I'm Jess, and I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find petsitting care for reptiles, pets who have medical needs, or both(!) - because those are the pets I share my house with, too. :) I have owned and cared for reptiles and cats for 5 and 10 years, respectively, and have been the petsitting go-to for many of my friends and neighbors in that time! My wife and I own six cats, four of which are elderly with complex medical needs, and two of which are high-energy kittens. We also have a ball python, a hognose snake, a bearded dragon, and a blue-tongue skink, all of whom are rescues and came to us with unique health needs. However, I'm very proud to report that all of our critters now receive frequent praise at the vet's for being among the most well cared for animals they see - and I hope to bring this energy to your pets' care, too! :) I have experience with insulin, antibiotic, and subcutaneous fluid injections; oral medication administering; post-surgical wound care and dressing changes; and general monitoring of anything you/your vet might want to keep track of, such as weight or temperature. Let me be your go-to for your furry and scaly pet care while you're away, and get the peace of mind that comes with a petsitter who understands your critter's advanced needs.

I've cared for reptiles (both my own and others') for about five years now, and cats for almost a decade!
