Former Veterinary Technician

Pet care experience

My love for dogs and cats started young, so I made it my career. I worked in the veterinary field for six years! I started as a receptionist and then decided to become a veterinary technician. I have my veterinary assisting certification from Pima medical Institute. Now I am home full time with my daughter and am able to offer your pet all day company and care. I love being a Rover sitter because it allows me to still work with animals. I specialize in boarding your doggies and kitties in my home or going out to your place for drop in visits. It is important for me to provide an interactive experience for your pets and to make sure they feel comfortable. I provide playtime during my visits to burn off extra energy, as well as monitoring potty habits and food water intake. My care procedures are base on your pet’s specific needs and you will always receive updates from every visit. Of course, I am knowledgeable in administering medications in any form and can help access your pets medical needs while you are away. I am more that happy to care for pets that have medical needs or seniors that need this extra care. I know that choosing a caretaker for your pet can be a hard choice so I think meet and greets are a great way to make sure you’re comfortable and know your pet is in good hands! Pets have free range of the main house. There are gated off areas to give the resident kitties privacy.

Jessica looked after our two cats for a week. It was a great experience and our cats were well looked after the entire time. We had great check ins every day and communication was a breeze.

Jessica was great in caring for my little dog Chula. She kept in close contact with me and sent photos. I would definitely recommend her to others .

Jessica is wonderful. Our 2 Ragdoll kittens adored her. She is calm and very professional. She did a great job grooming our kitties. I will absolutely use her again. Thanks Jessica.
