Pet care experience

I grew up around dogs and was raised with the notion that dogs are just as much a part of the family as any of the human counterparts. I helped as much as possible with caring for our family dogs when I was younger and started solely walking and caring for my 6 year old husky, Bentley, when we first got him. Since then, I've continued to care for Bentley and now have helped to care for my boyfriend's three dogs, two Japanese Akitas, a 9 year old, Lakota, and a 1 year old, Jax, and a 10 year old pug, Mugzy, for the past four years. We raised Jax from 10 weeks old and quickly taught him everything about having proper doggie etiquette. Lakota & Mugzy, both being older dogs, are beyond sweet and require a little extra attention on a day to day basis. Lakota is given longer walks and extra play time while Mugzy, who is handicapped, is taken out in a wagon for fresh air as often as possible. I have gained experience with hyperactive and high energy dogs as a result of caring for Bentely and helping care for Jax. The two require a lot of playtime and long walks to ensure they get out their extra energy. I've previously dog sat a few times for some neighbors and other family members. This included having dogs stay at my home and also traveling to other people's homes to spend time with, walk, and feed their dogs throughout the day. I am a very attentive person and place my dog(s)' security above all else while walking my own dogs. I would do the same for any of my client(s)' dogs was I to walk them and would treat your dogs as I would mine while they were in my care.

Jessica was absolutely perfect with Paulie. Kept me constantly updated with pictures and videos. It's a bonus that she drives. Paulie enjoys going to the dog park daily, which is kinda far from home. esides taking great care of her she kept the house exactly how I left it.

Jessica stayed at our house to watch our 2 dogs for a long weekend while we were away. She was extremely caring for the dogs and they loved her. She was also careful to follow all my instructions, she sent me texts and videos of how they were doing, she texted me if she had any questions, and she genuinely enjoyed being with our dogs. She is also a lovely person to deal with! I recommend her very highly.

Information Jessica A. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know about any allergies, behavioral issues, or any favorite toys and treats before sitting a dog. I do not have any breed preferences.

A typical day

Besides just being a means for a dog to take care of its business, a walk is always an opportunity for a dog to get to know a new environment and socialize with other dogs. Therefore, I would always want to take the dog to new areas for each walk and, if allowed, to dog parks so that the dog may socialize with other dogs and be able to get out any extra energy he or she may have. I would also be happy to run with or play fetch with the dog as another outlet for energy, an opportunity for exercise for both parties, and a means of bonding with the dog.
