The idea of Jessie was suggested by Nancy Lasseter, while John Lasseter, Pete Docter, Ash Brannon, and Andrew Stanton developed and created the character. With Woody's departure after reuniting with Bo Peep, she is given his sheriff badge as a token of her significance to Bonnie.

Years later, she and most of her friends are donated to Bonnie Anderson, who claims Jessie as her new favorite toy. She eventually longs to be a source of joy to a child after being rescued by Woody, and spends years with her new owner, Andy Davis. Years of being in storage have made her somewhat withdrawn, leading her to develop claustrophobia and abandonment issues. In the franchise, Jessie is a brave and excitable rag doll who carries a great deal of sadness, as her original owner outgrew her and abandoned her. She serves as one of the primary characters and is primarily voiced by Joan Cusack in the films and most other media, with Kat Cressida voicing the character in the Disney Infinity series, and Sarah McLachlan her singing voice in Toy Story 2. Jessie is a fictional cowgirl rag doll who appears in the Disney- Pixar Toy Story franchise making her debut in Toy Story 2.
