Availability

I work in-office Monday through Wednesday and Friday from 8-11:30 and 1:30 - 5. When I am pet-sitting I am out-of-office for 2 hours midday so I can take care of potty breaks and lunches and then work from "home" for an hour so your pets do not feel lonely. When pet-sitting, I treat your home as my home-base and am not gone longer than 4 hours at any time.

Let me know what your pets care needs are and I'll follow your guidance and do my best to make your pet feel safe and comfortable.

Information Jessa B. would like to know about your pet

I require a free meet-and-greet before any service with a dog or any pet with anxiety or a medication schedule, so they can become comfortable with me and we can go over your care needs. I will want to know things like your pets routine, location of their items (food, leash, meds, etc), their triggers and boundaries, vet and emergency contact info. For housesitting, a written guide for sitters is always very helpful.

A typical day

I'm adaptable to your home's routine and your pets needs. Please let me know what they are used to. I have calm, open and friendly energy with pets.

Cat & Dog Whisperer

Pet care experience

Hello, fellow pet lovers! Though I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent a lifetime caring for all kinds of animals; I grew up as the eldest sister on a family farm, so animal-care has been a huge part of my daily life since before I can remember. As a result, I'm very happy to care for larger crews and am comfortable and confident with big dogs. I have a patient and gentle approach that helps pets feel comfortable and loved, whether they’re energetic pups, shy rescues, snuggly “velcro” pets or seniors with special routines or medical needs. I specialize in connecting with anxious dogs and cats. I'm also very active and love a workout, so if your dog is a jogger, a hiker or enjoys long walks, I'm your gal! My household is shared with three cherished senior cats—Oobah, Anya and Ducky—which means I don’t offer in-home boarding, but welcome all kinds of sitting and care at your place. Losing my sweet soul-dog Maeby after 14 wonderful years makes every dog walk and cuddle a true delight. I’m an experienced foster for Against All Odds, with a knack for creating a safe, happy environment for every personality. Open to special requests, comfortable with senior or special-needs pets, and always ready for questions so pet parents feel at ease.

Jessa was amazing with my three dogs. She took great care of them and followed my instructions well. She was even flexible with a last-minute schedule change. My babies loved her! I will definitely book with her again.

Jessa was responsive, responsible, and updated me regularly. She was proactive about understanding my dog's quirks, and was respectful of my home. I'd trust her to house + dog-sit any time.

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.
