Lover of all animals!
Pet care experience
I had two big dogs growing up, and two cats. I’ve typically had pets since, and currently have two cats. I’m my friends go-to pet sitter, dog walker, and animal companion! I am used to pets who may be a little nervous or anxious and require a little extra care and consideration.
Reviews
Jessica was a warm and loving dog sitter. She sent daily updates/pictures and was extremely professional but most of all I could tell how much she genuinely cared for my dog, Katie. I will definitely use Jessica again for any dog sitting needs.
Jessica has been watching my two cats, off and on, for almost two years. She’s reliable, she’s friendly, and very good with pets. One of my cats is not the friendliest of pets, and can really be a handful for some people, but Jessica is a real trooper and has managed to “tame the savage beast”. She also signed for an electronic drum set I was having delivered, and brought in all of the gigantic boxes. Thanks Jess 😂
I absolutely recommend Jess as a caring, loving, and responsible caregiver for all types of pets! She’s been a huge help to my family and friends since 2022. Anytime we travel, we know we can call Jess to take care of our cat, Jet. Not only does she arrive on time, and adhere to his feeding and play schedule, she also sends videos of their time together. Once she even gifted us an extra toy because she saw how much Jet enjoyed it. 100% recommend Jess for any of your pet care! 💕
Jessica watched our cats for 10 days while we were on vacation. Being a bad owner herself, I knew they would be in the best of loving hands. We were able to communicate with her day today to check in. She was always very responsive. Upon our return we found our home just as we left it. Our cat, Logan and Neena were thri to see us, but we felt they were happy little campers in our absence. Thank you Jessica for doing such a wonderful job for us!
About Jessica D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I cannot host dogs or cats in my home unless they are extremely cat friendly, as previous attempts with untrained/reactive dogs have cause my cats to be stressed. However, I am a great pet sitter for others in their home! I value pet safety and comfort over anything. I am used to sitting for long periods of time with nervous pets who might need adjusting as well. I don’t believe in forcing pets to try and like me if they are shy or avoidant - I will still love and care for them as best as I can, even if they are more reserved.
Home
Information Jessica D. would like to know about your pet
I am not familiar with special needs pets, nor with senior care. While I did care for my dogs in their elderly years, each dog is so unique in their journey and I’d still feel most comfortable with detailed instructions.
A typical day
I’m a big walker. I love to take really long walks. I’m happy to stay around the local neighborhood, but if permissible, I like to walk around more scenic areas that are dog friendly. I play with my cats three times a day for about ten to thirty minutes a day depending on their energy levels, and I love bringing toys for the cats I sit so that I can play and give them some activity too. I also love that good purring energy that cats give, so I don’t mind sitting down and reading a book while giving a cat some essential cuddle time.

I’m in school full time, and some of my classes are online. Currently using this for supplemental income. I can typically work my schedule around in case of last minute needs, but school is my top priority.
