What we can and can’t do

More on Pet Care & Dog Walking

Reliable, thoughtful care that keeps pets comfortable, safe and happy.

We offer in-home pet care, pet sitting, and dog walking throughout Humboldt County, with a focus on maintaining routines, providing attentive supervision, and communicating clearly with pet parents while they’re away.

Our approach is calm, structured, and respectful of each animal’s needs. We support comfort, safety, and well-being in familiar environments.

What we offer

  • In-home pet sitting and check-ins

  • Dog walks tailored to energy levels and routines

  • Farm animal care support (horses, goats, chickens, pigs, rabbits, etc.)

  • Safe, attentive handling and supervision

  • Medication support if needed

  • Regular photo updates and care notes

  • Clear, reliable communication

Dog sitting and walking is centered on fulfillment, regulation, and consistency rather than overstimulation or rushed visits. We prioritize creating a calm, predictable environment where dogs can relax and feel secure and loved.

When appropriate, supervised social time for dogs who enjoy companionship with other dogs is available. Social interactions are always guided, optional, and focused on safety and compatibility.

Pet Care & Dog Walking Testimonials

“Jessie has watched my dog Mahi on countless occasions, and I couldn’t ask for better care! He absolutely lights up when he sees her! She ensures his needs are met, follows his training and routines, and gives him so much love and comfort. Jessie’s care is driven by empathy, respect, ethics, and an authentically nurturing personality. I rest easy when I’m out of town, knowing my good boy is in great hands!”
— Jamie B
“Jessie is a dog lover at heart and knows how to make even the most attached dogs feel right at home under her care! Jessie provides a great balance of exercise, loving company, and feeding / sleep routines to give dogs the structure they need to feel safe. Our dog Banjo loves spending time with her, and we always feel safe knowing she fully embraces the level of responsibility of caring for our dog. I definitely recommend considering Jessie as your next dog sitter to give your pup what they deserve when you are away.”
— Colleen W
