Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Home Full-Time
Dogs have always been an important part of my life and have shaped who I am in many ways. Growing up surrounded by them made it feel natural to always have dogs around me. That lifelong love eventually led me to work as a dog sitter and walker in Atlanta during college. During that time, I had the pleasure of caring for a wide variety of dogs. These dogs ranged from large Rottweilers to tiny toy poodles, as well as energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs. I really enjoyed becoming a part of their daily routines and experiencing their faces light up with joy and excitement!

Safety, trust & environment
I have three dogs at home two toy poodles and a senior husky. They all get along well with small to mid-sized dogs. The toy poodles have full access in our home, and our husky prefers to stay in the basement or backyard. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to spend a lot of quality time with the dogs and keep a close eye on them throughout the day. I always supervise potty breaks in our fenced backyard, and while I’m working, they’re usually either entertaining themselves or relaxing right next to me. Our backyard has stairs that lead down to a grassy area, along with various plants/ small trees, and a koi pond. I make sure to stay attentive while they’re outside, so they don’t get into anything they shouldn’t. Inside, the dogs have full access, but we are typically on the main floor together. I’m always available to take them out whenever they need a potty break. We do have hardwood floors, with a few small rugs. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m always willing to give extra attention, patience, or care. Grooming is also a regular part of our routine, so I make sure their coat is brushed often, so they can stay clean and healthy.
Ratings and reviews
Jessica was an excellent pet sitter! She was a clear communicator, followed instructions, and did a great job meeting the needs of my 2 dogs.
Jessica was absolutely amazing taking care of my dogs for a full week. She kept me completely at ease the entire time by sending regular photo updates and consistent check-ins, so I always knew how they were doing. She went above and beyond. Not only making sure they were happy and well cared for, but also administering their medication perfectly and on schedule. It’s such a relief to have someone so reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. I would 100% trust Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like their own.
Jessica is an exceptional pet caregiver who has consistently gone above and beyond to make sure our border collies are taken good care of! She is reliable, attentive, and truly treats our babies like her own. Whether it’s keeping up with routines and needs, providing consistent updates, or giving extra affection, Jessica always delivers peace of mind. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and friendly sitter!

Schedule
I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, and this applies for the weekends as well. We usually start the day around 7:30AM with a quick potty break, and then the dogs either roam around for a bit or go back to sleep. Breakfast is at 9AM, followed by some time in the backyard to play or go potty again. During the day, I am working but make sure to let them out every two to three hours. If the weather’s nice and it’s not too hot, we’ll go for a walk around noon. I also try to play with them throughout the day by playing with their toys, checking in, and keeping them engaged. Before dinner, I like to help them burn off any extra energy by running around with them or letting them play together in the backyard. At 7PM they are fed dinner, and then they get some time to relax and digest. They usually nap afterward, and if they didn't get a chance to walk in the afternoon, I like to take them for a walk around 8 or 9PM. If they're still bouncing off the walls, we’ll play a little more in the house before they settle in for the night around 10 or 11PM. If I need to step out for an errand (typically takes about 2-3 hours), I always make sure they’ve been let out beforehand so they’re comfortable while I’m gone.
