Drop-ins/walks in Bishop!
Pet care experience
I just moved down to Bishop after 7 years living in Mammoth, so I'm available for walks/drop-ins in Bishop mostly these days. If I already have plans to be in Mammoth I'm happy to do drop-ins or walks up there, feel free to message me and check! My dog, Harper, loves other dogs when we're out and about, but she's less keen on dogs in her cozy calm home these days, so I'm only available for drop-ins and walks. I've been watching friends' and clients' dogs for years and love meeting new dogs. Harper and I get out for at least two off-leash walks every day, and I'm always happy to have another dog join us, or to drop by for a potty break/visit or do a walk without Harper so I can focus on your pup(s). If you have multiple dogs, Harper will stay at home since 2 is plenty to juggle. I'm happy to keep your dog on leash, or if they're good off-leash I have lots of go-to spots with no one else around (and far from cars) in Bishop/Mammoth for some off-leash time to get the energy out.
Reviews
Jessica was great and very flexible on timing, location, etc as I visited Bishop from out of town!
Jessica was so wonderful with our dog, onyx. She was very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend her. We felt so confident leaving our puppy in her care.
Jessica took great care of Gigi!
Jessica was very responsive and flexible. She sent many pictures and updated me throughout the day so I knew what he was up to. My dog had a blast going on a walk in through the snow! I would book with her again.

I'm super detail-oriented and thorough. If I'm doing drop-ins or walks and not meeting you since you're out and about, I'm happy to follow instructions for access, feed your pup or refresh water while I'm there, bring in mail, water your plants, whatever you need. I always keep dogs on leash unless we're in a super safe area and you've given me the go-ahead to let them off leash to run around a bit. I've been told I have a calming energy and like to stay grounded and chill around pets so they're comfortable with me.
Information Jessica K. would like to know about your pet
WINTER REQUIREMENTS FOR MAMMOTH REQUESTS: Mammoth is a winter wonderland from November to May. For walks in the winter, I require dogs over 40 pounds to be either trained to walk on a loose leash (no pulling) or come with a Gentle Leader or EasyWalk (front loop) harness for control. It's a dangerous situation for me and for your dog to have a pulling situation on such slippery sidewalks, roads, trails, etc. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: Your dog must be good with strangers (no history of people aggression) for drop-ins and walks. If your dog isn't dog-friendly, no worries, I'll do drop-ins or walks solo and leave my pup at home.
A typical day
Most days Mon-Fri I'm working from home and setting my own hours. Often I get out for a walk early in the morning, work a few hours, go for a midday walk, work some more, and walk again. I like neighborhood walks but often opt for safe off-leash dirt roads where Harper and any dogs we're walking can romp around.
Services
Jessica can watch in your home
Availability
I'm self-employed and work from home, so my schedule is very fluid and flexible - as long as I have advance notice I can fit in drop-ins/walks when they're needed.
