Trusted Care, Lots of Love 🐾💕
**Hi! I’m Jessica 🐾** I’m a lifelong animal lover living in Delray Beach, originally from Rhode Island. I moved to Florida in 2016 and recently stepped away from my corporate career to create a more flexible lifestyle and spend more time doing the things I genuinely love — including being around animals! I’ve always had a natural connection with both dogs and cats. While I don’t currently have pets of my own because my living situation doesn’t allow it right now, I’ve been lucky enough to be trusted by friends and family to care for their pets many times over the years. I’ve cared for a Chihuahua mix, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever puppy, and multiple cats, including fostering two of my friend’s cats for an entire year. I’ve also provided drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care for friends’ dogs. In addition to my pet-care experience, I have a background in property management and home watch. I understand the importance of being responsible, observant, and respectful when entering and leaving someone’s home. You can feel confident that I’ll help keep your home secure by being mindful of doors, gates, alarms, lights, and any specific home-access instructions you provide. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and shy or anxious animals. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely — from feeding and walks to playtime, litter boxes, potty breaks, and anything else that helps your pet feel comfortable and secure. I’m also comfortable walking dogs in the South Florida weather and will always prioritize their safety and comfort, including adjusting walks when temperatures or conditions call for it. My approach is pretty simple: **I want your pet to feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away.** I’ll send plenty of photos and updates so you don't have to wonder how they're doing, and I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I’d want from someone looking after mine. For now, I’m focusing on **dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats**. I’m not offering overnight stays at this time, as I’d like to get to know my clients and their pets first and build that trust naturally. And if I could have my dream pets someday? An Italian Greyhound and a house full of tuxedo cats. 🐕🖤🐈⬛ I’d love to meet you and your pets!

Safety, trust & environment
I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I follow each pet’s routine and your instructions closely, while making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention during my visit. For walks, I’m mindful of the weather and your pet’s individual needs, especially in the South Florida heat. During drop-ins, I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed according to their routine, have a clean litter box or a chance to go outside, and get plenty of playtime and companionship. I’m also comfortable with shy, anxious, senior, and puppy pets and understand that some animals need a little extra patience to feel comfortable with someone new. I’ll always respect their boundaries and let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’ll treat your home with the same respect I give your pets, and I’m happy to keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident that everything is going well while you’re away. 🤍
Ratings and reviews
Jessica has watched Zoe for my wife and I many times. From a puppy of just over 8 weeks to adult Jessica has been a reliable caregiver when life or work got in the way and we needed help. Jessica followed instructions and was respectful towards our routines with Zoe. She was trustworthy in our home and I would without a question call on her again.
Jessica is one of the most responsible and caring people I know. She has grown up with cats and has always had such a natural love for animals. She is incredibly warm, attentive, trustworthy, and dependable, and I would feel completely comfortable leaving any pet of mine in her care. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a loving and responsible pet caregiver!
Jessica has cared for my pets several times, and I’ve always felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care. Animals seem to naturally gravitate toward her — she’s honestly like a little Snow White! 🐾 She’s attentive, responsible, and genuinely loves spending time with animals. She’s taken care of my cats and dogs for both drop-ins and longer stays, always making sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. She’s also great at following their individual routines and noticing the little things that make them feel at ease. I never have to worry when Jessica is caring for my pets, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving. 🤍

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule and am able to build my days around pet care, which allows me to be available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I enjoy having a routine and being able to dedicate time to giving pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. 🐾
