, I focus on things like feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and giving pets attention based on their personality and energy level. I understand that every pet is different, so I take time to learn their routine, preferences, and any special instructions. I also pay close attention to behavior and overall well-being to make sure pets are happy and comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful, dependable, and keep the space clean and secure. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pet is being well cared for.

Information Jerrica L. would like to know about your pet

I appreciate knowing anything that helps keep your pet comfortable, safe, and happy. This can include their routine, feeding schedule, energy level, favorite activities, leash behavior, medical needs, anxieties, triggers, or how they interact with other people and animals. I also like to know what helps your pet feel most comfortable so I can provide care that matches their individual personality and needs.

A typical day

A typical visit with me includes making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and engaged while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Depending on the pet’s personality and energy level, activities may include walks, playtime, fetch, enrichment toys, cuddle time, potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention and companionship. I enjoy creating a calm and positive environment where pets can feel safe, relaxed, and happy while their owners are away. I also provide updates and photos so owners can stay connected and have peace of mind.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a reliable and caring dog owner with hands-on experience caring for large breeds, including my own dog, Winston. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I offer drop-in visits and dog walks, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine closely — whether that’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I pay attention to details like behavior changes, energy levels, and overall well-being so you can have peace of mind. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m especially comfortable with larger dogs and can handle different energy levels and personalities. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Jerrica was amazing with my pup! She took the time to ask questions and learn about his routine to ensure he and I were both comfortable. She was always right on time for visits and showed so much care and patience with him. My dog was given lots of cuddles and love and I’m so happy I found such a trust worthy and caring sitter for him. We will absolutely be using Jerrica’s services again and again.

Jerrica has always had a love for dogs since I've known her. She is a great dog mom! She has also helped me out plenty of times when I need a dog sitter for my small terrier. Jerrica has a calm demeanor and that helps with big and rowdy dogs. She keeps them in line while also not being rough. I can tell that she truly enjoys helping animals!

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.
