Currently working from home two days a week, I’d love to have a furry co-worker join me! My work is primarily centered around hosting meetings, and I’m probably the only person on camera without a pet!

Information Jessica D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has special needs or preferences. I’d love to make their experience as stress-free as possible. I welcome same day bookings, but please allow some time before drop off to give me a rundown of their schedule/needs.

A typical day

In my home, we get an early start, usually around 6:30/7 am. If your dog is not an early riser, they well be safely boarded until they are ready to mix and mingle! Our backyard is fenced by a tall fence. There is no way to escape. There is also a big field we can go to if weather permits that is also fenced.

Pet care experience

Dogs have been in our lives since childhood, and as pup parents ourselves, we understand how hard it can be to find a trusting person to leave your pup with in your times of need. As previous owners of an energetic dog [Cesar], and a foster dog [Argo], we are prepared for the active lifestyle required to care for some dogs. Similarly, we have experience with more relaxed dogs that just enjoy being pet and pampered. We currently serve as pet sitters for our friends who need dog sitting from time to time. I am open to communicating with you as much or as little as you'd like while your pet is with us. Don't worry, I'm that Dog Mom that Facetime's her pup so there's no shame!

Jessica was wonderfully communicative before and at the end of Amel’s stay. I appreciate her flexibility and Amel was happily worn out from playing with her children.

Jessica took excellent care our dog while we were away. We definitely plan on calling on Jessica in the future and We are highly recommending her as a right person to watch dog.

I used Jessica last minute to watch my dog when prior plans fell through. She communicated with me often and I returned to a happy pet!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
