About Jessica

Hi there!

My name is Jess, I'm a Registered Nurse & an avid animal lover of all shapes & sizes!

📍Servicing all of the Gold Coast, and Brisbane on special request 🖤🖤

I am a human nurse, because I'd probably try to take my patients home, and never get any work done if I was a vet nurse😅

I've signed up to be a pet sitter, as I wanted to do something that I would really enjoy on my days off, filling my cup again after mentally & physically demanding days caring for and treating the most vulnerable at work. So what better way to spend my spare time than cuddling & giving love to all your pets! I have the biggest soft spot for any & all animals. I often call out to them when I'm driving, I will stop my partner on the street so I can say hello & point out any animal, I will even wave to the cows on my way to work!

I've always had pets, from the day I could walk. I've had every animal from dogs, cats, birds, a turtle, a hermit crab, a lizard, a snake, even a chicken!

These days, I own one floopy boy cat. His name is Binx, and I consider him as my son! Unfortunately Binx is a rescue, and he has come in contact with CatFlu in the past. So to keep your babies and my boy safe, I am unable to bring any pets into my home, or care for them in my home

In the past I have volunteered at various shelters, keeping the animals company & taking them on walks, so I am no stranger to animal enrichment!

My services are as follows:

⚫️At home sitting (owners home, see above) - days, overnight, longer stays. I'm happy to do basic housekeeping, mail, bins etc. just let me know!

⚫️walks (long walks are welcomed, so are dog parks, play time and the beach!)

⚫️and drop-in visits (feeding, welfare check, litter changes, "present" cleanup etc. )

no request is too strict! it's your pet after all, and I want them to feel protected & well looked after! So please don't hesitate to let me know their routines, meal & diet requirements, hygiene and grooming!

ALSO please note just because one day is blocked out, it may just be that I'm working that day. Please message me if you really need that date, as my work hours are a bit all over the place & I am more than likely able to squeeze you in!

eg. if I start at 1500 that day, I have blocked it out as a personal reminder, BUT I will happily fit in a walk, a drop-in or even just bring my work clothes with me for a sleepover! so don't hesitate to reach out, you never know! 🖤

I'd be more than happy to meet you prior to taking care of your pets too ☺️

*** Please note, although I have not undertaken official training for animal CPR/ First Aid, I am a Trauma Registered Nurse, and even taking into account varying animal anatomy, I am confident in my ability to administer CPR, provide basic first-aid, and administer medications. After all, I've had my fair share of non-compliant patients 😂

Jess was absolutely amazing with our 2 dogs.

They seemed to have had the best weekend with her and were absolutely exhausted when we got home. Would definitely recommend Jess and will for sure be using her again!

Jess was absolutely amazing! She’s looked after our boys very well and gave me updates while we were away. ❤️ Jess had such great communication and went above and beyond for us. Definitely will be booking again. Thanks again Jess!

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
< 5 years of experience
I have volunteered in the past with AWL, RSPCA and shelters for enrichment with rescues, be that yard time, cuddles, treats & just some company. My boy is a rescue cat, and he’s the most spoilt floop you could imagine! Previously I have had other rescue cats and dogs too! I understand that rescues are often less trusting, more timid, and sometimes can act out of fear. Please rest assured that I will take all the time your pet needs to adjust, and I will give them all the love they ask for, respecting their space. All animals, big and small deserve unconditional love.
