Pet care experience

We walk the walk, and bark the bark

What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals comes from raising my own dogs, especially my sweet girl, Roxi, whom I was fortunate to have from the time she was a puppy until she crossed the Rainbow Bridge in February 2026 at 15 years old. Caring for her through every stage of life gave me firsthand experience with senior dog care, medication schedules, mobility assistance, and the extra patience, compassion, and love that aging pets deserve. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding routines, administering oral medications, providing potty breaks, and recognizing when a dog's behavior or health seems out of the ordinary. I understand that every dog has a different personality, energy level, and comfort needs, and I adapt my care to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. For puppies, I'm happy to reinforce the training and routines you're already working on, including crate training, potty schedules, basic commands, and positive reinforcement. I know consistency is important, and I'll follow your instructions to help keep your puppy on track. You'll also receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and in caring hands. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

Jessica couldn’t be any sweeter. We have a 12 year old Great Dane, and certainly no longer an easy dog to take care of (although sweet!) Jessica went above and beyond to make him comfortable and happy. So much so he didn’t want to leave!!! Not enough good things to say about Jessica, her husband, or Capone. Highly recommended 😍

I highly recommend Jessica! She took excellent care of my two dogs and gave them so much love. Her backyard is big enough for them to go outside and play, and she kept us updated the whole time by sending us lots of photos and videos! Thank you, Jessica!!

Jessica was so great. Luna had a wonderful time staying and playing with another dog staying with Jessica. She didn't want to come home when I picked her up!

Schedule

Pet care fits well into my schedule because I work a hybrid full-time position, which allows me flexibility throughout the week. I carefully manage my calendar and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, ensuring every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it's morning walks, evening visits, overnight stays, or weekend care, I plan my schedule around each pet's needs. I believe reliability and consistency are just as important as love and affection, so I make it a priority to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible.
