About: Even as a baby I have always been around animals, and when I started to crawl and sit up my first playmates was a grey rescue cat and a old rottweiler. As I grew up I became more of a animal lover, showing no fear believing that every animal deserve love and to be treated right I currently do not have a job besides helping watching my niece once in awhile, while my parents are at work and I will soon being enrolling in college part time I live on a 160 acre farm, with open fields, a lake and plenty of space to play. A very long drive way, so it there will always be distance between us and a main road. I also have three pug-chihuahua of my own, who will either love to play with your pet or simply just leave them be, the dogs are fine with cats, seeing as I have two of my own, the cats will hide at first until they know your pet better. And lastly I have a rabbit who is shy and curious. None have any of my animals have ever been aggressive and all my cats and dogs are fixed. But if needed I can separate and crate your pet if needed.

About: My schedule is extremely flexible so I'm able to drop in last minute when needed. I've had my dogs since they were puppies (they're now 10.5&11.5) so I've really gone through most major stages with them. I'll love your dogs the way I love my own. I'm extremely flexible. I own my own small business selling handmade items online so I truly make my own schedule. I never work on weekends and I'm flexible on weekdays and can fit your animals schedule into my day. I have a fenced yard at my own house. I can either let your dogs out in an enclosed yard or leash them for walks and potty breaks. Any cats boarded in my house will have an entire guest room to themself if they are not comfortable around dogs. My dogs have been around cats multiple times and are very cat friendly.

About: My family has always had three dogs at a time, and most of them were rescues. I have been a dog lover since I was little. Dogs naturally love me. I am between jobs right now, and I want to fill that time doing what I love. Unfortunately, where I currently live does not allow dogs. I follow strict care schedules and have experience with medicated dogs. I am not trained to give injections but I'm willing to learn. My dog used to take seizure medicine daily.


About: I have experience working in an animal shelter. I have dealt with a variety of dogs. My daily activities there involved giving medication, cleaning, walking, and socializing dogs. I was also involved with running humane calls for dogs and catching stray dogs. You won't have to worry about your pets getting their meds on time or worry about accidents in the house. I have had dogs as pets for most of my life. My daily routine with pet care involves feeding, exercise, potty breaks, grooming, medication, play time, and communicating with the owner.

About: I have a background in caring for exotic and household pets. I have had cats growing up ever since I was little and would find strays in our yard, to the current 3 cats in our home now. I had a beagle for over 15 years, and have experience working with dogs in a boarding kennel within a veterinary clinic. I have experience working with a variety of animals including tropical saltwater fish, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals ranging from crocodiles to sloths and penguins. I currently have 2 lizards, a chameleon and a gecko as well. I have a background in basic training for dogs, birds and reptiles including target feeding and basic commands. I would love to come take care of your furry or scaley friends! I currently have 3 cats and 2 lizards that are taken care of on a daily basis. Each animal has their own schedule and routine that vary from eachother, so extra care is often times needed. I also recently worked for an aquarium for the past 6 years, which I was a supervisor that worked up to 12 hour days taking care of basic and advanced care needs for the animals in our facility. I can give basic medications if needed or bottle feed/syringe. I can let out your dog on a runner or lead if that is preferred. Walks are also fine, given proper training based on the specific needs of the dog. I can provide playtime and enrichment to help with extra energy that needs burned off as well.

About: I am a lover of all animals, most importantly cats and dogs. I have had dogs my entire life, and frequently pet-sit my childhood dog, Bella, for my mom. Bella has some medical conditions that require extra special care, so I am well versed in medication administration for dogs. In adulthood, I started adopting and fostering cats and currently have 3 cats of my own- Soup, Scooter, and Spoon, and one angel cat, Stevie. My calico, Soup, I adopted when she was 5 weeks old so I can also work with baby kittens. She also has medical conditions I have to be attentive to, so I can handle medical care for cats as well :) I work seasonally, part time, so I am able to be there in the morning or night (or more!) to ensure your animal gets the best care they need. I started independently dog sitting when I was 10 for a neighbor. Ever since then, I have loved to pop in and see animals and give them love while their pet-parents are away! I am always happy to meet prior to a trip or vacation or set up a phone/zoom call to ensure you feel safe and trusting.

Jessica Z.
“From the moment we booked with Jessica, we knew our pet was in great hands. She was prompt, professional, and most importantly—kind and incredibly attentive to our pet’s needs. Jessica went above and beyond with regular updates, photos, and detailed notes that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our dog took to her right away, which says a lot because he can be a bit shy with new people. She clearly has a natural connection with animals and treats them like her own. When we came home, he was calm, happy, and well cared for—exactly what every pet parent hopes for! Jessica is reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely loves what she does. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
