Pet care experience

Fluent in animal behavior

I have experience working with zoo animals and I’ve worked at my local humane society and vet clinic. I take the time to understand each dog’s unique behavior in order to become the best of friends! At the vet clinic I was a boarding assistant so each day I handled dozens of different dogs. I try to learn about your pet and treat them just like any other living creature. I have rehabilitated a dog that was destined to be euthanized because of his aggressive behavior. I spent every day with him and did what needed to be done to help him realize the world isn’t that scary when you have a friend to explore it with. Although cats are my animal of choice, dogs are a close second.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have had pets in the house my entire life. I currently live with two cats a a dog, so having your pet stay with me would not really be an option. If your dog is friendly to other dogs, our dog, Beasley, is very well behaved and loves to play with anything that moves! In past house/pet sitting jobs I have gone to the dog park with both her and the owner’s dogs so if that is something you would be ok with I we would have so much fun doing that!

House was clean. He emptied garbages, ran dishwasher, took sheets off bed. Most importantly our dog was in good hands and enjoyed the company.

Jack was a great house sitter! He met with us and the dogs a few weeks prior to introduce ourselves and he was kind and respectful. He stayed at our house for 6 days. He asked good questions and had us provide important information which made us feel comfortable in leaving him with our dogs. Throughout the week, he sent us some photos of them and would give us occasional updates. He would always respond if we had a question or two. He was very generous and moved a lot of heavy packages that were delivered, into our garage which was very nice since it was raining a lot when I got home. The house was very clean and everything seemed to be in place and the dogs were happy! Overall, I had peace of mind while I was gone and I would definitely recommend Jack for others to book.

In every picture my puppy was smiling. I was very pleased with Jack’s care of my little guy and will be glad to use him again.

Jack did an amazing job! Pets were walked daily and were very happy when we returned home. He left the house just as we left it. We would definitely have him back!

Schedule

I work full time as a lab tech at a small dental arts studio. My three co-workers, our boss, and I all have a mutual respect and understanding of each other’s needs. I think we would all agree that pets and personal affairs come first. Meaning I can easily leave work to manage your animals as needed.

Let me know if your fur pal has any medical needs or significant behavioral quirks that I should attend to. Such as being afraid of men with hats, or cars, or whatever.
