First time with Jessica and she was fabulous. Five stars out of five. She was on time, reliable as can be, took great care of our two cats, sent pictures and videos, stayed in touch, everything was in great shape here upon our return, we’re so happy with her. Thank you Jessica. We’re looking forward to our next trip knowing you are so wonderful.

Jessica always does such a great job! She goes above and beyond with check ins, caring for the house, and for the dogs! They love when she stays with them. You won’t go wrong trusting her with your babies.

Jess was the paragon of professionalism, kindness, and competence with our two ~70 lb. dogs and with our home! She sent us videos all the time, stayed in great touch, and was so patient and loving with the dogs. One of our dogs gets a little nervous with new people, and Jess was able to work with him and get him through it better than anyone ever has! She also left our place spotless with clean sheets on the bed for when we got home. If you want the best dog sitter ever, hire Jess!

As always Jessica was amazing! But this visit was exceptional. Our senior yorkie came down with some serious health issues on the tail end of our trip and Jessica went above and beyond taking her to and from the vet, managing her medications, and keeping me updated on every step. It's always a pet owners worst nightmare for a health emergency to happen when you're gone and Jessica handled it so well. Even though I was panicked being so far away, I knew my little senior dog was in good hands until we could get back. Our vet even commented on what a wonderful pet sitter we have! Thank you Jessica for taking such splendid care of my babies!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not board any animals at my home as I prefer to take care of them in their own environment. Outside of work in FORT COLLINS Mon-Fri from 8am-5pm (more info in frequently asked questions further below), I will spend most of my time at the client's house, aside from running regular errands. I focus all my attention on caring for the animals. Along with caring for a client's pet(s), I follow the instructions laid out for me to a tee. If I were to hire someone to take care of my animals while I was away, I'd want them care for my babies exactly as I would. I also take care of the house: water plants, take out trash, wash the sheets and towels that are used, and collect mail. Thank you for taking time to review my profile and I hope to have a chance to sit for your beloved pets.

Information Jessica L. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your pets behavior and if there is anything that might make your pet uncomfortable. For example, some dogs don’t like being pet on the head, I have encountered it a handful of times. Most important thing is that I have the owner’s vet information and closest emergency hospital. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: 1. I understand you work 8am-5pm, what time will you leave and return to the house on an overnight stay? ANSWER: It all depends on the distance. For example I work in old town FORT COLLINS. Residences that do not exceed a 20 minute drive from cross streets Jefferson St and Linden Street will also receive lunchtime visits for free. *If there is enough notice, I can try to make arrangements to leave work early. 2. Do you handle raw food? ANSWER: Yes! 3. Are you okay picking up after the pet? ANSWER: Yes! 4. Will you bring anyone to the house with you? ANSWER: No! 5. Are you comfortable staying in whichever room that the pet normally sleeps in? ANSWER: Yes and I also have my own blow up mattress, sheets/pillows/blankets, towels, and cookware that I can bring with me too. 6. What do you require for us (the clients) to leave? ANSWER: Emergency contacts, Vet info, Emergency Vet Hospital info, information on where you will be staying, feeding instructions and other pet instructions, house instructions, and WiFi network/password.

A typical day

We will play and go on walks. I have some experience using the clicker for teaching dogs how to obey commands if the owner needs help with that.

I have been a pet sitter for 16 years. I love animals and spending time with all two and four legged friends. I want to make each pet feel as comfortable as possible while their owner is away. I take this job very seriously and as quoted by one of my clients "your pictures and videos make me feel closer and increase my comfort level, I can see his (Zeke's) face and know he's happy, that's why I hire you to stay at my home with my pet, it's all in the eyes."
