Pet care experience

Time around dogs is time well spent

Always had a closeness to dogs and just being around them. Maybe it was spending a lot of times outdoor and admiring people who had a pet with them. Or my dad’s stories of his time training dogs in military. Now I have my own husky who I love, so I fully understand the need of having a well walked dog.

My dog, Chica, loves Jamal! Since Jamal has started visiting with Chica, she has been more relaxed and calm when I get home from work. Jamal is more than accommodating to schedules, mishaps, and anything that comes up. I’m so glad Chica has Jamal in her life, thanks so much man!

Jamal has been an incredible part of Mochi’s life for the past three years. Mochi is a sweet but anxious pup, and Jamal’s calm and gentle energy has always made her feel safe and cared for. I travel often, and knowing Jamal is watching over her gives me complete peace of mind. Mochi has a very specific routine and diet, 2x one hour walks a day, food that requires rehydration and heating, and several supplements. It’s a lot to keep track of, but Jamal never misses a beat. His attention to detail, patience, and kindness truly stand out. He treats Mochi with the same care I would, and I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. I wholeheartedly recommend Jamal to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely caring.

Jamal is a responsible and loving dog sitter who truly enjoys caring for pups of all ages and sizes. He's reliable, patient, and attentive - whether it’s a long walk, playtime, or quiet cuddles. He treats every dog like family and ensure they feel safe and cared for. I would recommend him to anyone who's looking for a walker or sitter!

Jamal is a lifesaver! I have three dogs with big personalities and all different breeds/temperaments, and he handles them with so much patience and care. He’s reliable, communicative, and genuinely loves animals. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dependable dog walker!

Schedule

I am fortunate that I work hybrid and can choose when I go in to the office. On top of my company allows dogs in the office, so I bring my dog in whenever. So pet care has been easy to mix in with my work life.

Pets

A typical day

I prefer outdoor activities, so that can be hikes for nice views or just a walk around the neighborhood. If you have a dog with more energy then fetch is always good. I am not a huge fan of dog parks so that is not on my list of places to go.

Let me know ahead of time if they need any special treatment, I am open to anything. Just need clear communication on what the process or expectation is.
