Jessica was wonderful with my cats needs !! Had to go out of town for work & was kinda last minute & stuck for help with my cat : Jessica was super accommodating & stepped in at such short ! She took daily photos & videos to share how comfortable & at ease my cat was : Very caring ; loving lady with your furry babies Would not hesitate to use her again read more

I can't say enough good things about Jessica! My dog Rosie is usually very timid around new people, so I was a little nervous about finding a sitter. But during our meet and greet, Jessica immediately put Rosie at ease--she even sat on the floor to make herself less intimidating, and before I knew it, Rosie was all over her. That never happens! Jessica also came through for me during a last-minute trip out of town for work. She stepped in without hesitation and gave Rosie the love and attention she needed while I was away. I'm incredibly grateful for her professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. Rosie and I are both so thankful we found her. Highly recommend! read more

Pet's Friend - Photo of my dog Rosie - Dog Walkers Near Me

Jessica makes a good first impression. At the meet and greet for my two kittens, she took notes the whole time and also introduced herself to my kittens. She stated that her services included the basics - feeding, litter box cleaning, cleaning up any messes, play time, and 30 min. visits (depending on her schedule). I also requested visits twice a day. One of my kittens requires prescription medication and also can't properly control his bowel movements (have to pick up his poop), and Jessica was fine with that. However, things quickly went south. I was asking about pricing because my quote was much higher than a previous quote from months earlier, and Jessica was very short with me. I dismissed it because it wasn't a huge deal provided she could take care of and make my kittens happy. Problem #1: Jessica sent me a video of her playing with my kittens by waving her fingers in front of them, moving my jacket and a towel to try to get them to attack it. I replied and asked her to use toys - what person wants their cat to attack their fingers and destroy their personal belongings? (i have tons of cat toys laying around) Problem #2: Jessica sent me a video of her using a toy but playing on the couch - kittens will attack the toy and scratch up the couch. I replied and asked her to play on the floor. I was a little surprised that it seemed like she didn't know how to play with cats but was willing to let it go as long as she was receptive to feedback. That was the last time she sent a video of her playing with them. Problem #3: She left the lights on two nights in a row - it is extremely obvious if the lights are on because you can see the light from the entryway. Problem #4: Jessica showed up 3 hrs earlier than our scheduled time without first asking. She claimed that she "figured the kitties would be happy to have her come early." However, her recent visits had been very short! The previous visit was 17 min. This one was only 12 minutes from the moment she walked in the door to the moment she walked out (I have a security system). The amount of time for them to eat is probably ~7-8 minutes. I'm sure my kittens would have been happier to have her stay longer and play with them. She also told me that she had no visits scheduled that night except mine, so this should have been a 30 minute visit. I was also charged a holiday fee for this day because she said she was really busy for New Year's Eve... That night, I sent Jessica a text asking if she was playing with the kittens and that I had noticed her visits had gotten shorter and shorter. She never responded to that message (see attached picture). I can only assume she didn't know I could see what time she entered and exited. Problem #5, 6....: When I arrived home, I found that Jessica had not followed my instructions. I had even written an additional cheat sheet in case she needed it. It seemed that she had merely done the bare minimum to get by. There was poop that had obviously been on the floor for a while - was not difficult to find. She threw poop in the trash can instead of my litter genie, so my entire place smelled like poop. She did not refill their water bowl as I had asked her to. I found their fishing pole toys untouched - I had texted her on Day 1 to let her know where they were. My kittens had tore apart their scratching board and couch - I've only seen them do this when they are lonely and get really distressed. TLDR: Jessica did not provide all of the services that she had promised and was paid for. How can you trust someone who does not do what she says she will? She was very unprofessional and short with me in communications. She didn't seem to know how to play with cats - shocking for someone who has a pet sitting business. If you want to know that your babies are in good hands and not worry while you're away, keep looking. And if you've found a trusty, reliable sitter, I'd love to know who you're using! read more

Jessica is fantastic! We used her when we left overnight for our dog Marley. She quickly responded to my message on yelp and we scheduled a meet and greet. Marley loves meeting new people and Jessica was no exception. During the meet and greet Jessica was writing things down in her notebook and making sure she understood his normal routine. I really appreciated her wanting to make sure that she kept his routine as stable as possible while we were gone. While we were gone Jessica text me earlier in the day to confirm the time she would be heading over to our house. Each time she stopped by she would text me video and photos of Marley. Jessica communicated everything with me, she's super easy to work with, and Marley was very happy with her. Thanks Jessica for your help! read more

I have a behaviorally challenged Chihuahua mix and Jessica is amazing with him! He is very fear aggressive and Jessica has worked well with him. She's been walking my dogs for the past couple of years when I'm out of town and I've been very satisfied with her services and the care she's given my dogs. read more

It takes a lot to trust someone to enter my house and take care of my fur baby. Jessica exceeds my standards. Not only is she extremely responsive but she delivers a really remarkable experience for me as a customer. From sending videos of her playing with my cat to her friendly demeanor, I am thankful to have found someone who cares about her job so much. Thanks Jessica! read more

