I'm happy to take cues from you, do you like your dog to sit at every street crossing? Cool, we can do that. Are you working on pulling less? I've helped friends lessen their dogs pulling and I'm happy to work on that or take the walking routes you suggest. I'm happy to give any treats or meds you have prepared and I can adapt to your dog's style and needs.

Pet care experience

I've had 4 of my own dogs and have experience with new adoptees, terminally ill dogs, seniors, breeds of all energies, and I am attuned to their needs. I've fostered many dogs through various rescues and I'm trusted by friends and neighbors to dog sit and walk. I love dogs and nerd out about all kinds, but happy dogs are my favorite dogs.

Jess is my go-to when I need a somebody to watch my shy pup or check in on my cats. She's patient, caring and reliable. I never have to worry whether my animals are being well-taken-care-of when she is on the job.

Jes is amazing! She LOVES dogs and it shows. I am always impressed with how much individual attention she pays to each dog she comes across; even in casual settings, she has a knack for learning each dog's personality and preferences. She goes out of her way to give each dog the kind of play and care that they need and want, including creative outings, city walks, time in nature, and new enrichment. Jes is reliable, responsible, and knows a lot about best practices in training and care. Highly recommend her!
