Pet care experience
A home away from home for your best friend 🐶
Hello! My name's Jess, and I've been around animals all my life - I grew up with a little Pomeranian, birds, mice, and even frogs. My extended family owned a dog & cat boarding kennel and my first job was with animals too. Nowadays, I work from home full time, with my extremely silly and lazy and sweet 5 year old Shar Pei x Dachshund mix, Ripley. I am a *huge* dog lover and frequently dog sit overnight (and longer) for family & friends - from miniature Dachshunds to Border Collies to Newfoundlands. I have a fully fenced garden, and live close to Hillside Gardens, Tooting Common, and Brockwell Park. I am comfortable & experienced giving medications, and dealing with fussy eaters. Ripley & I can't wait to meet your pup!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Jess was amazing with our dog Corbin. He stayed for just over a week and he had the most amazing time. She provided us with regular photos of them at the park and playing with other dogs. I am sure Corbin was sad when we picked him up as he wanted to stay lols. I cannot recommend Jess enough, she is the best dog sitter in London! Hands down! Cannot recommend her highly enough 👍
Jessica was fantastic with my nervous spaniel Milo - she invited to meet her before his stay so he could get used to her and her gorgeous dog! She sent me regular updates and you could tell she really cared about the dogs she looks after. Would hesitate to book again, thank you so much!
I feel so lucky to have found Jess! From the minute Oscar and I met her she was so welcoming, friendly and reassuring. Oscar can be a little nervous in new environments but Jess has done everything to help make him feel settled, and now her place is a home away from home for him. He now cries at her door to be let in! I feel so relieved knowing that he is in such good hands whilst I work. Thank you so much Jess and Ripley!
Amazing care for our little dog Banjo as always!
Herbie had an amazing time with Jess and Ripley! We received lots of photos and videos of Herbie having a great time playing in parks and at Jess’ home, which was lovely to get! He has come back exhausted, which is great! We’d definitely look to leave Herbie with Jess again 😊
Bailey always LOVES staying with Jessica and we love it when he's there too. He always has the best time, he's so well looked after and we're always updated on his adventures with her dog Ripley. He's stayed with Jessica multiple times now and she's very much our trusted choice whenever we're going away. Would highly recommend.

Schedule
I work from home full time, so I'm very lucky to be able to work around whatever Ripley (and other dog-guests) might be feeling! Daily walking schedule is very flexible - whatever your dog is used to, we can match it :) Likewise with your feeding schedule!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live on the ground floor and have a secure, private fenced garden. Ripley loves other dogs, and will be very excited to welcome a new friend into her space!
Pets
A typical day
We will go for walks, play find-the-treat around the house, enjoy lots of belly rubs, and nap on the couch after some fetch at the park. If your dog is up for it, Ripley loves wrestling and being chased by other dogs!
