Pet care experience

Animals, Nature, Art 💕

I’ve been pet-sitting animals for 10+ years across Saskatchewan and now in Nova Scotia. I started providing daily dog walks 3 years ago and have loved every second of it ever since! I love to take a group of dogs out to the woods for some off leash adventures around the HRM. For pups who are less social or not trained off-leash, I am happy to keep them on a leashed walk around their own neighbourhood! I love animals deeply and I take great pride in caring for the animals I have privilige of caring for. I have built great bonds with the families I work with 💕 I’m very grateful for the furry friends I’ve made over the years and the families that have trusted me to provide care! 🥰 Please don’t hesitate to ask questions if you’re looking for a sitter/walker 🥰 Thank you for your time!

Safety, trust & environment

I meet all owners/pets before the first stay/walk so I can meet the owners/pets & we can go over any questions before we decide to go ahead with booking 😊. I am married and do provide locations for stays to my husband in case of emergency. He does not stay with me for house stays, as he takes care of our own kitties and pup when I’m away for a pet-sitting service! 🥰

House Sitting • Jun 27, 2023

We recently went away for two weeks and were very nervous because we have never been away from our girls for more than a few days. Both are senior dogs and one is quite nervous around new people. Jessica was absolutely amazing. She sent multiple photos/updates/videos everyday. Jessica also takes amazing photos! She really put our minds at ease and made our trip worry free. We could not be happier with how well she took care of our girls and our house. Thank you so much!

Jessica was amazing with my Floof! Floof is nervous of strangers but Jessica was very respectful of Floof’s space. I think Floof appreciated that because after a couple of days Floof was asking for pets, belly rubs and giving kisses. It was hard being away for work for a week (we are never apart as she has severe separation anxiety) but it was easier knowing Jessica was taking care of her, and all the updates were great. Especially since Halifax had forest fires while I was away. I’ve come home to a physically and mentally safe and happy Floof.

Jessica is amazing!! We went away for 9 days and she stayed at our house taking care of our 7 year old husky Dakota, and pet hamster. She was in contact daily with pictures and updates so we could see how Dakota was doing which was great to see how well she was being taking care of. Jessica went above and beyond and took great care of our home and it was spotless when we got back! Would absolutely recommend her to anyone that needs a sitter!! She is great and we will definitely ask her again!

Jessica was so amazing! This was our first time leaving our cats' care in the hands of a stranger. Our minds were at ease with Jessica's daily messages and photos and we knew our fur babies were being well-cared for. Her messages were very detailed and positive. She respected our nervous cat's space while catering to our needy cat's cries for attention (lol). She went above and beyond and we couldn't be more happy with the experience. We look forward to having Jessica to trust with our cats when we go away in the future. Thank you, Jessica!!