Let's start by saying Jessica is my go to girl when it comes to watching my dog, cat, birds and fish. She was so great with my pets. Even with my bird witch really only likes me. She was very slow with my cat, by the end of meet n greet my kitty was all over her. My dog doesn't have any boundaries she will be all over anyone but Jessica didn't mind that. During meet n greet she sat on floor with my dog, mostly so my kitty could feel comfortable. She asked questions about things i forgot to mention making sure she had every detail to give the best care. During visits she went above and beyond my expectations, making sure all my plants where watered, cleaning all kinds of messes that my messy fur babies left behind. She spent time with each pet individually even my fish (witch by the way likes to follow fingers) and made sure they felt safe. She even cleaned dishes in the sink i left behind. She sent me updates during All visits. I was able to be in constant contact with her witch was so relieving while i was away. Times she didn't send a video or picture she always sent a detailed update about what went on during her visit! So please and impressed with her and all she did to make sure not only I was happy but my babies where happy. If you need a pet sitter i highly recommend Jessica. She's reliable, trustworthy,professional, and definitely knows what's she's doing when it comes to caring for all kinds of pets. Love Love Love Jessica and so grateful i found her! read more

We reached out to Jessica to watch our cat over Thanksgiving and she was quick to reply and happy to help. She's very accommodating in picking up our keys and she was very great with our cat right off the bat! We had her watch him again just a few weeks afterwards. Would definitely recommend. Thanks! read more

This post is long over due. We heard of Jessica through the next door neighbor app. We had a 3 month puppy and we had an outing planned to LA. We didn't want to leave our furry baby alone more than 3 hours. So we reached out to Jessica last minute and she was ver accommodating and fit us in her schedule. She came out a day before to meet Gino and took notes. She then came the day of the app. We had a huge oops happen yo us and we forgot to leave the keys for her. She was so kind she went to the leasing office to find a set of keys. She then sent us pictures / videos of Gino ! She was so loving to our baby! Thank you Jessica! read more

I have used Jessica on several occasions. She is the most loving and thorough pet sitter you could ask for. With genuine affection for all animals, she makes clean water, fresh food, waste clean-up, long walks, and loving care her utmost priority for all our four-leggeds.( I can't imagine anyone giving her a bad review unless it was an excuse not to pay up.) Jess always earns and deserves positive reviews from us. Pet's Friend is tops in our book! read more

As a dog owner for the last 3 years, I've discovered that it's hard finding a pet sitter you can truly trust. My dog is a rescue from an abusive owner and not very many people know how to deal with him. Jess was extremely patient from day one and our dog loves her to death. She truly cares about all her dogs and we're extremely grateful to have found someone like her. read more

Jessica really cares about animals, which is why she's so good at her job. Your pets will be well-cared for and loved. I highly recommend her!! read more

Jessica Was a true delight. She was prompt & very pleasant on our meet and greet. She asked good questions and pays attention to detail. I look forward to having Jessica care for my kitty, and will recommend her to my family and friends. read more

Jessica looked after my cats twice while I was out-of-town, and I have been very happy with her services! She takes careful written note of instructions and appears thorough, conscientious, and accommodating. She sends confirmation texts after each of her visits, including short videos of her lovingly interacting with my cats. She has formed a strong bond with both of my boys, who are clearly crazy about her! I feel confident going on vacation knowing that my kitties are in good hands. Would highly recommend! read more

Having Jessica take care of my fur babies allows me to fo out of town withoit worrying abour thwm. I truly can't say enough about how wonderful Jessica is. My dogs love her and she is able to give my diabetic dog the complicated instructions and medication she needs. Additionally, I have a little dog with a challenging disposition - not a problem for her. She is able to handle him without any issues. If you want the best care for you pets - Jessica's services are for you! I love her and my pups do too. read more

I found Jessica on Yelp probably about a year ago, after contacting several other pet sitters who did not have any last minute availability. I have two blind cats and they are my babies. I also travel pretty often, so having a pet sitter I trust is really important. Jessica has looked after my kitties a number of times. Most importantly, she's reliable. She's also always been available every time I text her to request her services, even if it's last minute (once I had an emergency and she was able to come with no advance notice, which I really, really appreciated). Jessica also always send me videos of the cats, which I love. My husband calls them "proof of life" videos because I worry about them :) I had a pet sitter once who I wouldn't hear from for days/wasn't responsive to texts and I was like, "is he visiting the cats? Are they alive? WHAT IF THE HAVEN'T EATEN IN DAYS?" So I love getting her updates. read more

Great pet sitter! Reliable, knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. I look forward to having Jessica watch my two dogs again.

