Dogs come first!
Pet care experience
I realized that dogs come first in my life when a small dog that I was taking care of was curled up on my lap, which prevented me from pulling out the computer keyboard tray so I could work. Faced with the choice of continuing to work or keeping the dog on my lap, I chose the dog. I do my best to tune in to each dog's personality and needs and provide them with care and affection while making them feel secure in a new environment. My own dog, Julian, is very calm and gets along with almost all dogs. Unfortunately, I am not equipped to take care of large (over 30 pounds) or highly active dogs.
Reviews
Jessica is kind and caring. She was patient with our older dog
Thank you Jessica! Charley loved his stay with you and you provided such great care to him! We will be back! :)
Great host. Very caring and responsive. Marley came home avery happy!
Jessica was the best! She sent updates and pics. She was also thorough and asked what was normal or what was not for Sasha’s first time over. Which was much appreciated!

Safety, trust & environment
We don't have a yard but we have a large deck that's completely fenced in. I allow dog guests to roam around the house and find the place where they feel most comfortable and safe - whether it's on the floor, couch, or bed. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your precious companions!
Home
Information Jessica W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavior issues. Also let me know if he/she enjoys riding in the car. Thanks!
A typical day
I normally take my dog and dog guests on one long-ish walk in the morning, a shorter walk in the late afternoon and a very brief walk in the evening before we go to bed. In addition, I leave the back door open so they can go outside on the deck whenever they want.
Services
Jessica can host
Availability
I work part-time from home so unless I'm doing shopping or errands I'm usually here. If your dog enjoys riding in the car and the weather is OK, I might take him/her with me when I run errands; otherwise, it's rare they'll be left home alone for more than an hour or two.
