Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure I set aside dedicated time for each visit so pets stay on a consistent schedule. I have more availability during the week, especially for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. My weekends are more limited, but I can still accommodate certain requests with notice. I focus on being reliable, attentive, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for while their owner is away.

Safety, trust & environment

I always follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owner is away. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and I always prioritize their safety and comfort. I also provide updates with messages and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

Information Jessica W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there is anything specific I should know about your dog. Meds, feeding times, treats, allergies, etc. so we can have the best time!

A typical day

I like to keep pets engaged and happy based on their personality and energy level. For more active dogs, I enjoy walks, playtime, and games like fetch or tug. For calmer pets, I focus on giving them attention, affection, and a relaxed environment where they feel comfortable. I also like to include enrichment activities like basic training, interactive toys, or just spending quality time with them so they’re not bored while their owner is away. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, have fun, and stay mentally and physically stimulated. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so I make sure each visit includes both care and fun.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Jess 😊 I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and currently have multiple 5-star reviews from happy pet owners. I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m especially available during the week for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins, and I’m great at sticking to routines like feeding schedules, potty breaks, and exercise. I adjust my care based on each pet’s personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more relaxed and need a calm environment. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and treat both the space and the pet with care. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet, and to give them the same level of care and attention they’re used to.

Jessica was super communicative and responsive. She respected the space and did a great job following directions. Our pets loved her, and I look forward to her watching them and our house again. Highly recommend 🥰
