Services

Jessica can care for

Cats

Availability

I work remotely, so I can easily pack up my laptop and spend all day in your home to keep your cat(s) company. Or if they just need drop-in care, I can come by between 7-9 a.m. and after 5 p.m. on weekdays. For overnight/house-sitting, my schedule also easily allows that.

Safety, trust & environment

If I get to meet you and your cat(s) beforehand, I love to learn details like their favorite toys, hiding spots, personality quirks, favorite food dishes, and what snacks I can use to bribe them for affection. I often put a cat-friendly YouTube channel on the TV if they like, or I can easily take a nice afternoon break to let an indoor-outdoor cat explore the backyard for a bit.

Information Jessica M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about temperament, how best to earn their trust, hiding spots, snack protocol, and where the cleaning supplies are in case I need to clean up an accident outside the litter box.

A typical day

I love breaking up the monotony with dedicated play or toy time, tossing paper balls and dangling string toys. I am also a big fan of brushing if the cat is open to it.

Cat care experience

I have always lived in a household with at least one cat, and I currently am a cat mom to three fluffy babes. I will also cat-sit for friends when they're in need. So over the decades, I've become adept at administering oral medications, helping them find enrichment with new or favorite toys, and cleaning up a classic scarf-and-barf.

Jessica did a fantastic job watching Jude and I would absolutely have her again and recommend her to others. She was very communicative the whole weekend we were out of town, very easy to reach and patient with Jude who is very shy upon first meeting people.

Jessica is an amazing pet sitter. I have booked her twice now and she goes above and beyond, communicates well and regularly, and somehow leaves my home cleaner than when she arrived. 😂 She sends photos and videos often, and somehow it is always right when I’m thinking about my sweet kitty. I am very anxious when leaving my ragdoll and have felt super comfortable knowing she is with Jessica. Your pet is definitely in great hands with her!

Jessica recently took care of my home and senior kitty for the first time. She was absolutely wonderful. She asked all the right questions and kept me posted during her visit. My kitty seemed very happy and cared for when I returned. I'll definitely reach out to Jessica for future pet sitting needs!

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.
