Welcome!
Hi there. I’m Jess, the Fairy Dogmother. After graduating with my Ph.D. in Sociology in 2021, I moved to North Carolina and started my own animal care business. My mission is to provide personalized and luxuriously comfortable care to animals while their humans are busy or away. I mainly service the South Durham area.
On Rover, an app that connects animal sitters with potential clients, I have amassed over 150 5-star reviews and maintain Star Sitter status. Clients typically enjoy fast and thorough communication, lots of high quality photos and videos of their pets, and an experienced caretaker who knows how to respond swiftly in medical emergencies.
I am a pet mom to a chocolate chihuahua named Choco, and a blind Russian Blue cat named Marco, a rescue from Saving Grace. Sometimes I foster from Saving Grace. I have a special place in my heart for working with senior and disabled dogs. I call myself the Dogmother, but I have experience working with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, birds, and reptiles.
