Experienced dog caretaker/huge yard
Pet care experience
Hello! I'm Jess. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and breeds. My yard is securely fenced and expansive, and my home is safe and calm. I am a volunteer and dog foster for the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter, and I also foster disabled, senior, and blind dogs for Peace of Mind Dog Rescue. I don’t have any dogs of my own at this time. I had a blind and diabetic terrier mix named Marley, but sadly he passed away due to old age last year. As a result of caring for Marley, I am skilled with insulin injections and blood glucose monitoring and can offer that as part of my services. I can crate your dog if needed or they can have free roam of the house. On most days your dog will not be left alone for longer than 2 hours at a time. I’m happy to discuss specifics. I'd love to talk and see if I can fit your needs as a pet sitter. Looking forward to meeting you and your furbaby ❤🐕
Reviews
Jessica took great care of our dog Sadie. She sent lots of pictures and videos to keep us updated. I appreciated her giving our sweet dog lots of extra attention. She’s a person I fully trusted with this important job. I would highly recommend her!
I'm a person who is skeptical of reviews that are too positive, so let me assure you that this one is totally deserved... Jessica was fantastic. She came to meet Shandy on short notice, and took excellent care of her during our vacation, going out of her way to make it easy on us and sharing photos along the way. We super appreciate it.

Safety, trust & environment
My yard is fenced and secured, and can be accessed by the dog during all hours a day if they need to due to health issues. I am careful not to leave doors open or leave any hazards out. I have lots of toys and healthy dog treats. I have dog beds of various sizes.
