Safe, fun, and inexpensive home

Pet care experience

My name is Jessie and I currently have two dogs. They are both very sweet and playful. Wapato Park is very close to my house and I like to walk my dogs to the dog park section so that they can socialize and I would be willing to take yours as well. I've had dogs my entire life and I just love them. I had a dog for 14 years that had diabetes and needed insulin shots daily so I'm comfortable with administering medications if needed. I have a big (for Tacoma) fenced in back yard so your dogs would be able to run around and play. I was out of town over Thanksgiving and had to have a dog sitter in my home and I couldn't believe how expensive it was! That's why I decided to start dog sitting at a reasonable price. Prices aren't set in stone, I'm willing to work with you depending on the type of dog(s), their needs, and the length of stay. I will send pictures throughout the day via Rover or your personal phone number. If you have snapchat then I can send you small videos/photos of your dogs running around in the yard, playing with my dogs, or just snuggling on the couch. =) I work part time as a CNA and my boyfriend recently got out of the army and is taking some time to relax so he is home with the dogs the entire day! If you have any questions, feel free to text me at ( 9 0 7) 3 4 7-6 8 6 2! Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I got my first dog at 10 years old and I had her for 14 years. About my yard I have a large, fenced backyard that is mostly grass with a large apple tree in the center. It's mostly flat and great for running and playing fetch. My experience administering medication Yes. I had to give my previous dog two shots of insulin daily.

I left my dog Riot for more than a week with Jessica! She kept me updated with how my dog was doing and sent me various pictures during her stay. She even let Riot play with her dogs' toys, which she seemed to absolutely love!

This was our first time with Rover and it was a very good experience. They were flexible with the drop off and pick up times. She sent several pictures and a few updates on how things were going. It looked like he had a lot of fun playing with the other dogs in the back yard. We will use Rover again in the future.

Jessica was great with my dog and kitty. We will definitely book her again.

I would definitely recommend Jessica. We've gone to her twice for overnight stay. Guinness is quite a ball of energy; after picking him up both times, he ko'd in the car and continued to sleep the rest of the day. We will be calling her for future stays.

Information Jessica L. would like to know about your pet

*If they are potty trained, if/how they let you know they need to go potty, if you have a saying (ex: "outside go potty?"), how you'd like me to react if they have an accident * Any special care needs or health issues * How they are with other dogs *They're eating schedule and habits *Any aggression issues or destructive habits *If they're up to date on shots *What they like/dislike *How they do on walks *Do they come when called

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks There's a quiet neighborhood across the street from my house where I like to walk the dogs. I'm just a few streets away from Wapato dog park so I usually stop by there so they can socialize. Wapato also has a nice walking path around the lake and trails in wooded areas. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep in my bed or in a crate. Whichever is preferred. Time I'll spend with your dog As much as possible! I make sure to spend one on one time playing, cuddling, and walking each dog.
