Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Jessie. I am obsessed with dogs, but haven't made the leap into ownership yet. I'm currently in the process of saving up an appropriate emergency fund for my own doggo, so I figured what better way to contribute to that effort than by getting my fix by loving on everyone else's dogs?? I also love cats! I have my own and, frankly, she could do with some competition bc she doesn’t sit on my lap NEARLY enough. I come from a family of dog lovers and I can't remember a time where we didn't have a dog in our home. I'm equal parts active and lazy, which makes me a great option regardless of your dog's energy level. Got a hyper pooch? Great, we're going on a (slow) jog. Got a couch potato? Cool, we're sunbathing for a bit before going back inside. I work from home! So if you have a baby who needs frequent potty breaks, I welcome them because they will ensure I actually get out of the house a few times a day! The only thing I ask is that you give me an honest description of your pet when we meet. The more open and honest you are, the better prepared I can be for my visit. I want this to be a good experience for you, me, and your baby. Honestly, I want to know what your fur child is like on their WORST behavior. I promise it won't scare me away. I used to watch dogs in my home and would jokingly call it “Jessie’s Home for Naughty Bois.”
Reviews
Jessie was amazing with our French Bulldog. She has sat for him twice now. The first time she watched him he got a swollen eye and needed to go to the Vet's office. The cause was pink eye from another dog at MY house that my dog had been around. However, Jessie was quick to let me know and took him to our local vet's office. He was cared for by Jessie and loved like family. We have already rebooked her again (for the 3rd time now).
Jessie was so great with Juniper! She watched her for a week and a half over thanksgiving and I always felt assured that Juniper was in great hands. She sent daily picture updates, took Junie outside on long walks, and made Junie feel loved. Will definitely book again!
Took excellent care of my dog Izzy and sent updates. My dog was happy and healthy after her weekend with Jessie and her boyfriend
Jessie is a great sitter! She looked after Luci for 4 days, kept us informed and took pictures (though Luci doesn’t move from the couch often). We’ll definitely use Jessie in the future.

Happy to do walks, feedings, clean up accidents, administer medicines, etc. For years, I sat my sister’s cat with diabetes, so I can do injections.
Information Jessie D. would like to know about your pet
I love any and all bulldog breeds, but the best dog is the dog at your side, amirite?? Let me know about your dog's energy levels and any quirks he or she has. I'm a hypochondriac with pets. I assume everything is an ailment. Can't be too safe, right?
A typical day
I’m gunna take your advice on this one. If your doggo needs a runaround, give me a heads up and I’ll wear my gym clothes so we can jog. If they’re old or lazy, I’m just as happy to sit outside with them so we both get out of the house.

I own my own business and work from home. I need more reasons to get away from my desk and take a walk! Am I walking your dog or is your dog walking me? The world may never know.
