Safety, trust & environment

I have cat proofed my own home due to my cat being a master at opening cabinets he is not allowed to be in. When pet sitting I go with the flow of the pet as I want them to feel as if they run the show to avoid causing unnecessary stress on the both of us.

Information Jessica M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any sort of "special" needs that need to be met prior to walking or meeting your pet!

A typical day

I plan to keep them happy, active, and comfortable. I’ll play games like fetch or tug-of-war, go on walks if they enjoy being outside, and spend time giving them attention and affection. For calmer pets, I’d sit with them, pet them, or talk softly so they feel relaxed and safe.

Pet care experience

I have pet sat for family members in the past (many of which have very anxious pets) and was able to care for them and attend to their needs. I also have grown up with cats, reptiles, birds and other aquatic animals so I feel as though I have quite a bit of experience with different types of animals

Jessica was a pleasure to meet. She was prompt responding, very personable, and my pup took to her immediately. She was right on time for the service we required. Will definitely seek her services again

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
