Pet care experience

Fur Baby Approved Since 2008 🐾 ✨

For over 16 years, animals have been my greatest passion… and caring for them has been my calling! Whether I'm walking dogs, snuggling cats, or keeping a watchful eye on your home, I pour my whole heart into everything I do. I know how big of a deal it is to trust someone with your fur babies and your home, and I never take that for granted. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel so loved and cared for that they barely notice you're gone and to give you the peace of mind to actually enjoy your time away! Every pet I care for gets the full package, walks, playtime, cuddles, and plenty of attention. I love getting to know each animal's unique personality and building a real bond with them. I also have experience with livestock, so no farm is too much for me! I'm always happy to provide references, because I want you to feel completely confident and comfortable before we even get started. If you're looking for a reliable, passionate, and purr-fectly dedicated pet and house sitter, I would absolutely love to meet you and your crew! Let's chat about how I can help make your next trip away stress-free, for you and your pets. 🐾

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in both my own home and my clients' homes, I provide a range of services tailored to meet the specific needs of each pet. These services may include: 1. Feeding: I ensure that pets are provided with the appropriate amount and type of food according to their dietary requirements. This includes following any specific feeding schedules or instructions provided by the pet owner. 2. Exercise and Playtime: I engage pets in regular exercise and playtime to keep them active and entertained. This may involve taking dogs for walks, playing with cats using interactive toys, or providing other forms of physical activity based on the pet's preferences. 3. Medication Administration: If required, I am experienced in administering medications to pets as per the instructions provided by the pet owner or veterinarian. This ensures that pets receive their medications on time and in the correct dosage. 4. Monitoring Health: I keep a close eye on the health and well-being of pets under my care. This includes observing any changes in behavior, appetite, or physical appearance that may indicate a potential health issue. If necessary, I promptly communicate any concerns to the pet owner and seek veterinary care if required. 5. Providing Comfort and Attention: I understand that pets thrive on love and attention, so I make sure to provide them with plenty of affection and companionship. This includes spending quality time with them, offering cuddles and petting, and providing a safe and comfortable environment. It's important to note that the specific services I offer may vary depending on the type of pet, their individual needs, and the preferences of the pet owner. By customizing my services, I aim to provide the best possible care for pets in both my own home and my clients' homes.

She did an amazing job with our two rambunctious dogs. Lots of pictures and lots of communication.

Jessica was amazing with our very excited Labrador while we were away for 6 days! She stayed at our home with River and was wonderful at keeping us updated throughout her stay. We will absolutely be using Jessica again in the future!

We feel so lucky to have found Jessica! She is everything you could want in a dog sitter. She's outgoing, friendly, confident, responsible and so good with dogs. We have a sensitive, reactive dog and she did such a great job gaining his trust. Jessica is communicative and left our home spotless. We would definitely hire her again.

Jessica is one of the most attentive and communicative sitters we’ve ever worked with! She provided frequent updates and photos and both my babies (a dog and a cat) looked so happy and content in every picture. We had multiple days in the high 90s while we were out of town and she made sure Moose got out early in the mornings or late in the evenings, and even did his puzzles with him during the day to get some energy out. 10/10 would recommend her to take care of your babies!

Schedule

I currently work full-time in sales for a beverage distribution company, Monday through Friday. While I spend most of my day out in the field, I have breaks throughout the day to check in on your furry friends. My territory covers Kalispell and Whitefish, so I'm always close by and can be readily available for walks, visits, or any other care your pets may need. I'm committed to providing reliable and loving care for your pets, even with my busy schedule. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or specific needs!

Typically, I like to get a pet care safety plan that lists emergency contacts, such as your preferred veterinarian and fur-godparents (who do we call if we can’t get a hold of you), as well as a history of health concerns for your pet. I also like to have a list of your pet’s medications (if any). What is their microchip information? What’s your pet’s daily food intake - including dry food, wet food and treats? What is your dog’s favorite games to play? I like to know about your dog’s personality — do they get along with other animals and people? Do they have any anxieties (such as the mailman or motorcycles driving by)? All of this information and more, is helpful so that you and your pet receive the best possible service!
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.
