Walks in your neighborhood can be routed to any specifications you have. During inclement weather, quick potty breaks can be paired with inside play time.
Information Jessica W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, has any personality quarks, or any specific activities they love. Happy to accommodate dogs that are uncomfortable on a leash, but please be as specific as possible about their triggers and / or habits. If you have read this far, you really love your dog, and are very selective about who you let care for them. Which means I love you 😁 And it means that if you request my services, I am grateful and flattered.
A typical day
Tell me what your dog likes! We can fetch, tug, wrestle, cuddle, chase…whatever your pup needs or wants. Or safety reasons, I will not take dogs to dog parks or other places your dog may interact with other dogs.

Pet care experience
***ASK ME ABOUT: Neighbor discount (20% off regular service fee within 1 mile of my home) & Regulars discount (book 10 services, get one free!) Some FAQ: I start the clock when I enter and end when I have locked the door behind me. No travel time is included in the visit. I prefer to walk the whole time, but if your dog isn’t into it, I’ll finish with play or cuddle time. I sometimes overshoot the outbound and end up going over, no big deal. Depending on your dog’s pace, I usually get up to 1.5 mile in 30 min or 3 in 60 min. If your dog is walk reluctant, with your OK, I can use treats. I also find singing to them sometimes help. I change the lyrics to pop sounds to incorporate your dogs name. It’s dorky, but a lot of dogs are into it! I will not take your dog to a dog park, even if you ask, and I will never let your dog “say hi” to another dog, even if the other owner says they know each other. This is for their safety and mine! I do sittings for regular / repeat walk clients on occasion, but I don’t offer sittings to new clients. The app doesn’t give me the option to offer this, but if you want 45 min or more than 60, just message me. I will prorate and adjust the price manually. Ok - about me! I just moved back to NC with my pittie, Fin. I’m experienced handling dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. Looking forward to giving your dog(s) the same care, affection and attention I give my baby! My 90-pound Pit has been through numerous training programs, even a boot camp. Despite all of my genuine effort, time and money, he is still a strong puller, chases squirrels with blood lust, and will try to attack other dogs. No matter your dogs’ leash aversion, triggers, or stressors, I have tricks up my sleeve to handle it. It won’t bother me and no judgement!
Reviews


Took excellent care of my boys on short notice!


Jessica did a fantastic job taking care of our dogs while we were away. One dog is nervous around new people and pretty much anybody who isn’t us, and that in turn makes our other dog anxious as well. Jessica was gentle, resourceful, and creative in managing them and their drop-in visits. She also communicated well with us, so we felt our dogs were safe and in good hands. Thank you!

Helped ensure our pup was happy and tired to be left at home without us!

I appreciated the check in's to inform me when the walk was initiated and completed. It gave me peace of mind while I was away. It was a great experience and I plan to use Rover again and hope Jessica is available for future dog walks.
