Pet Sitter in Portland, Maine

Jessica is the best! I’m a very picky pet mom because my pets have many medical and behavioral needs. I left her a 2 page list of instructions for everyone (I had a bit of a zoo then. Cats, guinea pigs, gerbils and fish) and she followed everything to a t and even sent videos/pictures of each pet EVERY time she came to my house. This was the first time I’d left them with a sitter and I was nervous. After her first stop in I had no worries at all. I could see in the videos that everyone was happy. I’ve also professionally worked with Jessica outside of pet sitting and her dedication and compassion are outstanding!

I've had multiple pet sitters over the years, and Jessica is by far the best! She is professional, reliable, and caring--most importantly, she loves animals, so I know that she will always care for my cats like they're her own when we're away. She sends me photos and videos daily, so I know that they're being loved; and it helps me miss them just a little bit less. My four cats all have different diets and food preferences, and she handles feeding them all with no problem. She even doesn't mind the long, and (overly) detailed feeding notes that I leave for her! Because of her work experience, I am completely comfortable leaving my special-needs cats in her care, as she is an expert at giving medications and can easily spot signs of illness. Even though I don't expect a pet sitter to clean up all the food dishes, etc., I always come home to a very clean house. Jessica makes sure that the litter boxes and surrounding area are clean and swept, the feeding areas are free from crumbs, and the kitchen sink is empty--because she has taken the time to wash all the dishes. Finally, my shyest cat who usually doesn't come out of hiding for anyone other than my husband and me, took to Jessica after only two visits and now comes out regularly for her, rolling around and letting her love and pet her. This sealed-the-deal that Jessica is the best cat sitter ever!
