15yr vet tech/ER Always Home

Pet care experience

There has not been a time in the almost 40yrs of my life in which i can remember not having a dog, cat or random other pet I’ve come across and rescued ... I have worked in the animal medical field for the last 17yrs, starting as receptionist and quickly promoted to kennel staff where I cared for anywhere from 1-20 pets daily. I unexpectedly was given a chance to train to be a vet tech and I never looked back. I have worked in emergency, alternative care, critical care, and surgery. I have a special place in my heart for the fearful, anxious and aggressive fur babies. If any seniors need medications, subcutaneous fluids or insulin I can assure you no doses will be missed, even if they are tricky I am a step ahead. I’m am a stay at home mom to a energetic animal loving 1yr old girl …. I have a lot of time on my hands to make sure your fur baby gets the best care during their stay. I have a flexible schedule and am very reliable. If you choose me to care for your fur baby they will get daily walks around the neighborhood, lots of outside time to play (weather pending) and TONS of love, cuddles and TLC!!!

Jessica was amazing! Her love of animals is obvious, and she really put me at ease when I explained our situation. Our older dog can get a little weird with other dogs, but once we talked it over it was clear that Jessica is prepared to handle any situation that could arise. I probably have worse separation anxiety than our dogs (lol) but I felt so much better when Jessica sent me some pictures soon after showing that they were settling in. I felt bad taking the puppy back because it was clear she was having so much fun. Jessica was an incredible host and I highly recommend her. We'll be back!

She did awesome with my guy! I contacted her short notice and she did everything she could to work with my schedule. Sent me many videos and pics of my boy having a good time with her. Definitely would recommend and considering her again if I need another sitter ?

Fantastic experience! Can't recommend Jessica highly enough. Jessica provided regular updates, photos, took our dog for fun hikes and swims, gave her a bath before coming home and was so easy to work with!

I have a big back yard that is 3/4 of the way fenced …. I use long tie out leashes so your pup can run, jump and play as much as they want.

Information Jessica P. would like to know about your pet

I have a special place in my heart for the special needs/senior pets. I am comfortable and confident in caring for these babies. They may not enjoy long walks on a trail in the sun but maybe a few laps around a shaded park or picnic area. Prior to caring for your fur baby we can go over in details any meds, routines, concerns or schedules you have.

A typical day

The basics and any requests that you have I am sure I will be able to make it happen … lots of love and attention and if permitted tons of treats :)
