Vet tech & future vet
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Jessika! I have 5 years experience working as a veterinary technician, including working in an ER. I am currently in veterinary school at UF, and pet-sitting on the side. I’ve never met a dog that I didn’t get along with, and that includes timid, senior, and aggressive pets. My services are catered to specific clients and pets. I’m athletic and happy to take high energy dogs on runs but also willing to stop by every few hours to give an elderly toy breed pup a potty break. Some people have me stop by a couple times a week for dog walking, while others just have me spend the night if they’re going out of town. Whatever the case, I would love to meet your pet(s) and see what works best for you! Services include: Dog Walking, Daily Visits, Potty Breaks, Dog Park Trips, Pet Taxi, Dog Beach Trips, Kitty Care, Overnights, and more (:

Safety, trust & environment
I make sure to follow owners instructions regarding leash walking (ie harness only, or gently leader). Additionally, I’d never leave a dog in a yard unsupervised.
Information Jessika R. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preference, but would love to know about your pet’s personality. As a vet tech, it’s nice to know medications, special dietary needs, dog aggression, if he's an escape artist, favorite toys, anything else
A typical day
As long as you're comfortable with it, I'm happy to take your pet on long walks, dog park visits, beach trips, and anything else we can think of while you're away. If there’s a nearby nature trail, that would be super fun for both of us!

I am a student at UF college of Veterinary Medicine, so my schedule and ability varies depending on my school workload. I’m only pet-sitting on the side.
