Pet care experience
Hello! I’m Jess. I grew up in Charlotte and currently live in Ballantyne. Growing up, I had a chocolate Labrador retriever and pet-sit all sorts of animals until the time I left for college. In 2017, I adopted my current dog, Pablo, who is my everything! He is a 6-year-old terrier mix. My husband and I do not have children, so dogs have 100% of our attention. As a dog owner, and Rover user, I know how hard it can be to leave your pup when you go out of town. That’s why I joined Rover as a sitter! I’m here to care for your dog just like you would :) **Please note that we require a Meet and Greet before accepting new bookings to make sure our dogs get along**
Reviews
Jessica is extremely communicative and sends lots of pics and updates. She gets two walks in a day and Louie always comes home happy! This past stay, Louie needed some extra care including a trip to the groomer and a pick up at our vet, and Jessica was happy to help us do those things while we were away. We will definitely continue booking with her!
I always feel at ease when I leave my little buddy with Jessica. She's an excellent communicator and always sends the best pictures/updates. I know Alex is happy there and gets tons of love and snuggles. I would recommend her, Dan, and Pablo to anyone. 🙂
Jessica is the best rover host I’ve ever had! I left Nikki with her over the weekend, and Jessica followed her schedules with several photo/videos a day - Nikki was having a blast! Nikki is very high energy and Jessica took her on walks and gave her plenty of play time. Very smooth and easy communication. I had a very great experience and would definitely love to book again!
THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER!!!!! I can’t thank Jess enough for being so wonderful to my dog Evie! Jess was so kind and receptive from the moment I met her. She went out of her way to make sure Evie felt right at home when she went to her house. For the 3 days I was away, I received regular photos and videos on how she was enjoying her day. To be honest, my dog was having such a great time, I almost felt bad picking her up lol. It was like a constant happy puppy weekend for her! It is priceless to have a wonderful person watch over your pet when you are away! Thank you Jess so much! ❤️🐶❤️🐶

In our house, your pup will be loved like our own. Plenty of walks, pets, and snuggles! If you have any particular rules you need me to stick to, please let me know ahead of time and we will follow them.
Home
Information Jessica B. would like to know about your pet
Let me know of any medications your dog takes ahead of time. I also like to be aware of any unique behaviors they have (ex: does not like kids, is a table surfer, scared of thunder, skittish around big dogs, will chase rabbits, etc.). I appreciate it when owners write out a detailed description of their pet's schedule so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible while they are here!
A typical day
We take walks twice a day (morning and evening) with multiple potty breaks mixed in and plenty of time spent in the sunshine on our back deck. We do not have a fenced-in backyard, but our deck has a gate that allows us to hang out outside in the sun off-leash. Our terrier is a great companion for the dogs that we host. He is very low-key. We typically only take dogs under 50lbs because he gets along best with dogs his size or smaller.
Services
Jessica can host
Availability
Monday - Friday I work from home full-time for an animal welfare nonprofit called Best Friends Animal Society. My schedule is super flexible, but I do spend a lot of time on the phone and in Zoom meetings. Because of this, I cannot host dogs that are "extreme" barkers. My husband also works from home full time, so your pup will never be alone during the week.
