Certified Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I love being able to work with animals, it has always been my number one hobby, so to make that hobby into a career has been a dream come true. I am both a Veterinary Technician and a Pet Sitter with over 12 years of experience. I enjoy every minute of caring for the animals. Some other skills I have include; walking dogs, feeding animals, monitoring animals, injections, vaccinations, administering medication, and much more. I am also knowledgeable when it comes to recognizing normal/abnormal signs and signs of illness or disease. I am also trained and certified with how to approach, handle, have patience, and win over very anxious dogs or cats (Fear Free Certified). With my training and experience, your pets would be in excellent hands. I'm trustworthy, kind, responsible, hard working, reliable, and I treat every animal with so much love and care. If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to ask me. I hope to hear from you! Sincerely, Jessica I care for pets, in the client's home, as if they were my own pets. I walk them, feed them, play with them, give them medications (if they are on any), and most importantly I give them LOTS of love!

Jess made sure to take out bomber plenty of times and was really knowledgeable about all things dog! We were very impressed and will definitely book her again!

We have used Jess as a pet caregiver since last year. She has stayed over and has taken care of Charlie, our 4yr. old Bichon. She is an awesome caregiver to our Charlie and is like part of the family. I had to leave the house very early one morning, so to make it easy, she offered to come and stay the night before. She's always so caring with Charlie. We feel very comfortable with her in our home. She will always give you pictures and updates on how the day is going. We are so thankful for Rover and Jessica.

Jess Dog and house sat for us. She was great with our 3 boys. She gave us updates multiple times a day and made us feel like we had nothing to worry about while we were away.

Opal and Shadow love Jess! They were extremely well cared for and Jess took great care of the house. We will not hesitate to book again with her. She maintains excellent communication at all times and updates with photos and texts. This alleviated our anxiety about leaving for vacation and allowed us to have a great time. Her kindness, knowledge of pet care and her overall demeanor made working with her a “no brainer”!!?

I care for pets in their own home because that is where they are the happiest and most comfortable. I also do my best to stick to your fur babies' usual routine as if you were there so there is not too much change at once for them. This keeps them from getting overly stressed or sad while you are away ❤️

Information Jess A. would like to know about your pet

Important information to know about a dog ahead of time would be if he or she has any allergies to anything, if they need medication, any medical conditions, and also behaviors. For example: "Fluffy is very scared around new people" or "Fluffy does not like being approached". All of these instances are why meet and greets are such a great idea.

A typical day

We play tug of war, we play fetch, we go for walks around the neighborhood or on the walking trail if there is one near by. One pet I watch all the time LOVES when you take out the broom (to her it is a game) she gets all excited and pounces at it as you move it, it's the funniest thing!

Caring for animals is and always has been my passion. I know that working as both a Veterinary Technician and a Pet Sitter is what I was born to do. I make time to do both of these jobs and genuinely enjoy doing them 😊
