Highlights
Pet care experience
The pawfect match
Growing up in the countryside on a farm, I have never not had dogs, from working dogs to rescue dogs I have grown up with a range of fury siblings. My first job age 13 was in a kennel opposite my house where I returned to work each summer until I was 17, the kennel was also home to a greyhound rescue, and working with the dogs in the kennel helped me learn more about dog behaviour and gave me exposure to a range of breeds. Sadly my 3 family dogs have all passed from old age over the past two years and during that time I moved to Scotland. This has left such a big paw print shaped hole in my heart and I cherish any time I can have with dogs. More recently I have been joining my friend on her walks as a dog walker in Edinburgh which has inspired me to start dog walking & pet sitting myself locally to me.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden which is shared with two neighbouring dogs who love to play. I live near a park also which is perfect for dogs to run around and soak in all the smells.
Ratings and reviews
Jess looked after my puppy one day a week from when he was 12 weeks old until 6 months old and he loved his time with auntie Jess! Jess sent update photos which I loved too.
Jess is a natural with animals, she has an energy that just draws them in and she manages to make a furry friend wherever she goes. She is patient, kind natured, and incredibly caring. She has helped out with my dogs on many occasions and I always feel at peace knowing my babies are well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Jess to any pet parent.
Jess is the most loving and attentive dog minder. I’m a professional dog walker and will pass my dogs to Jess for home boarding and they all absolutely adore her, as do the owners. She’s my absolute go to 💖 Your pup would be lucky to have her!

Schedule
I’m currently working part time in a bar on the weekends so I have plenty of time throughout the week to look after your lovely pets! I can also be flexible with my work where needed which means I’m never stuck to a strict schedule.
