About Jess W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I appreciate you considering trusting me with your animal. I understand how difficult it is to find pet services you can whole-heartedly trust, but I would love to be that person for your family, in whichever ways you see fit. I always offer a complimentary meet and greet - which almost always allows clients to get to know me and feel 100% more comfortable with the process.
Home
Information Jess W. would like to know about your pet
I'm more than happy to accommodate for special needs and disabilities in your pets. I have plenty of experience with all sorts of medical issues, behavioural problems and specialized care. I just ask that I know about these things in advance so I can best prepare to be the person your pet needs to feel the most comfortable!
A typical day
I love spending time with pups outside and exploring new places. Anything with hikes and lots of sniffs for the dog is a win in my books! Additionally, with dogs I prioritize a very structured indoor environment. Practicing calm behaviour in the house and lots of time to settle is a regular part of the day with me. With kitty friends, I enjoy patiently watching them come out of their shell and learn I am a safe person.

Pet care experience
Recent grad from the Animal Biology program at the university of Guelph. Recently trained a service dog for an organization. Due to this history, I tend to maintain a structured environment with pets I take care of, we typically spend our time going on adventures, training and also prioritizing settling and practicing the art of doing nothing. These days, I have rescue foster dogs in and out of the house. I am very familiar with a variety of behavioural issues including reactivity, resource guarding, anxiety and more. I have three cats which I love so much. I’m super passionate about feline behaviour and pet nutrition. Some of you may know me from the grooming business I founded, Pampered Paws Pet Grooming. At Pampered Paws we strive to provide a stress-free experience for dogs, cats, and small animals. I currently work am the Vet Assistant at Park Avenue Vets, a local holistic vet clinic. I additionally worked at the OVC in the surgery department and have plenty of vet experience.

Reviews

Our dog realized that we were leaving on a trip and didn’t want to get into the car. But when we got to Jess’s place, our dog ran to the front door (second time with Jess ) 🥹
Jess W. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.

Jess took care of our dog Bliss. And she was well taken care of.

We’ve left Jess with Banff a couple of times and he always enjoys his stay. He has loads of fun! Our boy is always happy because of how caring Jess is with him. We appreciate her attentiveness and how trustworthy she is. Thank you Jess for always caring for our Banff. We appreciate you!
