Dogs aren’t just my job… they’re my lifestyle. As a devoted dog mom & sitter, I plan my outside life around the pups, because majority of my days are spent at The Castle (MY HOME) creating a safe, loving, and structured environment for all paws.

Information Jesseeka & John G. would like to know about your pet
To help create the safest and most comfortable visit please review the questions below: Temperament & Behavior Does your dog show any food or toy aggression? This is something I can often work with as long as i know ahead of time. However, for the safety of all Kings & Queens, im unable to accept dogs that show aggression toward other dogs or humans. Health & Safety Does your pup have any allergies or medical conditions? Is your dog currently taking any medications? Home Routine & Sleeping Habits Where does your dog typically sleep at home? Are they crated? At The Castle, dogs are only crated for safety reasons or if requested by the owner. We also use gates/playpens to create smaller, calm groups when needed.
A typical day
Your dogs day will be full of structure, enrichment, and plenty of love. Mornings begin with snuggles and potty breaks, followed by supervised play, mental stimulation, and relaxing rest time throughout the day. Each pup is cared for based on their personality and energy level, enjoying social play, one-on-one affection, walks, and gentle training reinforcement — all in a safe, calm environment.

Reviews

She did wonderful with my kitty for 4 days I highly recommend


If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! My dual cat sitting was a last minute emergency and I was super stressed. Jesseeka was phenomenal! She was very friendly, open and reassuring. She took excellent care of both cats (6 and 12 yo males). My worries were needless as Jesseeka sent several photos of my cats enjoying themselves! A rarity for the 6yo who is immensely shy. This was my first experience with a pet sitter and I am extremely happy with the services Jesseeka provided! I will definitely utilize Jesseeka for my cats and my new senior dog when the need arises. I highly recommend Jesseeka for any and all pet sitting needs you may have.


Jesseeka was fantastic! Went overseas for two weeks which is the longest I've ever been away from the pups. Pictures virtually every day and I could see they were being cared for and settled in nicely. Will be using Jesseeka again in the future and I highly recommend her!

Echo had a great stay at Jesseeka’s place. She had a nice compound for the dogs to socialize outside and always send us so many pics which we love. I’d highly recommend her.
