We’ve used Jessica several times, and she’s been fantastic every time. She’s consistently available on short notice, always punctual, and very polite. Even though we’re not home during her visits, our hairless cat, who is extremely selective about people,comes out to see her and happily lets Jessica pet her. That alone says a lot. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Schedule

My day job as a zookeeper is animal husbandry. As a result, my calendar availability for house sitting is only Wednesday evening thru Sunday morning since my job the rest of the week, in addition to my own pets, wouldn't allow me to be available regularly during those days. However, I would still be able to do walkings and drop ins Sun-Weds evenings so feel free to message me to see if we can work something out!

Safety, trust & environment

Depending on your pet's level of comfortability, I am willing to watch them in your home or welcome them into ours. I have an older laid back lab that gets along with all dogs. Our house has a fenced in yard with a doggy door and we have a room in our basement set aside for dogs that includes a wire kennel and several beds.

Pets

A typical day

Let me know what your pet loves to do and I will make it happen. For my personal dogs we love to go on walks, play fetch in the yard, and go swimming at the lake. We really love to walk the trails around battle creek.
