Dog Groomer and Pet Sitter

Pet care experience

I have 10 years of experience with pet care and grooming. I am able to house sit, train, exercise, play with, watch, feed, medicate, and groom your dogs. I have 10 years of experience in pet care and have spent the past 2 years building the foundation for my grooming business. I am experienced in providing life saving medication involving a syringe and needle, the heimlich for dogs, and caring for special needs animals. I am a believer in positive reinforcement and that pain should not be a training tool. I am comfortable working with all breeds of dogs, cats, rabbits and other small animals, reptiles, and fish.

I would highly, highly recommend Jess to care for your pet. She is a very compassionate animal lover and has experience with numerous kinds of animals. She has personally cared for, groomed and "Pet sat" for me with both my older black lab as well as my energetic rough coat collie. My dogs are always so excited to see her and never hesitate going with her. She even has her own dog grooming business and can pet sit and groom your dog as well. You will not be disappointed with Jess caring for your pets, she loves them all like her own and is very responsible and professional.

Jess has been grooming my dog for a couple years. He is a rescue and is very timid but loves to go see Jess. She is very patient with him. She is dependable and has alot of experience working with dogs. I wholeheartedly recommend her for whatever your pet needs are.

Jess stands out as the biggest, most compassionate animal lover I've ever known. She has a heart for all living creatures and treats them with kindness and respect. She did a wonderful job with our pups! They had a great time with Jess!

I recently had the pleasure of bringing my 3 golden retrievers to Jess for a grooming session, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service we received. She was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also showed genuine care and attention to detail when grooming my fur babies. They came out looking and feeling fantastic, with shiny coats and happy demeanors. I highly recommend Jess to any pet owner looking for top-notch grooming services. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Safety, trust & environment

I can come to your house to watch your pet, that way your animal is in a safe space while you are away. I believe the pet's first introduction to me should be done with you there, to allow your animal to see that I am an acceptable visitor in order to have them feel more at ease around me at the start. During this introduction you can communicate to me your pet's needs, fears, and schedule. If you have grooming needs that you'd like me to fulfill, I would prefer that we either make an appointment for you to bring your animal to my house, as my workspace is already set up and allows for more efficiency for me to work, or your permission to bring your animal to my house for me to use my workspace.

Information Jess P. would like to know about your pet

The things I need to know about your pets are the following: I need to know if they have any special needs, behavioral issues, allergies, and fears. I need this information in order to make sure your baby never feels any large amounts of stress with me.

A typical day

I'm willing to provide a walk around your neighborhood or take your dog to the local dog park to burn off energy. As well as work on basic training or if they aren't challenged enough by basic training I can begin teaching them new tricks for mental stimulation, as well as recommend some good puzzle toys for your pooch.

I currently have an incredibly open schedule, with the only constraint being my grooming appointments, but those are as needed and not a daily/weekly occurrence. I also work at night for a cleaning company 3x a week, but if this clashes with the schedule you need, this can be rearranged.
