About: Hi! I’m Jess 😊 I’ve always had a natural, intuitive connection with animals and tend to pick up on their moods and needs quickly—even when they’re shy, anxious, or not as expressive. Because of that, animals usually warm up to me fast and feel safe in my presence. I currently have three cats of my own, including one with special needs, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, attentive, and truly tuned in caring for your pets. I don’t just follow instructions—I pay attention to how your pet is feeling, and adjust my care to make sure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and supported. For certain bookings, my fiancé Rob may assist me as a second set of hands. He’s great with animals and helps provide extra support, especially for multi-pet households or longer stays. I am always the primary caregiver, but having that extra support allows me to give even more attentive, consistent care. ⭐ What Makes Me Different ✨ Intuitive, Empathic Care I naturally tune into animals’ behavior, comfort levels, and energy. This helps me: -Recognize stress or anxiety early -Adjust my approach based on their personality -Build trust quickly, especially with shy or sensitive pets ✔️ Personalized Care Plan Before each booking, you’ll complete a quick form so I can fully understand your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. ✔️ Structured, Professional Experience I provide a welcome guide, clear expectations, and consistent communication so everything feels smooth and stress-free. I also provide a simple care form before bookings so I can fully understand your pet’s routine and preferences. ✔️ Consistent Updates You’ll receive regular updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Each visit includes updates with photos so you always know how your pet is doing. ✔️ Extra Support When Needed For certain bookings, my fiancé Rob may assist as a second set of hands. He’s great with animals and helps provide extra support, especially for multi-pet households or longer stays. I am always the primary caregiver and will always communicate in advance if he will be present. 🐾 Experience I’ve cared for: -Cats (including multi-cat households) -Dogs of all sizes and personalities -Pets with medical needs, sensitivities, and unique routines Some of my experience includes: -A blind pug with dietary restrictions -Cats with litter box sensitivities and behavioral quirks -Anxious or slow-to-warm-up pets I take the time to understand who they are, not just what they need. 🏡 House Sitting When staying in your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s environment calm, familiar, and low-stress. This is especially important for pets who: -Experience separation anxiety -Are sensitive to change -Need consistency and emotional comfort Having Rob as occasional support also allows for more flexibility and coverage when needed. 🚪 Drop-In Visits Each visit isn’t just about completing tasks—it’s about checking in on your pet’s overall well-being. I pay attention to: -Behavior changes -Energy levels -Comfort and mood So nothing gets overlooked. 🐾 My Goal To create an environment where your pet feels safe, understood, and cared for—and where you feel completely at ease knowing they’re in good hands. I work full-time remotely, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. If Wi-Fi is available, I’m often able to stay with your pet while I work, so they’re not left alone for long periods. I’m able to take breaks for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I do my best to stick closely to your pet’s normal routine. My schedule is consistent, and I’m always happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure it’s a great fit for your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and needs, and I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific preferences. I’m very detail-oriented and make sure everything is done the way you want, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s environment calm, consistent, and secure. I’m also mindful of safety during walks and daily care. I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

I have 30 years experience in pet care and my husband's family owns the only pet Cemetery in Westmoreland County. It's been in business for over 50 years. Im currently looking to take on a few clients (multiple pet families & senior/special needs pets/exotic pets) that require more of my time, training and attention. Some are just puppies lol Unfortunately, this app does not provide a description of your pet or what exactly you are looking for . If you think we would be a good match we can have a screening interview over the phone. And then I'd follow up with a meet and greet to do a hands-on assessment on your pet. And we could review the pet care needs and routine. My specialty is dogs with PTSD/behavior issues. I'm not afraid of aggressive or high maintenance dogs. Working with animals is my greatest passion. Currently available Tuesday-Saturday days, evenings and weekends. Works part time as a dog bather, working to become a dog groomer. Love spending my time w pets. Home/family setting doggie daycare/boarding & pet sitting centered around your pets specific needs. I have extensive experience in dog handling, belly rubs.

About: I have worked in the pet industry for 10 years. I have done everything from cleaning kennels, to working as a vet assistant in a clinic. I also have experience with farm and exotic animals. I currently don't have furbabies of my own, but I find them very therapeutic to interact with. Life is boring without furbabies in my life. I will enter the home as instructed by owners, and proceed in a professional manner. I will use my education as a vet assistant and future vet tech to ensure the animal(s) experience minimal upheaval of their daily routines.
“Ja’Vae was a great sitter to work with! She was quick to communicate, very flexible, and totally understanding. She sent lots of photos and ensured my pet would be in good hands for the week. I came home to both a happy cat and a very clean apartment. Thank you so much!”
“Jessica was great with our Hazel! Hazel gets a bit nervous around new people, but Jessica took the time to make her as comfortable as possible. Thanks to Jessica we were able to enjoy a weekend away worry free!”

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
