Availability

I am currently flexible, as my primary focus is growing my pet sitting. I'm used to working with pets that can be on their own for 6 to 8 hours at a time, as I may do multiple drop ins throughout each day. However, let me know if your pet needs special attention and I am more than willing to see what we can work out!

Safety, trust & environment

I stand vigilant in ensuring your pets are safe and comfortable during and after the check-in. My goal is to develop a trusting bond with your pet by delivering the same level of care that you do, as a devoted pet parent myself. Under my care, your home will be left with clean floors & locked doors; and your pets with yummy treats down the hatch and bellies scratched!

Information Jess L. would like to know about your pet

I welcome as much information about your pets' needs as possible, so that your furry sweethearts can enjoy the most fun, safe, and comfortable visits ever! Key areas are behavioral tendencies, triggers, medical needs, allergies & sensitivities, commands to do & don't, and any areas you'd like me to help work with your pet on.

A typical day

There is no such thing as a typical day; for me, my activities will vary based on which pet or pets I am hanging out with! For the high energy pups, I love to play fetch with their favorite toys, tossing sticks and leaves, and then going for a chill walk out in nature to wind down. Your cat will enjoy teaser games with their feather wand and hunt their tossable plush toys, not to mention all the chin scratches and belly rubs she can handle. Senior pets receive extra love and attention to their specific needs.

Pet care experience

I am a devoted, attentive, and insured pet sitter, as well as a member of Pet Sitters International, proudly serving the Reading, PA area. Since adolescence, I have helped animals by volunteering at cat shelters and wildlife rehabilitation centers. I am experienced with canine behavior as well. As your pet sitter, I'll make sure your cat or dog feels and safe, seen, and secure in their home with their new friend Jess! And you'll be confident of this when you receive updates and photos of their happy faces at play. And when it comes to stamina, I'm all about matching energy levels! If your dog loves to run and play, we will go for long walks and do fetch until we're tuckered out. Chill pets and senior pets get extra cuddles and gentle care specific to their needs exactly as you would.

Jess provided incredible care for my 2 boys. She exceled at communication including updates, photos and reaching out with questions, which I greatly appreciated. Coming home to a tidy litter area, cleaned food bowls, and kitties that were happy was a joy. I would 100% have Jess watch Leo and Fyodor again. 🐈🐈‍⬛😻🙌💙

Jess was such a great care taker for our dogs. When we came over for a meet and greet with them she was very respectful of our existing rules and commands used. She was thorough in understanding their schedule and needs. One of our dogs takes longer to warm up to people and Jess was very patient to gain her trust so she could put the leash on her. She also gave great updates at her check-ins.

Jess was INCREDIBLE with our pack. I can say this is the first time we have ever travelled and not worried about ours dogs back home. Jess provided consistent updates and went above and beyond with our pups. They all adored her (even our judgey girl) and she took excellent care of them all!
