Wild and domestic animal lover

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Jess. I love all animals. I have worked professionally as a wildlife biologist for the past 2 years, part-time pet sitter for 4 years, and have cared for wild animals in New Jersey and across the globe. I grew up in Monmouth County, NJ and recently moved back to the state from Wyoming. My job as an environmental educator allows me to be with wild animals outside everyday while teaching the public about their habitats. At home, I have an adorable gray kitty named Howie 😻 However, I wish I could have more pets! I have so much love to give your pet as if they were my own. I can care for basically any type of animal that you may own. In the past, I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, turtles, amphibians, and insects and I'm open to caring for others. I am very active outdoors and love to go on long hikes. I hope that you'll consider hiring me as your go-to pet sitter! Yours truly, Jessica

Jess is one of a kind. We love her ❤️🐶 She is super conscientious and blows our expectations out of the water, each time. I would pay someone to keep our schedules aligned each week!!!

Jess was amazing with Ranger and he took to her immediately! She was so sweet and caring, made sure Ranger was comfy and was very attentive to his needs. She was so easy to communicate with and responsive whenever we texted to check in. I would recommend her to anyone and she will be my permanent sitter for as long as she wants. :)

Jessica did a great job with our furbabies! She left us a note filled with details about her stayovers. Our pets were happy and relaxed when we returned home. She sent us pics to keep us updated! Very happy & would recommend Jessica. ?

I do not offer pet care in my home. However, I can adapt to your methods of caring for your pet in your home just the way you would on a daily basis! I am happy to provide a meet-and-greet to go over all the details of your pets routine.

Information Jessica D. would like to know about your pet

Are they house trained? Do they have a signal for when they need to go outside to go to the bathroom? Are they scared of anything or will try to chase anything? Do they have a specific diet? How long of a walk do they prefer? I do not have any breed preferences, I will care for any and all dog types.

A typical day

Whether it's a walk in the neighborhood or a trip to the local park for a long hike, I am prepared to meet the activity level of your pet!
