With me, they're family.

Pet care experience

I truly love animals and I adore pet sitting! I work in animal welfare full time, and supplement my income part time by pet sitting. So for me, animals are my whole life! I have been pet sitting for years in various ways - providing in-home pet-sitting for previous co-workers and friends prior to launching my own pet sitting business 5 years ago. I am also a dog owner myself, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust watching your babies while you're away! In additional to pet sitting for the last few years, I have been working full-time in animal welfare since 2018. I promise to provide the highest level of care for your furry (or not so furry!) friends. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages, from eight weeks old all the way to the sweet seniors! I am Cat & Dog CPR and First Aid Certified. I have no problems giving medication or shots. I'm happy to make sure your pets follow their typical routines as much as possible while you're gone, so that there can be an easy transition in and out of my care. I also have extensive experience with dogs who have social and/or separation anxiety, as my two rescues both had issues with anxiety when they first came home with me. I have the knowledge to make sure your pets feel comfortable and happy while you're out of town! Thanks for taking the time to read all of this, and I hope you'll consider me as your professional pet snuggler while you head out for your much deserved vacation!

Jess took great care of my Kona and Daisy. They tend to be a little shy when their mom and dad are not around. She was very patient with them and allowed them the time to have them warm up to her. Towards the end, they were all best friends. She also sent great Rover Cards and pictures! Definitely will give her ring again.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Jess for our first time using Rover. She made us feel at ease, clearly loved dogs, and made the most of each visit with our dogs. We would gladly trust Jess with our dogs in the future!

An amazing sitter, she took care of our four sweet cats for 2 weeks, and we could not be happier. Our cats are vocal, happy, and healthy. I don’t think we could choose anyone else in San Antonio after the quality of service we were given. Thank you Jess!

Information Jess O. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference, I love all dogs! I’d like to know any allergies or medical issues. Also need to know if they are up to date on shots (specifically rabies) and any behavioral concerns, like separation anxiety or resource guarding.

A typical day

I'm all about doing what the pets are interested in. Whether you have a high energy zoomie who wants walks several times a day and excursions to the nearest dog park, or you've got a nama-stay in bed kind of personality who prefers snuggles and naps, I let the furry friends set the tone for what kind of activities we do.
