Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust come first in my care. In my home, pets are kept in a clean, secure, and comfortable environment with plenty of attention and enrichment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel safe and stress-free. I always follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions carefully, and keep a close eye on pets so owners can have peace of mind.

Information Jackson J. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know about your pet’s routines, health needs, behavior quirks, and any special instructions ahead of time. This includes feeding schedules, medications, exercise preferences, and how they get along with other pets or people. The more I know, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active and engaged. Depending on their personality, that could mean walks, fetch, or exploring new scents outside. For more relaxed pets, I spend time brushing or playing with their favorite toys. I tailor activities to match each pet’s energy level and routine so they stay happy and comfortable.

Pet care experience

I’ve always had pets growing up, so caring for animals has been a natural part of my life. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, and I understand the importance of keeping them safe, healthy, and happy. From daily walks and playtime to feeding and basic care, I treat every pet as if they were my own.

Jackson remains our go-to sitter after multiple exceptional experiences. He treats our dogs and our home with great care and seems to genuinely enjoy playing with them and walking them. We get proactive updates and fun pictures while we’re gone. Before Jackson, we brought our pups when we traveled because I’d worry when we left them behind. Now we enjoy worry free getaways and the dogs get to keep their routine & relax in comfort at home. Jackson is truly the best!

“Mr Jackson” has been walking Lucy for a week-he really saved us after I had surgery! Lucy is a sweet dog with a lot of personality, and Jackson has been patient and also very willing to listen and learn how to best care for her on walks. He’s also just a good hearted and friendly person. Thanks for the walks!-lucy
