Information Jessie R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know ahead of time if you’re dog is not house broken, a chewer, not friendly with other dogs, need medication, have special needs, or any other specific requests you have for your dogs! If you would like me to bathe your dog before they go back home, please let me know and I can let you know my price. The price will depend on the size, fur length, weight, and what all you want done. I am able to bathe, ear clean, trim nails, clean hair from paw pads, extra brush out, and express anal glands. Also, please let me know if you need me to drop off or pick up your pup and we can discuss pricing for that as well.

A typical day

I love to spend time with the pups and give them a loving home away from home. I make accommodations for each dog depending on their specific needs. I live in a neighborhood with plenty of places to take walks and explore. I love feeding dogs in fun ways including using different slow feeders, kongs, regular bowls, training, etc. to encourage mental stimulation. I love taking all the pups on field trips, as long as it is okay with the owners. My pups and I also love having treat time at least once a day!

Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 13 and worked at a boarding facility for over a year gaining experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I also ran my own private business dog sitting for a few years and would do things like bathe, walk, and feed the family’s pets. I have two dogs and two cats at home. I can only take dogs that are house-trained, friendly with other animals, friendly with people, and not chewers. I have also worked with goats, chickens, hamsters, bearded dragons, and cats.

I appreciated Jessie taking the time to meet and get to know my dog, Boone, in advance of his stay. She also sent an update during the weekend with a picture to assure us that our guy was in good hands and having fun. When we picked up Boone, he had a smile on his face! Jessie is kind and really cares about all the pets she sits.

Jessie was fantastic! She was friendly, answered all of my questions quickly and thoroughly, and sent me updates and photos throughout Norman's stay. We look forward to work with her again. 10/10 would recommend!
