Pet care experience

Let’s hike (& cuddle & eat treats!)

I recently lost my beloved golden retriever to cancer and I am missing my hiking buddy! I’ve been an animal lover for my entire life, and having pets myself I know how much anxiety you have leaving them with strangers! I can assure your pet will be well loved, well cared for, tired and cuddled (if they are up for that). I also have experience training dogs, and have pet sat for dogs with separation anxiety, aggressive behavior and other issues.

Jess was amazing! My boy felt so comfortable with her and I got tons of photos and updates. I will be using Jess again.

Jess was great to work with. She was responsive and great with my 3 cats. They are all very shy, but she was patient with them and they came out and played with her after only a day or two. She definitely has a way with cats!

Jess was great with my dog; gave him lots of love and attention, and exercise. I will be happy to use her services again in the future!

Jessica's warmth and passion for animals shine through in every interaction. She treats our dog as if they were her own, providing not only the basics of feeding and exercise but also an abundance of love and attention. Our dog always returns from their walks with Jessica happy, tired, and with that unmistakable wagging tail.

Jess is incredible with animals. She has owned all types of pets since I've known her (dogs, cats, ducks, etc). After seeing how beautifully trained her own dogs are, Jess was a wonderful resource when I got my puppy, providing training suggestions and providing guidance. She cares deeply for the animals in her life, including those of her friends and neighbors. Your animal will be cared for and loved well in Jess' hands!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I’m not currently working, so I have tons of availability! My house is very close to trails, and I spend most days outside off-leash hiking my rescue Leelah. However, she’s getting up there in age and is not able to hike as long, hence I’m looking for some new fur friends to keep me company!
