Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced in yard with 2 gated off sections - a dedicated dog run area with ramp access for our older friends and then the bigger yard, 2 rowdy dogs that LOVE play dates, and I am great with handling & light training/reinforcing. Ive handled bitey dogs and dogs that go into fight or flight or are just super anxious, they all come out of their shell before the end of their stay. Plenty of pictures & videos taken to send whenever you're missing your furry family member. All gates are double locked for the escape artists and fencing collars available ONLY on request & approval(beeping/vibration setting only) I come with pockets full of treats!

Information Jessica H. would like to know about your pet

A registered nurse is home all day with my son so in the event of an emergency, she is able to let everyone outside(even for emergency potty breaks!) or get me on the phone to let me know whats going on. No one is left alone, kenneled unnecessarily or locked in or outside. Free come & go access via the large doggie door If you have a dog that needs ramp access and no stairs, we will ensure the ramp is used vs the back steps to the deck. If your dog is a digger, jumper or eloper, i do have 2 electric fence collars set to a low setting(beeping/vibration) available ONLY if requested and approved. All gates are double locked.

A typical day

I like to think ive mastered the "activate zoomies" button on dogs so we run & run & run & run & play all afternoon🤪 We have the dog run with a tunnel under way, the pool and lots of toys and balls to chase, bones to bury & kids to play with.

Pet care experience

Im easy going and almost always available to drop in for pet sitting, walking, or play dates. I have a very flexible day job and have a few clients i walk for on a whim when life happens. Ive trained my old man solo since the day I got him at 6 weeks and hes phenomenally behaved and in the works on training my very high energy puppy who is following in suit to be just as incredible as a handicap working dog. We make our own rules over here to balance fun, routine, structure & boundaries that work with all living beings under the roof to keep everyone happy & safe.

Jessica was easy to work with, and took good care of my girl. I received pictures, she quickly responded & my dog was happy when she was picked up. She must have had a good time!

Jessica is the best! We had her watch my pup for 4 days and 3 nights, and it was my dog’s first time sleeping over anywhere besides our home and first time staying with other dogs in the same house. When we first dropped her off at Jessica’s place, the first 10 minutes were a little nerve-wracking for us because we were worried she might change her mind about watching my pup. She made the entire transition process so easy and comforting. I was also nervous that my dog might feel scared around her pups, but her pups were incredibly gentle and welcoming. They kept trying to bond with my dog, and before long, my pup started opening up to them. By the end of the stay, her dogs and my dog were happily spending time together, playing and bonding like they had known each other for a long time. Jessica also keeps you updated with videos, pictures, and daily messages about your dog, which gave us so much comfort and peace of mind while we were away. It truly felt like our pup was safe, loved, and genuinely enjoying herself the entire time. I would absolutely trust Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, patient, communicative, and experienced with dogs.

We had Jessica watch our Husky, Titan, every day for a week while our house was being painted, and we couldn’t have been happier! Titan absolutely loved his time with her—he was so excited each morning to go back. Jessica took wonderful care of him, and he had plenty of friends to play with. We would definitely book her again—she truly took great care of our little boy!
