Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I spend dedicated time each day caring for my cat through play, conversation, feeding, and enrichment, ensuring she feels safe, loved, and secure. I build consistency into my schedule, which allows me to provide calm, attentive, and reliable care. This routine helps me stay patient, observant, and fully present, and I bring that same level of care and companionship to every pet I walk or sit throughout the week.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, I prioritize safety, comfort, and maintaining each pet’s routine. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions closely, while providing attentive playtime, gentle communication, and calm companionship. I respect every pet’s personality and space, creating a trusting environment where they feel secure and at ease. Whether I’m walking dogs, engaging cats in play, or offering quiet companionship, I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and their parent’s preferences. I also provide regular updates and photos so pet parents feel confident and connected while they’re away.

Information Jessica F. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for a pet, I like to gather as much information as possible to ensure their comfort, safety, and happiness. I use a detailed checklist to ask about their specific needs, routines, habits, and any nuances in behavior or preferences. This helps me provide personalized care, follow feeding or medication instructions accurately, and create a calm, trusting environment. Knowing these details ahead of time allows me to tailor every visit so pets feel secure, happy, and well cared for.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch begins with greeting them warmly and checking in on their needs: food, water, litter boxes, or a potty break. I follow their routine closely, providing meals or medications as needed, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I include plenty of fun and enrichment, tailored to each pet’s personality: for dogs, this might be walks, playtime with toys, and outdoor exploration; for cats, interactive play, gentle petting, or quiet companionship in cozy spots. I also spend time observing their behavior and mood to make sure they’re happy, healthy, and engaged throughout the day. And of course, I keep pet parents updated with notes and photos so they can feel connected while they’re away.

Jessica was an amazing cat sitter for my two kitties! When we first met, she diligently took notes on everything she would need to know for their care. While I was gone, Jessica sent excellent pictures of my cats and I felt comfortable and confident that they were in great hands. I definitely recommend her and will be booking her again! :)

Jessica was so great with our puppy! She was on time and was very communicative. She left great messages and photos after each walk and I felt very safe having her in my home and with my dog every day!

Jessica was an incredible dog walker! I felt immediately comfortable allowing her into our home to walk Koda - she was very communicative and prioritized comfort for our little man, especially with the heat! Thank you so much Jessica for your attention to little Koda! I highly recommend Jessica for any pet needs and care she was fantastic
