Jessie is the only female toy in Andy's room who solely belongs to Andy, while the other female toys, such as Bo Peep, her sheep, Mrs. Potato Head, and Barbie belong to Molly. Plantenga, Bart (2013). Yodel in Hi-Fi: From Kitsch Folk to Contemporary Electronica. Plantenga. ISBN 9780786486946. Jessie is very caring towards her friends, especially to Buzz Lightyear (whom she harbors romantic feelings for) and Woody (whom has a sibling-like relationship with her). She is also very understanding. After Woody finds Bo Peep and is reunited, she accepts his decision to stay with Bo Peep. Though Jessie is saddened by Woody's departure, she gives him a last hug before they go their separate ways and keeps the sheriffs badge he gives her as a symbol of her future leadership. Because she is Bonnie's favorite toy, Jessie presumes leadership of her toys and takes Woody's place as the new leader, while also wearing his badge in his memory. Jessie was honored with the Patsy Montana Entertainer Award from the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame.

Rex is chastised by Mr. Potato Head and the other toys for his clumsiness. Jessie can be seen before the bath, where she witnesses the popping of the bubble. She is also present when the tub floods and gets all of the other toys wet, and can be seen drying herself off moments later. In Toy Story 4, Jessie is shown to be Bonnie's favorite toy, being played with prominently. In the director's commentary for the film, director Josh Cooley explains this was inspired after his own daughter's love for her Jessie doll and her negligence to her Woody doll. This has alluded to both in the installments and specials.
