Safety, trust & environment

I treat other people's pets like my own. I have never met a pet of any kind that I did not love. I have always had the softest heart for animals. I would love to shower your fur baby in attention, treats, walks, and love. I am very energetic but can be laid back too- so I vibe with all kids of pets! I will be 100% respectful to your wishes for your baby and your home.

Information Jessica L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs I should know about in advance. I have experience administering medication to all kinds of dogs and have advanced experience taking care of senior dogs and puppies. I have no breed preference! If you have a reactive or violent dog, please let me know how I can best take care of your baby in a way that keeps us both safe.

A typical day

I am a big fan of enrichment for all animals. A typical day for me would definitely include some enrichment- such as licky mats, puzzles, or simply just playing fetch. I am very active and would love to run and walk with your pet! My day would also of course include snuggles and lots of love. I would likely brush and groom your pet as well!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of all types of animals from the time I was little. I was raised around two dogs in childhood, and three dogs in adolescence. We had a golden retriever, a pug, and have two Australian shepherds. I also have two cats and two lovebirds. Growing up, my mom was (and still is!) an English Budgie parakeet breeder. I grew up hand raising and training all kinds of birds. I have trained three puppies (potty trained, trick trained, leash trained, etc.) and have experience training, feeding, and weening very young (2-3 day old) kittens. I also have in-depth experience with freshwater fish, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, hermit crabs, plants, bearded dragons, and mice!

Jessica does a great job taking care of our cats. She even is able to give our stubborn cat her medicine! We have booked her multiple times and will continue to rebook!!

Jessica has watched our dogs a couple of times now and has been excellent both times. I can’t imagine any way she could possibly do a better job!
