Professional Dog Walking
Walks at your trail or neighborhood of choice tailored to your dog's abilities. I aim to exercise your dog fully without over-exerting them, making sure they're hydrated well afterwards. I pay special attention to safety, ensuring your dogs are exercised indoors when the weather doesn't permit a full outdoor walk.
Experienced Animal Care
Hi there! I'm Jess, a pet sitter and dog walker based in North County San Diego. Over the last 12 years, I’ve worked with animals through private in-home pet sitting, doggy daycare facilities, and volunteer adoption events with Labs and More Rescue. I genuinely love what I do and take pride in giving every pet the individual attention they deserve.

I'm mindful of your dog's abilities and make adjustments based on heat and weather. I ensure dogs are always hydrated and thoroughly exercised.
I never 'pack walk' big groups of dogs - I personalize walks with your dogs at your location of choice and make sure they're exercised well.
You can rest assured knowing your pets will still get high quality care when you're busy with work, kids, and life.
I have 12+ years of pet sitting experience and animal care, which I use to make sure your pets stay happy and healthy.
Your Pet's Safety is my Priority
I take the San Diego heat very seriously, and I make sure your dogs don't walk in dangerous weather conditions. Typically, the pavement will overheat past 85°F; if pressing the back of your hand to the pavement for 5-7 seconds is too hot for you, it is also too hot for your dog.
If the weather is too hot for a full walk, I exercise your pet indoors instead and ensure they're fully enriched and stimulated.
My Process
My onboarding process is designed to make sure I understand your animals personality and needs so they get the best care possible.
- 1New Client Form
I send a short form with onboarding questions about you and your animal so that I can collect important info, including any special medical needs for your animals.
- 2Animal Introduction
Next, I meet with you and your animals in your home to introduce myself to them for the first time.
- 3Early Check-In
For in-home pet sitting services, I check-in one week before our scheduled service to get a key and reinforce the animals' comfort with my presence in their home.
- 4Scheduled Service
This is where I perform the agreed upon service, keeping your pet company and ensuring that their needs are fully met.
- 5Photo Updates
Especially for in-home services, I will send regular updates with photos to remind you of your cute pet's loving faces.
I think the happiest part of my dog's week is when Jess shows up to walk him
