Pet care experience

Genuine, fun-loving, and adaptable

I’ve had pets basically my entire life, growing up we had a beautiful blue nose pit and then a jet black lab both of whom we lost while I was going to college. Since then I began working with animals professionally in a 5 star puppy boarding facility in midtown. I’ve learned a lot through the experience because we care for up to 100 animals a day see them through daycare, overnight boarding, grooming, and training. I currently have no pets of my own but I love to fill my home with a new loving puppy face whenever possible. I often dog sit for family and friends, and animal care is like second nature to me. I’ve never met a puppy I couldn’t make a pal out of.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in yard as well as dedicated indoor and outdoor puppy area, the indoor space is a previously unused bedroom which has been vamped up to provide an ideal care space for your fur baby’s and our large suburban yard would give even the most energetic of pips plenty of space to roam and run around.

Jay is absolutely amazing! He was reassuring before during and even after the stay. It was my first time leaving my dog for so long after adopting her and he treated her like family. Got her a gift and even treats. They bonded and I loved getting my daily updates and know my baby was feeling safe and well taken care of. I would definitely be using him again as they’ve bonded and I couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful person. He really listened to my concerns and notes and applied them. Loved seeing him work with her on her bilingual commands and giving me tips as well. A true professional and pleasure.

Boarding • Apr 25, 2025

I boarded my dog, Mochi, a 9 year old Staffordshire Boxer mix, with Jairus for about a week while I was out of town and I had a wonderful experience with him. He initiated a meet and greet before I even booked with him, and I knew right away he’d be a great fit for my pup. Jairus sent me daily pictures of my boy, let me know when my dog had an upset stomach and nursed him through it, and, knowing my dog has separation anxiety, Jairus was very reassuring while I was away. Down to how he lovingly spoke of my dog while he was watching him, Jairus is truly a loving, trustworthy sitter. 10/10.

J took incredible care of Teddy! It was clear that Teddy felt comfortable and truly bonded with J. If you’re looking for someone to love and care for your fur baby like their own, I highly recommend booking with J. You won’t regret it!

I’m availed pretty much 24/7, my job provides plenty of flexibility where pet care is concerned. Any baby staying with me would have full access to our facilities if needed/wanted, and my home was designed with animal care in mind so I have plenty of space and time for most overnight boarding situations.
