Petsitting Services in Your Home
Pet care experience
The rates listed here on Rover are a guideline. Message me for a quote! :) I'm also happy to meet with you and your pets prior to booking to see if you'd like to book me and to tell me about your routine and needs - no obligation, no cost. The quotes I give will be based on a number of factors, including whether or not it's an overnight stay or drop-in visit. I do not charge per dog/pet. I charge per day. I will also consider your location to me or my work. However, I'd like to stress that I'd hate to lose a client just because they weren't in a position to pay my rates. I charge what I do because of my experience and knowing how much time and effort it takes to give dogs the care and attention they deserve. If you are in need of a quality dog sitter and feel I am that person, but can't afford my rates, let me know your situation and I may be able to do it for a discount! **RATES** general guidelines -Overnight stays: $30/night - this is for anything within 20 miles of my work in Franklin (off Carothers). -Drop in visits: $40/day - this will cover 3 drop in visits. If you only need 2, I can drop this to $30/day. -Walks: $10/walk - depends on location/days needed - I have a flexible work schedule but just need to know the situation to be able to determine if I can take you on as a client! I started professionally dogsitting in 2011. Since then, I've worked with a variety of dog breeds, sizes, personalities, and temperaments. I'm talking fussy eaters, fussy poopers, just straight up fussy in general. I've administered medication, I've comforted anxious dogs, I've won over cranky dogs, I've reined in very enthusiastic leash pullers. I'm also a volunteer at the Metro Animal shelter where I walk dogs. I don't currently own any as I live in an apartment. But I am a happy cat mom to 3 cats! If there's anything specific you want to know about me, feel free to ask!
Reviews
Jessica was a joy to work with when she watched my three dogs (two weimers and a mixed breed mutt). I had some concerns with how rowdy they can be, especially the two younger ones. However, she handled them like a pro! She was very sweet and genuine. I gave her my list of instructions on the dogs because they can be quite a handful but she seemedto pickup on it quick and showed a willingness to do whatever it took. I would definitely ask her to dogsit again for me.
Jessica did some dogsitting for me while I was out of town about a year ago. I have two dogs and a cat in Brentwood. She was very sweet and her references gave her a glowing review. I was pleased with the level of care the dogs received.. she took care of them in my home and everything appeared to be in order when I got back. I would certainly recommend her and use her services again. She was nice and professional and she seemed very flexible.

I care for pets as though they were my pets. I treat people's homes as though it were my home. Picking out a pet sitter is such a personal choice and one that can be nervewracking because it's a stranger! I know from experience in having to choose a pet sitter. Do whatever you need to do to feel more comfortable. I'm pretty accommodating!

Schedule is utmost important. Right down to timing. The 2 biggest factors to me are going to be location and times needed. I don't care how big your dog is or how small or if they're cranky or overly excitable. I'm prepared for pretty much any challenge! I'm most concerned with how I can be of service and how I can make sure your pet is healthy and happy while you're gone.
A typical day
A typical day is whatever the dog needs it to be! No two dogs are alike. No two days are alike. I think it's best to keep a dog in the routine they're most used to. Whether that's the park or a walk around the block. Keeping them on their schedule, playing with their favorite toys, and given plenty of love and attention. It's not just being there to walk them and feed them--it's giving them affection. While their owner is gone, they can get anxious or sad, and I essentially try to be there to soothe them and ensure they have a fun time while mom or dad is gone!

Availability
I work M-F with flexible hours. Typically 7a-3:30p. I work a hybrid remote schedule but when I am in the office it's in Franklin. I can change my schedule or location a bit to accommodate your needs if necessary. For instance, if you live closer to me, like in Nolensville, I can work from home in order to be at your place to drop-in at your required times. I can also work remotely for a week if your pet needs someone at home all the time, for overnight/house sitting stays
