Dogs and cats welcome! I love all!

Pet care experience

I’m Jessica! Sitter and caregiver to your pets! I also do short term fostering and am a cat kennel assistant volunteer at the Greater Birmingham Humane Society. My husband and I have two dogs, Maki (Brindle Belgian Malinois mix) & Turbo (American Staffordshire Terrier/Black Lab mix) who are sweet, goofy, smart babies. Totally spoiled! Many of the pet pics are with my husband, Joe, bc I never get good ones of myself apparently ha. Not only did I grow up in a pet loving family that allowed me to get to know and love many different breeds and types of fur babies, but I have been trusted to pet sit by friends, neighbors, and relatives many many times over the years. Several of the photos up are of foster pups and of some I’ve rescued. Some of my skills include potty training, social training, aggression correction with puppies, recognizing early illness symptoms and care. I’m trained to watch, recommend and act when medical treatment is needed. I also have experience administering oral, topical, and injectable medications with dogs and cats. I live in a neighborhood perfect for walking your pup. I also enjoy hiking the trails at ruffner mountain. I offer cuddles and companionship for the pup or kitty that prefers laps and affection over walks or hikes. I don’t mind sitting at my home or yours.

This sitter was fantastic! She and her husband were very engaged. I received videos and pictures very often. Amazing experience. I will definitely use this sitter again.

Jessica was amazing. You can tell she has a true heart for animals and was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what questions so ask and how to best care for our lab while we were away. We felt very safe and comfortable with attention to details.

Safety, trust & environment

Respect to pets in their home is always given on my part. It’s your pets home and they should always feel safe! I will listen to the guidelines you give me and do my absolute best to be a trusted safe space person to your pet. I’ll spend as much time as your pet needs! I have a fenced back yard and two friendly pups that love to play. I also have indoor crates for mine and guests to be safely separated.

Information Jessica Denise W. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to sit for Doggos of all sizes and breeds. I would like to know about your dogs temperament. His or her favorites activities and their dislikes. I have a spare bedroom for pets that prefer quiet, but I do strongly prefer all pets to be crated (including my own) when unattended. If your pet doesn't do well crated I may be able to make accommodations depending on schedule and pet needs. I’ve had some stay that are bed sleepers and I’m not opposed letting fur babies sleep in my bed. *Any medical issues, handicap, special needs are welcome. *if your pet has behavioral reactions or trust concerns with caregivers. I know this can happen and they deserve the best care too.

A typical day

Basically, I have the dream job of being a stay at home dog mom while sitting and walking for others as well! Routine defers when coming to your home depending on your needs and activity level your pet enjoys. I like to keep things comfortable for your pet and the routine they are used to if possible. We can schedule around best times for feeding, walking, meds, playtime. I don’t mind cleaning pet areas, bringing in mail/packages, putting out garbage if needed! For a day at my home: After first thing morning potty break in our fenced backyard we have 7am/7pm feeding schedule and back to play in the yard if weather permits. I always stay alert about the weather/temperature and adjust yard time accordingly. My pups have to be lured in sometimes with treats or pup cups bc they love outside even when it’s too hot. We have indoor and outdoor toys (mine love balls and plushies) a couple of puzzle games, and we watch dog tv while I get chores done. I’ve had some small guests that like to be carried around 💕 and I love that too. I crate all pets if unattended, but my goal is only if I leave the house or at bedtime. I never leave pet’s unattended together just to be safe. I like to find a good time in the morning and evening for a leash walk around the neighborhood or trip to Crestwood park. It’s a beautiful area and very dog friendly with safe sidewalks. I like to teach tricks or work on commands being learned for those that seem interested!
