Pet care experience

"The Dog Nanny"/ Vet Student

I am a long time animal lover! I used to work at the New England Aquarium, training sharks. I upgraded to full time furry friend services in Winter of 2024, starting with overnight clients and then adding dog walking and hiking. I specialize in slow, quiet stays for older/low energy dogs, and can also handle many walks and adventures throughout the day to keep up with higher energy/younger dogs. Now Open: Looking for repeat dog walk clients and dogs looking for a regular Play/Hike Group. Please message me so i can see who is interested and if the interested dogs would be a good fit!

Safety, trust & environment

I like to know a bit about your dog and how they like to be approached so I don’t make them uncomfortable but mostly I wait until they come over to me.

Jess has been a reliable, flexible, and trustworthy dog walker for my 70lb hound/pitt mix! My dog can be reactive on the leash, and I have felt very confident to send her out with Jess. She provides great communication pictures every day, and adapts to meet the needs of my dog. Highly recommend for any animal care needs!

Jess recently watched our Golden at our home over several days, she was great - responsive, communicative, and our pup was relaxed and happy when we got home.

Jess was absolutely perfect. She watched my dogs over my wedding weekend and spent lots of time with them so that I didn’t need to worry about the dogs at all while I was at my wedding. I also accidentally locked her out of the house when she first came, and she helped me set everything up for a locksmith to come and let her in. She even made sure my hyper dog had 2 walks before I got home on the last day. Truly amazing!

Jess was great with our dog, Appa! He seemed to take to her right away and I know he appreciated the mid afternoon walk breaks while we were at work! She shared plenty of updates and photos from their walks!

Happy to sit dogs with special needs. I like to tailor each stay for each animal I take care of so that they have the best stay possible.
