Pet care experience
Your Own Doggy Poppins
Hi there, fellow pet parents! I’m Jess, a remote worker and lifelong animal lover with extensive hands-on experience in dog walking, pet sitting, and doggy day care. I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes each animal unique. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent attention, companionship, and a calm, loving environment throughout the day. I’m very active and love spending time outdoors, whether that’s long walks, relaxed neighborhood strolls, or higher-energy outings, always tailored to your pet’s needs. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My mission is to provide the perfect balance of exercise, mental stimulation, affection, and structure, helping your pet feel happy, comfortable, and safe. For social pups, I also have friendly dogs who enjoy making new friends in a supervised and positive setting. In addition to dogs, I have experience caring for cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, bunnies, rats, fish, parakeets, cockatiels, and reptiles such as lizards. I also have experience with select exotic pets, where care is permitted and appropriate, and I’m always happy to discuss specific needs in advance. I have a friendly pup named Hazel. For housesitting stays, Hazel stays with her gmom, allowing me to focus completely on your pets, their routines, and their care. Above all, your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions and treat every animal as if they were my own. I would love to meet you and your furry (or feathered!) family members. Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet, I look forward to providing loving, reliable, and attentive care. My number one priority is the safety of the animals in my care. I would love to meet you and your furry friend(s). Let's arrange a meet-and-greet!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment and carefully follow all care instructions. I closely supervise interactions, maintain secure spaces, respect each pet’s routine, and communicate clearly with pet parents to ensure trust and peace of mind. I also have a secure, gated backyard for safe outdoor play.
Ratings and reviews
Jess is the most organized, responsible dog/house sitter I have had - and I have had a lot. My two golden retrievers loved her and my house looked better when I got home than it did when I left! I have already rebooked her. Highly recommend.
We highly recommend Jessica, she is the best sitter we’ve ever had! She consistently went above and beyond during the week she stayed with our dog, Beckham. She is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator. We have a high energy dog who does best sticking to his routines and takes a little while to warm up to new sitters. She told us beforehand that she will always do what is best for the dog and they bonded instantly! We look forward to having Jessica back soon!
I cannot recommend Jessica highly enough! She did an amazing job taking care of my lab, Daisy. Throughout the house sitting, she kept me updated and sent adorable photos, which gave me great peace of mind. Jessica went above and beyond with Daisy, ensuring she was happy and well-cared for. It was clear that Daisy loved spending time with her. I will definitely continue booking her without hesitation!
Jess has taken such great care of Marshmallow and Sunny, for years and I truly wouldn’t trust anyone else with them! She has done it all from pet sitting while we’re out of town, boarding when we were renovating, and regular walks and every time I have felt confident with them under her care. She is incredibly reliable, communicative, and always keeps me updated with photos and check-ins which gives me complete peace of mind. My pups absolutely adore her and get so excited every time they see her. Sunny has so much energy, and she knows exactly how to keep up with her, while also being incredibly patient and gentle with Marshmallow, who is slower paced. She truly treats them like her own and pays close attention to the details ,from their routines to making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. She always leaves the sweetest welcome back cards for us when we return from out of town. My daughter loves them. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares and she consistently goes above and beyond. I’m a repeat client and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for trustworthy, top quality care for their pets.
Jessica is an absolute blessing! We never worried a minute while we were out on vacation because she stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, eliminating the stress of leaving our puppy and house behind. Jessica is trustworthy, friendly and dependable. Ozzy, our pup, loves her! She took him out on walks and made sure that he ate his meals. She cared for Ozzy like he was her own. She even gave Ozzy lots of playtime with her dog which made our pup super happy! I highly recommend Jessica, she is the BEST!!!
We've had Jessica watch Pebbles a couple times now and couldn't be happier. Pebbles is 165 lb English Mastiff with energy and some tentativeness but does great with Jessica and is always happy to see her! Took great care of our home as well and takes amazing pictures when keeping us posted. Will certainly use her again! Thanks so much!

Schedule
I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, and I structure my routine around each pet’s needs to ensure consistency, exercise, and companionship.
