Pet care experience

Pawsitive! Professional! Polite! :)

Dogs have had a special place in my heart for as long as I can remember. Unable to have pets at home as a kid, I sought out opportunities to play with and care for dogs at a young age. Since then, I've... -had my own pets (yayyy!) -volunteered as a puppy foster mom -run large-scale fundraiser events for dog lovers + their dogs, benefiting local shelters -pet sit for 20+ years! (both in my home as well as the pet's home) I am truly comfortable and content with all dogs, from playful puppies and selective seniors, to doggos livin' large. I am happy to reinforce basic training and leash commands you are working on at home. I reward pawsitive behavior through affection, affirmation, and...treats!!! (where applicable of course - not for dogs on diets) :) Along with my 20+ years of experience in pet and house sitting, I have 10+ years of experience as a professional nanny and 2+ years of experience as a personal chef. I know how to treat others' homes, and loved ones, with respect, loving care, and confidentiality.

Safety, trust & environment

Health, safety, and happiness of your dog is my top priority. I want your doggie to live their best life while I am with them, and that means lots of love and adventuring (depending on your pup). If your dog is on the shy and/or anxious side, I provide space for them to come to me when the time is right. In an emergency, remaining calm, following procedure, and staying in good communication with you stays top of mind.

Jess was amazing to work with and took such good care of our puppy and our home. She was reliable, responsive, and proactive in communicating each day about how everything went. Our dog seemed very happy spending time with her and we came home to a relaxed dog, clean home, and cookies!

Jess watched our 2 dogs for a week. She took great care of Baxter and Maggie - sending us updates and pictures daily. We came home to happy dogs and a very clean home. We will definitely use Jess again! I highly recommend her!

Please inform me of any sensitivities, allergies, or aggressions your dog may have. I am organized, detail-oriented, and great at following instruction- you know your dog best! - whether it be their favorite toy, crating, feeding, medication, or notes about behavior.
