About Jess
Passion and Purpose...
My name is Jessica and I provide professional pet sitting and dog walking services. I am a huge animal lover and love all aspects of caring for animals. I've grown up caring for pets and they have always been my closest companions. I presently am a pit bull and guinea pig mommy and I couldn't imagine my life without my fur babies. I feel a great sense of purpose in knowing that I play a part in nurturing the happiness and overall well-being of animals.
I started off pet sitting for several family and friend's dogs over the years and found the experience very rewarding and exciting. I expanded my potential and moved beyond the scope of people I already knew to other pet parents within my community who requested help caring for their pets. I presently have many happy pet sitting and dog walking clients who can attest to my ability to provide the best care possible for their pets. I’m educated in obedience skills because I got my dog professionally trained and I continue to reinforce the skills I learned with him, and carry these skills with me when I pet sit.
I earned my master's degree in Counseling from Rowan University in 2014, I provide mental and behavioral therapy to children in their home, but my true passion in life is caring for animals!

"Jessica is a true animal lover and takes exceptional care of my sweet girl Roxy. She is reliable and kind, provides me with many updates so while I travel I don’t worry how my dog is doing enabling me to focus on my work or relaxing knowing that Roxy is being well cared for. Every household and every pet is unique and Jessica adapts her care giving to accommodate those differences and adjusts to any situation. I have had many pet sitters and none have been so professional and truly caring. I trust Jessica completely and having her to rely on is a comfort that cannot be underestimated.
I highly recommend Jessica to anyone.”
