About: Since I was little, I've been caring for animals ranging from dogs and cats to fish and guinea pigs. I find so much joy in doing so that I studied both animal and wildlife sciences so I can make animal care my life. Whether in a clinical or personal setting, my clients are always pleased with the services that I provide their animals with. I'm currently a college graduate living back home as I take time before pursuing a Master's program. Because I work full-time as a veterinary assistant, my calendar is only accurate between 2-4 weeks out. However, I promise to do my best to be available to care for your pet! While I limit my pet care to my clients' homes, I do still take measures to ensure the animals' safety and wellbeing. The house doors will remain locked, I'm open to crating an animal if I'm not present, and they will be leashed at all times on walks as it is the law. Additionally I'm acquainted with plenty of veterinarians should your pet require any emergency medical attention.
About: I love animals of all sizes! I do not have pets of my own currently, but find joy in taking care of others' when I find the time! I enjoy a good walk, play, snuggle, or nap session. I currently and working part time, mostly during weekday mornings. Most other times I am free to come check in, feed, or walk your little furry friends! I am keen on following good instructions to provide the best care to your animal. The safety of your animal, your property, and myself are of the upmost importance!
About: Since I was a child, I've always been surrounded by pets of all kinds. From dogs to cats to chameleons and hamsters, I've even tended to a tortoise! From bathing and cleaning tanks to homemade pet meals, and everything in between, it won't scare me away. Between my friends and my family, I'm the one that they go to when it comes to watching their furry family members I’m currently working 5 days a week, those days vary from week to week. Typically, I work between the hours 4:00am-12:00pm. Though, sometimes those hours are shorter. The safety and health of your furry family member is a top priority of mine. Whether it is in your home or on outings, you will always be aware of our location, the times we are away, and whether there are other animals there. Also, medication & feeding times are always added to my reminders so that they aren’t missed. Above all, I will never hesitate to reach out about your pet and their needs.

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats since I was a child and have experience with pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. Growing up around animals taught me how to provide attentive care, including feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care and give pet parents peace of mind. I have experienced with administering medications, anxious, and reactive pets. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I enjoy spending time with animals and make time each day to feed, walk, play, and provide companionship. My schedule is flexible enough to accommodate pet visits and walks while maintaining a consistent routine, so pets receive the attention and care they need. I prioritize each pet's safety and comfort by carefully following the owner's instructions and maintaining their normal routine. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and closely monitor pets during walks and playtime. I also pay attention to each pet's behavior and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away.
“Jerrica was amazing with my pup! She took the time to ask questions and learn about his routine to ensure he and I were both comfortable. She was always right on time for visits and showed so much care and patience with him. My dog was given lots of cuddles and love and I’m so happy I found such a trust worthy and caring sitter for him. We will absolutely be using Jerrica’s services again and again.”

“We are so lucky to have Grace walk and spend time with our dog Teddy! She is extremely thoughtful, responsible, and a great communicator. She clearly loves animals and is committed to taking excellent care of them. Couldn’t recommend her services more highly.”

Katie took wonderful care of our cat with medical needs. She went the extra mile to make sure our cat took her medication and was able to administer IV fluids as well. She was very responsive to messages and sent photos while we were gone. Very impressed with the quality of care!

Claire took super great care of my cat and kept all areas (litter, food) clean and tidy. She’s very responsive and attentive to instructions. My shy cat very quickly felt comfortable with her. I had her care for my cat for 10 days and check ins were always detailed and consistent.

Sara M. was a WONDERFUL pet sitter for our cats! She sent us detailed comments about their behavior and eating and elimination habits, along with several photos. These daily updates helped alleviate my anxiety about leaving the cats while going on vacation, and I was able to relax and enjoy my trip more because of Sara. I will definitely use her services again!