We just used Jessica for the first time and I can't say enough good things. She came the week before with pad and pen. She met our kitty, asked numerous questions, and took many notes. When she was here, she sent videos of our cat playing. The whole thing was so seamless and worry free. For the first time in years we feel completely comfortable to travel. Hopefully we will have Jessica in our lives for years to come. read more

I'm a girl who doesn't leave her child (dog) at the groomers, and for this reason, groom her myself. In fact, I don't leave her anywhere or with anyone, not even my own Father. She is a rescue and has anxiety, she might cause the old man --set in his ways-- to short circuit, I honestly dunno who is more complex, Penny or my Father. -- Back to review. . . I always rush home from work to walk my dog, and, well, forget about any social activity. That part of my life was Over! And, so, at the constant urging of my girlfriend, Marie, the hunt for a dog sitter began. The First person I called was too busy to return my calls for two weeks. Second person was altogether weird -"do I want this person to have my house keys?" Heck-No. Goodness, this was going to be more difficult than I'd originally thought. So, off to my trusted Pet Supply I went, All the while knowing that it'd be a long shot, however, worth asking, maybe they'd know someone!? I asked the nice lady that always graciously helps me, and gives my Penny treats and lots of love, "Do you know a good dog sitter?" She immediately, and enthusiastically recommended Jessica. She went on to tell me that Jessica loves all animals, not just dogs, and that before Jessica decided to pursue her dream career, taking care of fur babies, she was employed at a veterinary clinic. In addition, she told me Jessica was a long-time customer, and she highly recommends her, with wholehearted confidence and assurance that she is the best at what she does. She gave me her card, and I immediately called Jessica. It was a hassle-free, and easy call. I mean, when it's right, it's right! Right? We set up a meet n greet, and she took notes about my lil dog's idiosyncrasies--she's anxiety ridden and terrified of being abandoned, scared of other dogs, doesn't like the heat, only likes her leash hooked a certain way, the list goes on n on! Before I knew it, the day had arrived, and I couldn't believe my anxiety level, ridiculous, I know! However, Jessica reassured me via text, sent me videos upon arrival and during the walk. I can't describe the relief I felt when I saw the videos. Jessica is a great, loyal, and trustworthy pet sitter and walker. My little Penny is always happy to see her, and every visit goes smoothly and swiftly. Jessica, knew I had concerns about leaving Penny, and was very supportive and concerned, helping me feel comfortable and always assuring me that Penny would be okay. I can't say enough about Jessica, and Pet's Friend. I can now have a little more freedom to work late, if necessary, and to meet friends for social events without having to worry about running home. Maybe even plan a much needed vacation! Jessica really cares and is always available to help with my dog's needs, and willingly goes above and beyond the call of duty. I love Jessica, and highly recommend her!!! Sincerely, Mara Sent from my iPad read more

Jessica is amazing!! I have a energetic little pup that Jessica treats like her own. My husband and I both work a distance away, where we can't come home to walk him. Luckily, we found Jessica and she's never missed a day of walking him. When we first met up, she came by to do an "interview" and was very attentive and took notes when it came to our pup. Every dog is unique and she really gets that. Every day she asks us what time would be best to come by, since schedules can change. We've also asked her for advice when it comes to his allergies or things like that. Because of her extensive experience, we know that we can trust her. I feel confident in recommending her to everyone and anyone. Their dogs will be safe, loved and cared for with Jessica. Also, did I mention that she has some of the best prices in the area? Don't miss out on her, we don't know what we'd do without her! read more

I use Jessica when I'm working late! She is always available last minute when i need her to walk my two dogs! She always sends me updates when she is there so I know my pups are being walked! I've used her for years and always satisfied with her services!! Defiantly recommend pet's friends to watch after your pets!! read more

I hired Jessica to walk our dogs while my husband recovers from surgery. I have two large dogs, one who is very strong and impulsive, the other is nervous and neurotic. Jessica is fantastic with them both, and they are thrilled to see her in the morning. And I always enjoy the daily photos and videos of their adventures. Can't say enough good things about her! read more

I can't believe how awesome this service is! I had a family emergency and needed a dog sitter asap. Jessica answered my late night call and came over the next day. She's super friendly and professional and clearly love my fur babies. She has given me peace of mind on this trip. Thanks Jessica!! I'll definitely be using you a ton more in the future too. read more

Jessica is fantastic. I have a shiba inu that she walks most weekdays in the middle of the day for me while I'm at work. Some days it doesn't matter what time Jessica stops by my place but other days it's better if she comes later -- just depends on how crazy my workday is, like if I have to stay late, or if I have to be somewhere right after work. Jessica texts me every day to confirm that my dog still needs a visits and she asks me what time is most convenient -- earlier or later. Not to mention most days she will send me a text and a pic or video of my pet on their walk so that I can see how it went. In my opinion, that is phenomenal service! And it's exactly what a pet parent wants -- someone who cares as much about your fur-child as you do. I love that Jessica took notes the first time we met and wrote down all the information and specifics I gave her about my pet. I could tell she really cares for her furry clients and enjoys her work. I have so much peace of mind knowing that Jessica is helping me care for my pup. read more
