Last minute requests are okay!

Pet care experience

I can usually take last minute requests, so feel free to ask. I have worked full time in a vet hospital as a nurse assistant. I am very familiar with the basics and more of pet care (cat, dog and small animals/reptiles). I love what I do and filling my free time with caring for pets, lights up my world. My variety of experiences with animals (outside my vet hospital position) include: working for Rover 7+ years; working for pet super market; volunteering at Carolina Tiger Rescue. I have an adorable goofy 87lb, lover of a chocolate lab pittie mix. I have owned a Maine Coon and an orange tabby cat and have pet sit for many more cats. I currently have a Haitian Tree Boa and am more than comfortable caring for reptiles also. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pet!

Jessica did an extraordinary job of taking care of my cat! She spent a lot of extra time sitting with him and playing with him while I was away. She also leaves incredibly informative Rover cards and pays attention to every detailed instruction. I will absolutely ask Jessica to care for my cat the next time I am out of town!

Jessica went above and beyond. I am so thankful she accepted my last minute request. My cat was in excellent hands and it allowed me to really enjoy being out of town.

Jessica was great! She was prompt and responsive to messages. She took great care of my pets and sent lots of updates. She clearly loves animals.

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience walking dogs of all sizes and strengths, in many environments, so you can trust me to be able to work well with your dog. I am able to anticipate risks, and avoid populated times and areas if requested/suggested. I also have experience dealing with cats of many temperaments. I am comfortable with whatever level of attention and care (medical, physical, emotional) that your cat may need.

Information Jessica D. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know your pets favorite treats, toys, and places to go/hide. I appreciate details aside from basics of care including: allergies, temperament, and an emergency contact and vet number in case.

A typical day

I enjoy trail walks when available. We can walk or run at your pets speed and we can play with toys too. I like to cuddle and play with cats... we can use teasers, balls, or lasers. If your cat prefers more “hands off” and just “being there”, I can offer that.

I am currently working as a bartender and server in a local restaurant, so I am not usually very far from town. I am always available to ask about last minute requests, especially in the case of an emergency.
