I am a touring bluegrass musician, but have plenty of home time. My schedule works great for folks that are looking for a dog walker while they are out of town or just need someone to help take some of the walking off your hands to free up time! Dont hesitate to reach out with any questions. I am always available and responsive, and very easy to get ahold of at all times.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very thorough understanding of the importance of meticulous care and trust in a dog walking or pet care relationship. My approach is always 100% of the time treating your pet, belongings and property with the utmost respect, via deliberation and forethought. I pride myself in curating a safe, trusting environment with my clients.

Information Jan P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog or pet has ever had issues with biting or if they have behavioral issues I should be aware of. I am happy to deal with personality quirks with animals and am very used to it, but I like to be aware in advance if there are particular things that your animal reacts to.

A typical day

Exercise is king! Long walks to the park, playing fetch, interacting with your pet is top priority. I always come prepared with treats to reward good behavior, and am a gentle personal who will treat your pet with the utmost case.

Pet care experience

I grew up in a household taking care of many different types of animals. Dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents, caged birds, as well as livestock such as chickens, various fowl and goats. My dog walking and sitting experience includes caring many rescues since I was a small child. My calf demeanor and gentle presence works well with all breeds, and I have the patience and experience required to work with energetic and challenging animals. Understanding how dogs communicate and express various emotions is a key part of being a good caretaker.

Jan loves animals! He looked after our two dogs and one cat for years. I hire him whenever I need pet services. He takes good care of them: walking, washing, feeding, giving medicines, snuggling and being an overall good companion. I highly recommend Jan for all pet services.
