Dog lover ❤ walking and loving care

My love for dogs started at an early age. I started working for a doggy daycare, boarding kennel, and grooming facility while i was in highschool. My job was to clean kennels and walk and feed the dogs being boarded. I also played in the doggy daycare room while i wasnt busy in the kennel. I recently lost my childhood golden retriever to old age. She was the sweetest girl in the world! I have assisted my mother in service dog training since a young age. I love all dogs big or small! I enjoy walking and playing with young puppys and helping and assisting older and hurting dogs to do what they need and get where they want to go. I cant wait to meet you and your pet!

I have used Jessica as a sitter for Chloe when I travel and a few special occasions, but this time was different! I was seen in a local ED and admitted with two large kidney stones. Chloe at home and I didn’t know when I would be back. I contacted Jessica to pick Chloe up and for two days of boarding. She said I could extend the booking one day at a time time as needed. That’s amazing flexibility. In addition she contacted me a couple of times to find out how I was doing. I ended up staying in the hospital for 5 days and knowing that I didn’t have to worry about Chloe was a real blessing. I will always remember Jessica’s kindness. Thank you, Jessica

The communication before booking were fast responses. After booking we had to initiate daily in order to know how our dog was doing. Either we would get a response hours later, the following day after asking again, or none at all. This was an 8 day stay so, updates w/pictures were requested but we only received 3. The pet sitter was not there on arrival on time and did not bother to show up during pick up time. No explanation or follow-up was provided! A male adult&child was at the home to hand over our dog and said "he did good." We had to wait for someone to get home although we sent a message in advance we were on the way & followed designated arrival time from booking. The male rinsed out the bowls and placed everything we dropped off in the bag. 4days worth of dog food scoops were returned. Which means my dog did not eat it. Which is odd because via short text messages we were told he was always "doing good." I cannot guarantee my dog was cared for 100% by Jessica or at all. Overall, we were not pleased and would not rebook with this sitter.

Jessica really helps me out. Not only does she cover my travels, but she does home visits when I have a long day as an election officer. Highly recommended.
