Pet care experience

Dog hair everywhere

I’ve had dogs my whole life, up to three at a time. Over the years I’ve taken in many rescues and fostered dogs from time to time — big or small, young or old it doesn’t matter to me. I’ve also had cats throughout my life. Simply put, I’m an animal lover. Right now I have two dogs of my own, River and Bruiser (an 85lb beauceron and a 35lb true mutt, both rescues, who have traveled cross country with me. They hike, camp and swim but mostly love cuddles. I’m experienced giving medications when needed — oral meds, ear drops, you name it — and I’ve helped several dogs recover post-surgery. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, behaviors and sizes. I’m active and outgoing, so I love taking dogs for long walks. I work from home, so as long as there’s Wi-Fi, I’m happy to house-sit and hang out with your dogs or cats while I work. I’m also available for quick drop-in visits — walks, feeding, water, play, fetch, whatever’s needed. Flexible scheduling works fine for me.

House Sitting • Aug 11, 2026

Jessica was a Godsend. Due to a last minute sitter cancellation that left me scrambling for a long work trip, I found Jessica. Then right before my trip, my pup got an injury. I walked through everything with Jessica and with her prior experience caring for fosters, I knew he was in the right hands while I was away. She took amazing care of my guy, kept me up to date on everything and sent loads of pictures of my guy. I am forever grateful for the care she provided while I was away for an extended period and helping Beckham recover from his injury. Highly recommend booking with Jessica!

Jessica and River were wonderful with Fenway. River got along famously with our girl and they had the best time. We will definitely look to them when Fenway has to go to camp.

My second time having Jessica dog sit for me. She is such a blessing and sends photo updates daily of Riley and her dog River playing. I’m happy to have found her. It makes me more comfortable as a dog owner to know your dog can enjoy himself while you have to travel out of town. Poor guy was so tired when I picked him up, I could tell he got a lot of play time!

Thank you so much for looking after Daisy. She loved having a backyard for a few days and playing with River and Bruiser. 5 Stars!

Jessica was great at communicating and sending updates/photos regularly throughout my dog’s stay. She has two pups of her own which were great for my dog to play with as well, and she made sure to give me a debrief of how my dog acted as it was her first time staying at a Rover overnight on her own! I’d be happy to have her watch my dog again.

Doggy Day Care • Nov 15, 2021

Jessica is an absolute gem! She took good care of Riley and sent lots of photo updates while I had to fly out to California for the day. I really enjoyed seeing them and it made me feel comfortable knowing Riley was in good hands and having fun. Her dog River is very friendly and sweet! Riley and her played well together. This was my first experience using Rover and I had many questions–Jessica was very patient with me and even agreed to a meet and greet prior to make sure our dogs got a long well. I would definitely recommend her services to anyone. She treated Riley like he was part of the family, he was allowed on furniture and got to enjoy movie night with her and her husband. Thank you Jessica!
