Veteran & Loving Dog Mom

Hi, I'm Jessica Helmer Dillon, a 37-year-old Navy veteran and proud pet mom! My love for dogs has been a lifelong passion, and I've been fortunate to share my life with amazing pups of all ages, sizes, and needs. Currently, I have three wonderful dogs: Carter and Anze, 10-year-old basset hound twins, and Rhubarb, a 1.5-year-old special needs Doberman who was a shelter rescue. I've also had the privilege of caring for Henley, an 11-year-old Weimaraner, and Ryker, a 14-year-old special needs Doberman, both shelter rescues who have since crossed the rainbow bridge. I'm a part-time volunteer at Noah Dog Rescue, where I work closely with dogs of various backgrounds, temperaments, and special needs. Whether it's providing comfort to a senior pup, assisting with special needs dogs, or playing with high-energy young ones, I adapt to their unique requirements with patience and love. What I Offer Experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments Expertise in handling special needs dogs A calm, loving environment tailored to your dog's needs Plenty of walks, cuddles, and attention Whether you're looking for a dependable sitter or someone to care for your fur baby like their own, I’m here to help. I understand how much your dog means to you, and I strive to provide the same level of care I’d want for my own pups. Let’s connect to see how I can support you and your furry family member!

Jessica was prompt with her visits. Toby just loved her and was so happy to see her. I would highly recommend Jessica to take care of your pet, and would hire her again.

Jessica is just amazing. Always communicates quickly and is 100% reliable. My dogs have a lot of energy, and my little one is very nervous around new people but they LOVE her! Just a good all around person I trust her with my dogs 100000%

As always, Jessica takes my boy Finn on the best “sniffaris”. He always comes home happy and chilled out:)

In order to provide the best care for your pets, I would appreciate some important information beforehand. This includes any specific dietary requirements or restrictions, any medical conditions or medications, and their general temperament and socialization with other dogs and people. Additionally, I would love to know about their favorite toys, games, and walking routes, so I can ensure that our time together is as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.
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.
