Pets are family

I am a natural born lover of all animals. I am the one that all my friends and family call whenever they have a pet related question or need pet advice. My pets are my family and they are treated with love and respect at all times. I believe it very stressful for a pet to be without their family and they need extra love and care to make up for the time apart from their family. I would not take in a pet without meeting them and/or first speaking to their human caretakers. Every pet has unique needs and I would only take on a pet that I could properly care for their specific needs. I own a house with a fenced in yard. I have two medium size dogs that are 12 and 14 years old. They are always the center of my attention and their needs come first. They get a lot of hugs and kissing all the time. My house is their house and they are free to treat it as such. I treat all dogs that are in my home (as if they are my own dogs.) They will get lots of hugs and kisses too, unless they prefer not to. You must be able to read a dog and make sure that you so not do anything that makes them feel uncomfortable. I already have two dogs that are my life, so it is easy for me to care for other dogs. My schedule is very fexiable. I own my home and have a fenced in yard. However, I never leave dogs outside alone for more than a few minutes. I stay outside with them so I can see what they are doing and so I can protect my garden from getting destroyed. When dogs are visiting my home they are always free to roam on the first floor and will not be crated unless requested.

Our dog loves going to stay at Jess’s house. She gives so much tlc, and we know he is in great care whenever he is with her. Extra bonus, she takes the best pictures of him!

We can't say enough good things about Jess. Our cat doesn't warm to almost anyone, but Jess was able to make friends with him immediately and sent pictures of him every day, allowing us to be sure he was doing well while we were away. It was like they had been friends forever! Jess is the best!

Jess is a wonderful sitter and is incredibly thoughtful. She sent the best photos and always kept me up to date. We’re lucky to have found her, plus she’s very clean!

No one better to trust your fur-baby to. You can tell she’s an animal lover with how she speaks and interact with you and your pet. We are truly lucky to have found someone like her to entrust our Rocky when we have to go away.

Pets

A typical day

Every dog is different, I create their activities based on the information that I am given by the pet parent. Example: my dogs never liked dog parks, so I stopped taking them. I had one dog who loved to run next to me while I roller bladed. But my other dog would only run in zigzags, which meant NO roller blading with him. So each dog would have to have their personal needs and preferences explored before we decided what activities are the best fit.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Non-neutered males accepted, spayed females only
No females in heat
Jess can host up to 2 pets per night
I want to know every thing! I leave my pet sitters with a small book about my pets before I go away and I am happy to read your small book too! I also have created a questionnaire to help me get all the information that I may need and you may forget to tell me.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
