headshot.jpgJessica, a native Houstonian, has been an animal lover her entire life. Growing up around dogs, cats, horses, and gerbils, she became comfortable around animals of all sizes at an early age. After struggling to find happiness working behind a desk from nine to five, Jessica decided to return to her first love – dogs. Working at a large dog daycare/boarding facility that welcomed “aggressive” breeds gave her valuable knowledge and experience in dealing with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Her training also included education in dog psychology, behavior, and basic first aid. Now working as a professional dog walker and pet sitter, she enjoys making sure dogs stay happy, healthy, and loved! Jessica has worked with almost every breed of dog- including Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, and German Shepards, and she also has extensive experience working with puppies. Jessica has two adopted kids –  a Lab mix named Buffy and a Chihuahua mix named Amigo – along with one of her own – a two-legged human named Sebastian.
