We moved down here about 2 years ago. I work a part time remote day job which has a ton of flexibility so daytime visits are super easy. I also work a part time night job at a local pet store but with enough notice, I can adjust my schedule there.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently don’t offer housesitting or boarding but will consider it for a regular customer that I have gotten to know. Please reach out if you are interested in that. I require at minimum 3 drop in visits before discussing housesitting or boarding. Also, my schedule is quite flexible but I do book up some weeks. I can almost always squeeze a cat visit in if the times are flexible so feel free to reach out even if it’s less than a week. Dogs are a little tougher because times aren’t as flexible with them but I can usually accommodate last minute requests there too.

Information Jessica H. would like to know about your pet

please let me know any special needs or quirks your pets have, as well as any allergies and diet restrictions. I typically use freeze dried beef liver or chicken breast as treats unless told otherwise.

A typical day

Play, pets, lots of attention and fun. If you want a walk, we walk, if it’s just a potty break and inside play, we do that instead.

Semi crazy cat lady, loves dogs too

Pet care experience

I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up with cats and dogs and currently have two cats, two fish and two hedgehogs. I’ve had numerous fish, dogs and cats through my life. I have 5 years of volunteer experience with cat rescue and adoption center staffing and love spending time socializing animals. I have also been casually doing dog walking for a rescue and neighbors. I had a formerly feral kitty named Gretchen who blossomed into a snuggly sweetheart with the grumpiest facial expressions. She even had her own Instagram before passing away from cancer. It documents my recently adopted senior cats lives now. My parents have two shelties that I’ve been Petsitting off and on for 7 years. When I visit them, we go on walks in the neighborhood and at the local trails. My in laws have a pit bull, who is a total love bug and has made me fall in love with the breed as well.

Jessica was wonderful with Asher and Lily! She was so accommodating and went above and beyond, even making an extra drop-in when Lily got into something she shouldn’t have. We really appreciated how caring and attentive she was and would definitely book with her again!
