Availability
Please be aware I do work full-time as a veterinary assistant. My schedule varies from 6-10 hour shifts and on different days of the week. On my longer shifts, I am able to stop in for a potty break and visit on my lunch hour. If your pet can’t be alone for long periods of time, please let me know in advance! I am always willing to try to make our schedules work together. The more time in advance you request, the better I’m able to work around my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment
I am able to provide safe and trustworthy care to your pets out of your own home. I believe in-home pet sitting is the least stressful way to care for your pets while you’re away. And it’s not just about taking care of your pets, but taking care of your home too! At least one meet and greet is required prior to trips in order to become fully acquainted with your pets. For reactive pets - we can come up with an action plan and several meet ups at no extra charge to you. Please provide several weeks notice when booking to allow plenty of time to make this happen!
Information Jess P. would like to know about your pet
Does your pet take daily medication, or need calming medication for certain situations? Any food/medication allergies to be aware of? Any reactivity (strangers or men, dogs, cats, children, kennel or food aggression)? Does your pet like or dislike car rides?
A typical day
I work 4-5 days a week, anywhere from 6-10 hour days. I can visit pets during my hour as long as location permits. On my time off I like to go for walks, skateboard rides, car rides, and go for a coffee and a pup cup. Or on a rainy day I love to get comfy on the couch and snuggle up with all my furry friends. I prefer to walk on bike trails, on-leash parks, or quiet neighborhoods to ensure everyone’s safety. Please let me know if your pet does not do well in the car, or if you’re uncomfortable with them being in the car. My car is equipped with a backseat hammock and seatbelt restraints to keep pets safe!

Reviews
We love Jess, she is great with all 5 of our dogs and they absolutely love her. We will always book with her and I will rearrange our schedule to make sure she watches our fur babies 😊
I cannot say enough good things about the care Jess provided for our beloved quirky high maintenance felines. She is conscientious, attentive, patient, and a great communicator. Our cat, Maynerd The Brave, is a diabetic and I felt so confident that he was in good hands that I was able to actually relax and enjoy our time away. We came home to a clean smelling house and happy cats. In fact, one of them seems to be looking for her today, missing her. ;) If you see this, thank you Jess!
We love Jess as our house/dog sitter. She is great with all 5 of our fur babies. We will always choose her whenever we want to go on vacation or weekend trips.
Jess is fantastic! She had instant chemistry with my cat and is the most conscientious sitter possible. Highly highly recommend!
