Pet care experience

Lover of all animals!

I love all types, breeds, and sizes of dogs. I have grown up with dogs and have taken care of them all of my life, typically having 2 or more at one time. Currently, I do not have any pets. Both my fur babies have recently lost their battles with cancer. I still have so much love and cuddles to give. I have a lot of energy to keep your pup entertained and feeling loved. I am also a fan of cuddling up with your fur babies for a nice nap. I am experienced in giving oral medication and injections (insulin) to all sizes of dogs and in working with senior dogs that like to lounge around the house. While I do have the most experience with dogs, I also have experience in working with cats, horses, guinea pigs, Pygmy goats, and fish if your pet care needs go outside of dogs and I am open to caring for whatever pet you have! I am very flexible and try to accommodate the needs of my clients as much as possible :) Open to pet sitting overnight stays anywhere around Smithfield, Garner, Clayton, Angier, Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Raleigh, Cary and Apex areas. Check ins must be in the Smithfield or NC State area of Raleigh.

Safety, trust & environment

I am comfortable with leash or harness walking. I have used copious amounts of different leash/harness combos so am used to just about everything. Dogs typically take to me easily as I have a very calm personality. Lots of love and cuddles is what they will expect from me!

We had a family emergency and Jessica was able to help ease the stress of finding care for our pets and provided tons of updates with them having fun!

So glad we found Jessica! She has been so much help dropping by to see our pups while we are gone. She sends pictures, as well as updates us on how they are doing and how the visit went! Would definitely recommend her to anyone! :)

Jessica is WONDERFUL!! She is always super flexible and accommodating. I can trust that my fur babies are in good hands with her, something that can be hard to find. I highly recommend her.

Jessica is the best sitter we have ever had. Our pups are still a major handful and jessica took wonderful care of them and the house. She even steam-vacuumed accident spots! Shes so great with communication and we will be utilizing her sevices from now on.

Schedule

I do have a full time job so could not provide round the clock care. However, I am available for overnight stays or drop ins if your pets are used to a house with working parents. I would be at your house on days off all day and before/after my shift on days I am working.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Jessica can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
I would like to know what temperament your dog is and how they do with other dogs and people. Is your dog social or more of a home body. What is their favorite outside activity.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
