I have a pretty set schedule so I know the times I can be available and have room for flexibility The While I grew up with a pet I do not currently have a dog and that is just because I was in school and had work so no real time to care and nurture a dog. As for now & school being done and my job being from home I have to perfect schedule to take walks (which I already do on my lunch break) why not add a dog to the fun!

Whether it’s feeding, playing, or cuddling, AJ does it all with unmatched care and attention. What really sets AJ apart is his incredible way with cats. He’s like a cat whisperer! Even the shyest and most reserved kitties seem to feel at ease around him. He has this amazing ability to earn their trust with his gentle and patient demeanor. It’s clear that he genuinely loves animals and has a natural gift for connecting with them. Every time AJ has cared for my pets, I’ve felt 100% confident they were in the best hands. He’s detail-oriented, trustworthy, and always keeps me updated with pictures and messages so I know how my pets are doing. It’s such a relief knowing my babies are happy, healthy, and loved while I’m away. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pets like family and go the extra mile to ensure their comfort and happiness, AJ is your guy.
