Safety, trust & environment

Housesitting includes me staying overnight at your home. I will be with your pet a minimum of 19 hours per day. Animals feel safest in their own environment, plus you have the peace of mind knowing that a professional pet sitter is there to provide them with the best care possible. Housesitting also includes two walks per day, play and cuddle time, maintenance of your pet’s regular food and schedule, and basic oral medication administration. If your pet has additional or special needs, please let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate them.

Information Jessica S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know as much as you can about your dog's personality and energy level. How are they around other people? How do they react to other dogs? Also let me know if you go away on a regular basis and how your dog has reacted in the past. Please let me know about any issues they have with food, what kind of food they like, if you have them on a regular schedule, and what you give them in terms of treats. Please let me know of any health issues, and any medication they are taking. Overall, I want as much information as possible so that I may maintain your pet's routine and schedule while you're away.

A typical day

As a dog walker, I only do individual walks (multiple dogs if from the same household). Your dog gets my full attention and isn't forced to socialize. I have experience with reactive and fearful dogs, and have a preference for working with dogs from rescue backgrounds.

Responsible Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Welcome to my profile! Having lived in Toronto all my adult life, I have a love for this city, for hiking its ravine system, parks and trails, and for the dogs that share them with us. I’ve now been working with Rover for six years, and along the way I became a certified professional pet sitter, having first obtained this designation in 2023. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR and have a general knowledge of positive reinforcement training methods. Prior to working with Rover, I regularly cared for the pets of family and friends. Having been an animal lover since childhood, I’ve also been the owner of cats and rabbits. Becoming a Rover pet sitter has been a great opportunity to learn more about the animals I love, and I look forward to meeting you and your pets. I have special rates for stays of longer than 10 days or 21 days, as well as for the care of small animals (rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters) and birds. Please contact me for more details.

Very happy with Jessica’s care of Patches. I can see having Jessica care for Patches for a day, before I go away overnight for a few days is going to work out well. He definitely became more comfortable with her as the day went on.

Jessica was a lovely pet and house sitter! She sent us lots of updates and photos while we were away, so we knew our boy Beaux was being well looked after. She is an excellent communicator and took very good care of our home. We would definitely book Jessica again for our next trip!

Jessica is a wonderful pet and house sitter. Her calm demeanor is a balm for both anxious pets and their parents. She is professional, careful to review instructions about pet needs, and sent lots of photos and updates as requested. Otis and Willie were relaxed when we returned, and our time away was worry-free.

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.
