WFH With Plenty of Time for Dogs
I recently got a new job that allows me to work remotely most of the time. My dog has loved the change, but needs some company from time to time. I live in an apartment with a 2 acre dog park a half mile away. My dog and I usually go to the park twice a day when I work from home (weather permitting) with several more walks a day. There is also a walking trail around a couple of ponds with plenty of squirrels for your dog to say hi to. We always had pets (cats and dogs) growing up in a small Texas town. As a kid, I also did drop in visits for some of my neighbors when they went out of town. After I got my dog, I would dog sit for some of my friends. Now that I work from home almost every day, I'd like to keep having extra dogs around that Zeus can play with while I'm working. I have a 35 pound Jack Russell mix named Zeus. He's friendly to everyone, both people and animals. He gives dogs their space and is patient with enthusiastic puppies. He is a chill apartment dog that sleeps as much as a cat. He doesn't have a set schedule so he'll be flexible if your dog needs certain walk or feeding times.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Aaron was the best sitter one could ask for. He asked me very relevant questions to make sure Mancha would feel comfortable. He sent me pictures everyday, took her to the dog park many times and played with her. Mancha was so happy with him! Also, his dog Zeus was very sweet. Mancha is usually scared of bigger dogs but from minute one, she liked him and there were no issues. I will repeat with Aaron in the future for sure! :) I am sure Mancha missed him alreay.
Aaron is the best of the best. He is so responsive and it is clear that he loves dogs. My husky came back tuckered out from her vacation with Aaron. So great@
Aaron is the best! He takes such good care of Sprinkles and sends me so many pics of her throughout the day. She wasn't even that excited when I came to pick her up, that's how much she loves it over there. Will definitely rebook again :)
Aaron did an amazing job with my pup! Very attentive, active, and takes tons of photos so you can see how your dog is doing. Great communication style, and highly recommend for an active pup.
The best of the best. I travel a lot for work so I use a number of different dog-sitting and boarding services. Aaron is now my first choice! Excellent and quick communication, accommodating, and lots of pictures when Harley is there! A+
I was so nervous to leave my dog with someone new for the first time, but Aaron was so communicative, asked lots of questions, and made me feel more comfortable. He sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the day so I could see how much fun Sprinkles was having while she was going on walks or relaxing with his dog Zeus. I also severely miscalculated what time I would be back to pick Sprinkles up but Aaron was so understanding and we got it all worked out. I'm thankful to have found him through this site and would use him again in the future!

Schedule
I have a job that lets me work from home so I'm able to be flexible with my schedule. Zeus and I usually go to the dog park twice a day and take several walks throughout the day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment with my Jack Russell mix Zeus. He's a great co-host and is patient with overly energetic puppies and gives dogs their space when they want it (he sleeps like a cat). My apartment complex has a dog park that's a 10 minute walk away and it has a walking path around a couple of ponds. The neighborhood is quiet (except for Lovers Ln) and is great for wandering around. There's full time access to water and I allow animals on the furniture. I can crate your dog if needed.

A typical day
First thing in the morning, Zeus and I go for a walk to the dog park while it's still cool. We'll have breakfast and then start the day. We'll go for another walk late morning/noon. While I'm on a lunch break, we'll play for a bit before I go back to work. We'll have a short late after noon walk followed by another trip to the dog park around sunset. We'll do another short walk before bed.
