Highlights
Pet care experience
Must love pets!
I love all animals! I have had dogs pretty much my whole life, and cats pretty much all my adult life. My beloved dog Cheyenne that I got when I was in middle school introduced me to training and I have since been interested in dog training and behavior and I am always striving to learn the newest positive reinforcement trainings. When I was little, I knew I wanted to do something with animals, I was thinking about being a veterinarian... After high school I enlisted in the United Stated Army Reserves I served 6 years. After I was out, I started college and eventually found a tech school that had a vet tech assist. program. While I was still in school, I got hired at a vet hospital. I loved working at a Veterinary Hospital as a vet tech assistant, and I loved what I did. Providing care for patients and information for clients and of course loving on the animals. What I enjoyed the most was learning about dentals and helping take the x-rays. I even got to help clean the teeth. I have worked at 3 different doggie daycares. I loved the dogs and will miss them, but I am ready to venture out on my own and start my own little business. I also have 5 dogs and 5 cats of my own. I will extend the same care I give my own animals and those at my prior jobs on to your own fur kids. I am good with all breeds of dogs and cats. I will spend time playing, feeding {if required} and taking outside. I can administrate meds if needed oral and injections. For dog walks I will take them to a local trail or dog park {I am 20min/13mil from Dakota memorial dog park!}. Or just a simple walk around the neighborhood. What I would like to know about your pet? Any special commands or special feeding instructions. Sensitive spots that they do not want to be pet. Any anxiety or other behavior issues. No breed restrictions. Additional Skills Oral Medication Administration Can provide daily exercise. Injected Medication Administration

Safety, trust & environment
My property is fenced, my dogs stay on property. We do go on walks throughout the day. We participate in frisbee, barn hunt, agility and flyball. For walks I average 1 mile for a 30 min visit, and for drop ins that normally entails potty breaks, playing, cleaning litter boxes, feeding exc. For house sitting that includes feeding, potty breaks/walks and playing during the day and sleeping at your house. I do have my own pets and possible other drop in clients. I can not stay at your house 24/7
Ratings and reviews
Jessica is dependable, thorough, has great communication, and has a wonderful demeanor with the animals. Our skittish cats were drawn to her, our anxious dog trusted her surprisingly fast. Highly recommend.
Jessica is great with the dogs and cats. She clearly is well educated and experienced with animals. I’d hire her to train!!
Jessica is doing drop ins for my little guy while I’m at work. She has been easy to communicate with and sends updates and pictures. I’m new in the area and it makes having to go to work easier knowing my guy is getting cared for. You can tell Jessica really cares about the animals she is working with. Would highly recommend!
Jessica was wonderful! I could tell immediately upon meeting her that she has a deep connection with animals. She was also so kind to my 5 yr old son and took on our job last minute which I really appreciate so much. She was very kind and connected really well with our cat. She took great care of everything, kept things clean, and even cleaned up litter that our cat had spilled. Her communication was excellent, and she sent lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It gave me so much peace of mind and helped me actually relax and enjoy my vacation knowing our cat was in good hands. I would absolutely book with her again! Highly recommend!!! Thank you Jessica!
Jessica was great. She gave my cats tons of love and kept me well informed. I will have her back. It seems my three cats liked her a lot!
Jessica did great with our two cats! She had no hesitation at all in dealing with an old cranky kitty and having to administer a med. Appreciated all the communication and extra help like bringing trash cans in and watering plants!
