UT Veterinary Student

Pet care experience

I am a current veterinary student at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine, where I am pursuing companion animal medicine. I have spent the past 2 years working in a vet clinic, where a majority of my experience has been working with cats and dogs of all ages and sizes. I am new to Rover, but I have 10+ years of experience pet sitting and taking care of others’ fur babies!

Jessica has looked after my cat multiple times in the last few years. She has always gone above and beyond to make sure that their needs are met and they get quality time with her. When I was away she would regularly send me videos of them playing and pictures of them cuddling on the couch. She was more than willing to accommodate her schedule as well to ensure that my cat was not left alone for extensive periods of time. I never once felt uneasy or nervous leaving because Jessica was the best pet sitter and always attentive. I cannot recommend her enough, she will always be top on my list of people to call when I am going out of town.

Jessica has taken care of our 2 cats multiple times. She is trustworthy and easy to communicate with. She has also cared for our pets professionally as a vet tech and knows how to handle different temperaments of animals. I recommend Jessica as a responsible and caring sitter.

Jessica was phenomenal when caring for my little calico, Adelaide. She checked in frequently with me and fed and cared for her while I was gone for a week on a trip. I was very impressed at her credentials as a vet tech, I felt very confident that my cat was in safe hands in anything went wrong, which thanks to Jessica it didn’t! I highly recommend her. She was very responsible and also responsive!! 🌟🌟

I LOVE JESSICA!! And even more,,, my dogs and cat love her. She has walked my dogs almost daily for the last 4 years. She also cared for them when I went out of town. She always took such good care of them. Always did extras like giving them enrichment activities so they would not be bored etc. My 2 dogs are 70lb energetic doodles. They are reactive. So, they are not the easiest, but she handles both on a walk. She also is reliable with giving meds and other medical care they needed. During the 4 Years, she has been reliable every time she was scheduled to care for them, never missing a day. Also, I had multiple neighbors comment they loved seeing her with them. They commented she had a very sweet nature with them and they could hear her walking and talking with them.. always made me know my babies were in GREAT hands!
