Safe cuddle space for your kitty!
Pet care experience
I used to run a non-profit animal rescue for stray cats, finding them furever homes 💗 🐱 I have 10 years of experience helping cats feel safe and comfortable, allowing them to approach me at their own pace. I apply tactics to keep them calm in new environments, ensuring they eat and use the litter regularly. With patience, I provide care, grooming, and eye cleaning as needed. I am experienced in catsitting up to 4 animals from the same household, and always ensure to meet their individual needs without exposing them to other animals. Your cat's time with me is dedicated solely to them and their fur siblings 💗

Jessica’s love for animals is like no other. She has watched our cat Bentley many times and sometimes for weeks at a time. She literally gets her home ready for the pets she taking care of. She gets to know them so well that she personalizes her space for each animal. Our cat loves going there so much that he gives us attitude when he comes home. Her dedication, passion and love for animals is so extraordinary that she cares for all the animals she watches as if they are her own. You don’t have to worry one bit when your pet is with Jessica. There’s no one else with trust with our cat.
I highly recommend Jessicas services! She pet sat my pets while I was away, and cared for them like they were her own. She kept in touch with daily updates and videos which comforted me and released my anxiety about being so far from them. She's the absolute sweetest!
My little Nessie LOVES Jessica, and she's a picky one! From the start, Jessica connected with her and understood her needs. She's very patient and treats her like one of her own fur babies. I feel completely at ease leaving her with Nessie, especially with the cute updates she sends hehe. It's clear she's experienced and a true animal lover. Thank you SO much, Jessica :)
When it comes to entrusting the care of my beloved cat, there's no one I'd rely on more than Jess. Her unparalleled dedication and genuine love for animals make her the ideal caregiver. Having known her for years, I've witnessed her unwavering commitment to animal welfare, from running a non-profit animal rescue to personally ensuring the well-being of every pet under her care as a sitter. Jess's selflessness knows no bounds. She has invested countless hours and resources into the betterment of animals. In the past, when she had an animal rescue, she used a meticulous screening process for potential adoptive families which demonstrated her unwavering dedication to ensuring each animal found a safe and loving home. Today Jess has transitioned to offering pet sitting services which are exemplary. She goes above and beyond to cater to the needs of every animal, diligently following feeding schedules and administering medication as required. Even in challenging situations where cats may feel anxious or unsettled, Jess remains patient and nurturing, providing reassurance until they feel at ease. My most memorable experience with Jess's pet care services was when she looked after my cat, Benjamin. I knew she would spare no effort in ensuring he felt loved and comfortable during my absence. In summary, Jess's pet care services are second to none. Her passion for animals, coupled with her unwavering dedication and patience, make her the epitome of a trustworthy and devoted caregiver. I wholeheartedly recommend Jess to anyone seeking exceptional care for their furry companions.

Safety, trust & environment
🐈 I am patient and give them their space until they feel comfortable enough to approach me. I let them observe me at a distance, and let them make the first move if I sense they are scared. If they rather keep their distance, I accommodate their needs and slide the food to them - no matter where they are hiding. 🛌 Cats are allowed on the bed (and the table and counter, if we have no choice!) 🪟 Windows and doors remained closed at all times. I keep them safe! 💨 No airfreshners or candles are lit in their presence, to avoid any reactions. 🚨 I only catsit from one family at a time (If you have more than 1 cat, I can accommodate that) 📷 I will send you as many updates as you would like, based off how they are eating, sleeping, using the litter, or behaving. You'll get photos of them too!

Information Jessica L. would like to know about your pet
Prior to booking, it would help me in knowing the following in order to best take care of your furbaby: ❓Do they have an eating schedule? ❓Do they have to eat specific quantities throughout the day? ❓Is there any noise or thing that typically scares or angers them? ❓Do they like to be brushed? ❓Do they like to be held? ❓What else would you like me to know about them?
A typical day
• Cuddle sessions: I call it Netflix & Pur! • Brushing time: If your cat feels comfortable enough, I'll give them a brushing so they are taken care of and feel relaxed. • Play time: Whether you bring their own toys or we play with ones I already have, there's going to be some 'pitch and catch' or jumping during our time together! (If they want it) • Hide & Seek: The cat tree has a hammock as well as a sleep hideout which cats love to play with and then get cozy. • Tons of selfies: They will have many fans on social media - if that is okay with you!

🏠 I work from home full time, so I'm always home while I catsit. They get to spend all day in my care, and I'm available to more closely look after them and make sure all their basic needs are met. 🍖 I can accommodate whatever their eating schedule and portioning is, if they have a prescribed one. 🧸 Play time (if they want/need it) is consistent in this home, but I make sure that in the mornings and evenings they get more attention so that we can strengthen the trust between us. 🌙 ☀️ Sungazing & nap time are 24/7 in this house - I have a cat tree that I can place in front of the window for them so they can bird watch, sungaze or watch the moon at their convenience. 🛏️ When I catsit, I make sure I always sleep at home to ensure the cats are comforted and not alone. If I need to step out, I always ensure it is not for long
