Pet care experience
I’ve been taking care of animals since I was old enough to fill a water bowl! Growing up, my mom was always rescuing animals, so I had the privilege of learning how to care for pets of all kinds. Whether it was helping with medications, being gentle with nervous rescues, or lending a hand in training, I developed a lifelong love for animals—and a knack for making them feel safe, loved, and happy. These days, I’m the go-to pet sitter for my family’s pack of five dogs, and I also care for my neighbors’ Mastiff, Golden Retriever, and their four playful cats, including a majestic Maine Coon. Sometimes, I watch their pets for longer, extended periods while they’re traveling. The dogs love hanging out at my house, where they can play in the big backyard or lounge on the couch with my toddler. The cats prefer to stay home, and I always enjoy visiting them, playing, and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well-fed.

Jessica A. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
I am so grateful to Jessica and her flexibility in care for my cat. I recently needed to modify a schedule and she made that happen.
Jessica was super helpful and gracious with our peaches. I hired her for a couple of hours to go to a graduation party. It worked out perfectly.

Safety, trust & environment
When pets are in my care, I focus on creating a comfortable, safe, and enriching environment that fits their needs. In my home: For dogs, I make sure they get plenty of playtime in our big backyard, whether it’s a game of fetch, running around, or simply enjoying some outdoor time. If your dog prefers indoor relaxation, they’re welcome to hang out with my toddler on the couch or snuggle up. I can also take them for individual walks to give them some fresh air and exercise. For cats, I provide cozy spots, cat condos, and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. I love using catnip or interactive toys to engage them, and I make sure they have a quiet, comfortable space to relax in if they need some downtime. In your home: If your pet is more comfortable in their own space, I’ll follow your pet’s routine and provide the care they’re used to—whether that’s feeding, administering medication, or simply hanging out with them for company. I’ll take extra care to keep them in a familiar environment so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. Whether it's in my home or yours, I always tailor my care to fit each pet’s personality and needs, ensuring they’re happy, healthy, and loved during their time with me! For cats, we have fun with cat condos, toys, and catnip to keep them entertained and relaxed. I make sure they have quiet spaces, plenty of enrichment, and, of course, lots of treats and affection (if they’re in the mood!). Whether your pets are romping in the yard, relaxing on the couch, or hanging out with my toddler, I do my best to create a warm, safe, and happy environment.

Information Jessica A. would like to know about your pet
Since I have a two-year-old and a cat at home, it's important to know how your pet interacts with children and other animals. If your dog isn’t comfortable around toddlers, unfortunately, they won’t be a good fit for doggy daycare at my place. However, I’m more than happy to watch your dog in the comfort of their own home while you're away, ensuring they stay in a familiar environment and feel safe and secure. For all pets, I love to know any special routines or preferences they have, whether it’s favorite toys, food habits, or how they like to relax. The more I know about your pet’s needs, the better I can provide them with a comfortable and comfortable experience while you're gone!
A typical day
I love making sure your pets have a blast while they’re in my care! For dogs, we enjoy plenty of outdoor fun in the big yard, like playing fetch, tug-of-war, or just letting them run and burn off some energy. I can also take them on walks, giving them some fresh air and exercise while we explore the neighborhood or local trails. For cats, I like to keep things exciting with interactive toys, catnip, and cozy spots for them to lounge. I’ll set up cat condos or engage in some playful sessions with them to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. No matter the pet, my goal is to ensure they’re not only safe and comfortable but also having a fun, enriching experience while in my care!

As a full-time stay-at-home mom, my daily routine is all about balancing the needs of my toddler, my cat, and the pets I care for. I’ve always made sure that pet care is an integral part of my day—whether it’s taking the dogs for a walk, playing fetch in the yard, or simply snuggling with them during quieter moments at home. Having pets is something I truly enjoy, and I’ve found a natural flow in caring for them while managing my responsibilities at home. My toddler loves spending time with the pets, so there’s always a little playtime or pet cuddles built into our day. For dogs, walks and playtime in the yard are easy to incorporate into our routine, and I make sure that I have time set aside for them, as well as for feeding and any other specific care needs. With my cat, I’ve got feeding and playtime down to a routine that works for us all. This flexibility allows me to provide great care for your pets while maintaining a balance with my family life!
