Safety, trust & environment

I live in a town home looking for a better home so boarding is not available and house sitting is available. When I’m in someone else’s home I respect the rules and the house no matter what. I bring my own food, clean up after my self, and get comfortable with the pets. I can come before, after, or both as I go to work.

Information Jalen A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they like socializing with other dogs or only like to play fetch or with one certain toy. I need to know what they are allergic to because I rather use the treats you have. Do they have a harness if not I would provide on? Lastly, when is a good day to set up a meet and greet ?

A typical day

When I wake up i go to work and spend 6-8 hours at a dog day care and dog faculty (I will not bring your dog because of procedures including being sprayed/neutered and also a temperament test with others dogs) where dogs be dogs. I have no complaints and truly am blessed.

Jalen took excellent care of our dogs and the house. He was prompt and communicative. We will use him again when we travel.

Jalen did a great job! I was a little worried since this was my first time using this type of service. My dogs are trained and do good on walks, as long as the training is used. Jalen asked questions and was engaged with making sure the correct techniques were used. The dogs had a great time, came home ready for a nap!

Our dogs, who can be difficult, love Jalen. He takes the best care of them. He knows how to handle challenging breeds. Our dogs are sweethearts, but they need people who understand their temperament. When we come home from a trip, they are just loving on Jalen. He’s such a good sitter. I’d highly recommend anyone.

Jalen is our first choice. We have a Belgian and a border collie who needs someone who understands their breeds. Jalen has been phenomenal. I would highly recommend him.
