Overnight Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

I am a married mother with a 12 year old daughter and a 15 year old son. I also have 2 cats and a sweet 6 year old pit mix. Animals and animal rescue are my passion and I have been watching friends' and neighbors' dogs in my home for years. I have a fenced in backyard and my cats and dog are good with dogs. I would be willing to host dogs for over night stays, weekends or week-long vacations. Why I love dog sitting I have loved dogs since I was born! My mother is a hopeless dog rescuer just like me and I have always had multiple dogs in my home. Meet my pets I have 2 cats and 1 dog About my yard My back yard is completely fenced in. There is a long flat grassy area and a big hilly area for them to run. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering oral medications.

My dog has stayed with Jessica on several occasions and our dogs have become bestest buddies over the course of these stays. Jessica is always responsive. My dog has a tendency to be a picky eater and Jessica was communicative and helped to troubleshoot her picky eating while we were away. I can tell my dog has a great time as she is always reluctant to leave her favorite home away from home. Absolutely recommend!

Perfect. Jessica and her husband were awesome. We took a spur of the moment trip and they were great, welcomed our dog Bailey into their home and she apparently had a great time playing with their dog Penny! Would definitely use them again.

We were very comfortable with having Jessica watch our pup for the weekend. He had a great time playing with Penny and was well taken care of. We would definitely book with her again and recommend her to others.

Jessica took great care of my dog while I was away for the weekend. I could tell she let her make herself at home and my dog was happy and healthy when I picked her up. I'd recommend Jessica to anyone!

Information Jessica R. would like to know about your pet

Dogs that I sit for have to get along with cats, dogs, and children. They have to be house trained. Although my backyard is fenced in, I live on the corner of a fairly busy road, so escape artists might not be a good fit.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks If you are comfortable with it, I can take your dog on walks at the trails that are less than a mile from my house. I can keep them on leash or let them run free, depending on your preference. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep in my bedroom on the floor on a dog bed or in bed with me (depending on size). Time I'll spend with your dog Your dog will only be alone for short periods of time on the weekdays. I have a flexible work schedule and can stop home often. On the weekends, someone is always at the house
