Availability

I'm a stay-at-home-mom (prior teacher, but we have a bunch of little kids), and I'm always in town running errands and doing school drop-offs. I'm looking for exercise, and I love animals, so it seems like a beautiful fit. I started off with house sitting on my profile, but I took it off because I cannot to commit to sitting with them all day long because it takes a lot from my family. I can, however, spend hours with them at a time, and spend the night, but can't stay the whole time.

Safety, trust & environment

I know not to overfeed an animal; understand that exercise keeps them out of trouble; can easily crate your dog, and keep everyone fed, watered, and loved while you're away. I take pride in the fact that I am a quality person with high morals. I am too old for any hoodrat ish, and if you leave a vacuum and/or cleaning supplies out for me, I will use them for you. I am here for people and families, but I do prefer animals LOL

Information Jessica O. would like to know about your pet

I like to know their temperament prior, and any history that would affect our relationship. If your animal has stranger aggression, that should be said PRIOR if we have not done a meet and greet due to short notice booking. I would like to know their likes and dislikes, including sounds, smells, people, etc. Do understand that if your pet pees in my house more than once, I tack on a cleaning fee.

A typical day

We will run, play, roll, play fetch, catch, get in on some yoga together. I enjoy giving kind words of affirmation, such as who's the goodest baby, hims a good boy, hers a pretty puppy, etc. My neighborhood is great for walking, and they can cruise the golf course.

Pet care experience

I have raised or taken care of animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, sheep, cows, chickens, etc. You name it, if it was on a farm, I've helped to take care of it since I was a wee lass. I have a special place in my heart for senior kitties and doggos. We had a dog with Addison's Disease, so I am well versed in administering medicine orally, as well as subcutaneously. Our bearded dragon recently passed away, but she lived 9 years, which is decent in bearded dragon life! I do enjoy beardies and reptiles in general.

Jessica and her family were so great to our dog while we were away! She was well cared for, entertained, and happy when I picked her up. No complaints. Thanks, Jessica and family!
