The Nanny You've Been Looking For!

Pet care experience

Hey Fellow Pet-Lovers! ⇾ My name is Jessica, and I'm a work-from-home mental health therapist here in Columbia. I'm fortunate to have a large amount of flexibility and free time during the weekdays and I have loved filling that time with dog walking & other pet care devices. Taking care of others (including animals) is my passion! I have worked with Rover for over 4 years and had the wonderful opportunity to meet and care for a variety of pets, just like yours. ⇾ I have 3 cats and 1 dog who are nothing less to me than my own children! I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, ferrets, guinea pigs, horses, and even goats since I was 5. I grew up learning to love and care for animals just as I do for my friends and family and have spent my life fostering my love animals ever since. ⇾ I treat your pet as I would my own - this means the ultimate amount of belly rubs, attention, & love while I'm watching over them! I am committed to providing you with a service that you are extremely satisfied with. I take the responsibility of caring for your loved one very seriously and provide optimum care to your pet, just as I want and expect for my own. I know how important my companions are to me and I want to offer you peace of mind for yours while they're in my care! ⇾ Every animal is unique and special -- I want to know all about what your fur baby needs to be adequately taken care of! If possible, I love to do a meet and greet before our arranged service where we can discuss details of care for your pet and provide an opportunity for me to meet your pet so they can feel safe and happy in my care. ⇾ I love to send pictures and videos to owners who like to stay updated on their loved one to provide you with updates and a reason to smile during your busy day. I am also happy to do any other small housekeeping tasks while I care for your pet, such as water plants, bring in any mail/packages, or anything else that makes my service more convenient to you. I am very flexible when it comes to cancellations, so you will never be charged for any last minute changes -- I get it, life happens! I truly love connecting with animals and would love the opportunity help take care of yours! ⇾ My AVAILABILITY: - I am available for dog walking & check-ins from Monday to Friday anytime between 9:00am and 5:00pm. - I am available for overnight stays at your home or mine any night from Monday to Thursday. This all depends on my current availability and what you're looking for. I am always happy to discuss your needs on an individual basis and accommodate your schedule! ⇾ Please feel free to contact me with any questions and concerns you may have! I am dedicated to providing honest, reliable communication as a part of my services. Thank you, I hope to meet you and your beloved furry family members soon! - Jessica T.

Jessica is an absolutely amazing dog walker! She’s so sweet with my pup who can be a bit of a handful. On days when it’s rainy, she tosses the ball around with him in my apartment. She sends lots of pictures during the walk and fills up my dog’s water dish after their walk. Would highly recommend Jessica if you’re looking for a reliable and quality walker!

Jessica has been amazing to our pup! Daisy is so excited to see her everyday to go on her lunchtime walk. She always leaves updates and has been patient with the puppy learning process :)

Information Jessica T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I can account for! This information helps me know how to give your pet the best treatment and care. I always keep an open line of communication with my clients so they feel free to check in any time on their loved one.

A typical day

In my care, your pup will be provided with multiple walks and potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a wonderfully cared for apartment complex that has miles of sidewalk and natural outdoor elements combined. This also leads to a nearby trail which is great for longer adventures! While inside, I like to keep your pup stimulated and entertained with toys, interaction, and lots of personal attention and love.
