Pet care to me is a part of my every morning, day and evening life. I have a cat of my own who is a spoiled perfect angel and I always make sure she is well cared for and content when I can. Additionally, I’m more flexible than most as I work part time and am in law school so I can check in during the day unlike if I worked full time which is super helpful.

I currently live in a super pet friendly apartment that has an indoor dog play area and pet washing stations as well. I also have a dog park like two blocks away that I love! I myself live in an apartment with one roommate who fosters dogs with me. I do have a cat, but she is good with all animals and typically if I have a dog around I won’t introduce them for a day or so and keep my cat in my room just so the other animal (cat/dog) has free roam around our place to get a feel for it and get comfortable. We’ve never had any issues with having animals over and I love to have any and all around. We always called it our little zoo when we fostered 😊

Pet care experience

Hi everyone! My name is Jessy and I grew up around animals and love to take care of them. I grew up with a cat and three dogs so our house was like a little zoo. Two of the dogs I grew up with had reactive behavior that we had to learn how to train and best deal with and so I’m very well versed in dogs that might just be a little timid or afraid of others. I also have been fostering for the last year! Our last dog- a baby beagle- just got adopted last month. It’s always a bittersweet experience but it’s taught me a lot about other all kinds of dogs with a widddde range of personalities and traits. I love taking care of pets and always have, so if you have any questions feel free to ask!

Jessy has watched our three cats multiple times, and we always know that they are in the best hands. Her love for animals and the attention she gives them is something that any pet parent would be so lucky to have.

I can’t recommend Jessica highly enough as a pet sitter and dog walker. She is responsible, attentive, and genuinely love animals. My pet cinnamon immediately felt comfortable around her and I felt at ease knowing she was in such good hands. Jessica goes above and beyond—sending updates, photos, and making sure every walk or visit is tailored to the pet’s needs. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and reliable, Jessica is the perfect choice. Your pets will thank you!
