Availability

I currently work and go to school part-time, so I have a flexible schedule to work with you and your furry friends when y’all need me! I am happy to stay overnight with your pet using the “house sitting” option to provide more attentive care. Otherwise, I will leave at night for up to 8 hours overnight and return to care for your pet in the morning. Additionally, I will need to leave for at least 1-2 short (3hr or less) breaks to care for my own pets during the day. If you would like me to stay overnight with your pet an additional $40/day will be added upon booking. Please let me know your specific expectations when you request to book so we can make sure that I can meet your needs!

Safety, trust & environment

Due to the needs of my resident pets I am unable to care for other animals in my home at this time. However, I am comfortable greeting pets in their environments and would love to work with you to ensure *you’re* comfortable with me in your home. We can set up a FaceTime call, you can ask me to indicate to your home security cameras, whatever eases your perfectly reasonable stranger danger instincts-no offense taken!

Information Jessica G. would like to know about your pet

I believe that communication is key, let me know exactly you expect of me so we can make sure I can meet your fuzzy friends expectations while you’re away or if they will be in better hands with another sitter! I will be upfront with you about what I can/can not provide so you can rest assured you pick the right caregiver for your loved one (even if it’s not me). :)

A typical day

A self proclaimed pro at working around a snuggled up pet, I can make sure your furry friend doesn’t get lonely while you’re out of town! Due to the nature of this app and not being familiar with your pet and their quirks, I am not comfortable letting any animals off leash outside of their/your secured property. Of course, a walk around the block or trip to the park is always fun even if they’re safely secured to a leash the whole time! However, please message me to discuss further if you have a dog that has higher energy needs than can be met on a leashed walk to make sure we will be a good fit before booking.

Pet care experience

As a dedicated pet sitter, I am comfortable caring for most all furry friends and specialize in providing compassionate care for senior pets and cats with advanced medical needs. With years of experience, I understand the unique requirements of older animals and those needing specialized medical attention. Whether it's administering medications, monitoring health conditions closely, or simply providing gentle companionship, I ensure your pets receive the highest level of care and comfort. You can rest assured that your beloved companions are in capable and caring hands while you're away!

I really trust and like Jessica for watching over our kitties and home. She has watched over them numerous times and helped us out last minute when we really needed it. Our kitties are always content when we get home after their time with her

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.
