Excited to meet your pup!

Pet care experience

I have had dogs most of my life, including growing up with a German shepherd, Pomeranian, and Beagle. Currently, I have one dog (Winston) - a 25lb mini goldendoodle (who looks more like a tiny retriever) who would love a friend to play with.. I’m also a bit obsessed with dogs too =). To ensure dogs get individualized attention while under my care, I will only accept one additional dog at a time (although will consider two if from same family). Ideal weight is between 15lb-35lb to promote compatibility during play. I hope to care for your furry companion soon!

Jessica was prompt at response and came to visit Tater before his first scheduled walk. Tater had a great time walking with Jessica around Jamaica Pond while I was away. I also was happy to receive nice pics of Tater from the walk.

Jessica is amazing at taking care of my dog. I made a request few days before the July 4th long weekend and she was able to accommodate my request. She also takes picture and provide me an update about my dog. I am very satisfy and feel comfortable having my dog boarding at her house. I would highly recommend her. Thank you :)

Jessica was fantastic! I had never left Harper with someone before and she couldn't have been in better hands. Jessica sent pictures and updates daily. She took great care of Harper, took her on walks and adventures in the car. I would highly recommend Jessica!

My dog Destiny and I have known Jessica for quite some time now, I would say about 5 years! However, it has felt like I have known her my entire life and I truly value our friendship and all that she has done for me. Jessica is such a kindhearted and sweet individual. She is so friendly and so very helpful, she exudes such a responsible and hard working ethic in all that she accomplishes. I honestly do not know what I would do without her. One day, Jessica and I were hiking with my dog Destiny when Destiny became overstimulated by all of the smells and pulled away from me to chase a squirrel running towards the edge of the cliff. I was out of reach but Jess was closer and she dove in the air and grabbed my dog right before Destiny went over the edge. I thought I would lose Destiny that day and I am forever thankful that I did not and forever thankful for Jess. Jessica would be the best pick for your pet as you can tell, she has the best instincts when it comes to animals and she loves them all the say the least! We love you Jess!

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with special diets/dietary restrictions. A crate is available for dogs under 30lb who are already crate trained - although I ask you to bring your own bedding (so it feels familiar to your dog) if you would like me to crate periodically. Also, I would need to know if your dog prefers the crate covered, uncovered, or open.

Information Jessica L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any requirements in advance, including diet (amount of food, times per day). I would also like to know about any quirks (for instance our dog prefers to drink water from cups placed strategically around the house instead of his water bowl). A little bit about personality would be helpful too (Do they take a while to warm up to strangers? Are they afraid of certain things?.. For instance, ours has a phobia of ceiling fans primarily when they’re turned off) Your dog must get along with most other dogs. They also must not have possession aggression/resource guarding towards humans.

A typical day

Depending on your dogs interests, activities may include a game of fetch, belly rubs, or a walk along trails near the marsh leading from our backyard. We do not have a fenced in yard.
