Pet care experience

Professional and friendly

I truly feel that all dogs deserve loving and professional care. They have unique personalities and are such amazing animals. I am very friendly but also prompt and professional. I have always been the go to dog sitter for friends and family. When I meet a new pet I usually find they feel very comfortable around me usually from the start or after I have enough time to learn about what makes them feel comfortable. I will follow your instructions for your dog, and I will always treat them with respect and care at a level that all pet owners would expect. You can always contact me and I am usually very flexible and willing to work with you. Thanks and I look forward to meeting you and your pets. During our stay I take tons of pictures and videos!! I always keep the owners updated several times a day, as I know it can be difficult being away from your dogs. 🐶🐶 (note: I SEND PHOTO AND VIDEO UPDATES 100% of the time requested. Many clients prefer directly to personal cell phone instead of via Rover) In my free time I volunteer to help seniors and the disabled at ACE physical therapy and I drive seniors around for Reston Rides. I have had two dogs that recently passed after 15 years of love and care. Between my dog loving wife and myself there is usually always someone by your pets side, which is a huge advantage with separation anxiety! I truly enjoy meeting your family!

Jared provided daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing our pup was in good hands while we were away. He was flexible with pickup and drop-off and followed all of our care instructions to a T.

Jared was so amazing with my sweet Isabelle! She was so calm and relaxed when she came home. I’ve already rebooked with him!

Jared was amazing. Very responsive and was kind enough to send photos daily! Baxter is laying down on our ride home so I can tell he had an amazing week with Jared! Highly recommend his services, we will use him again in the future.

Our pup can be a particularly tough one to leave with her separation anxiety and she did so great with Jared and his wife! Communication was great and we got a picture update during her daycare session. We’ll definitely book in the future!

Schedule

I work from home, so watching dogs at home is a natural fit. We wake up together, go outside, watch TV, relax together. We have a great time!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dogs will always have fresh and clean water. Will be fed according to the schedule you provide. I prioritize safety, which means making sure leashes and collars are working properly before walks. That all medication, if needed, is given as scheduled. Finally, I make sure every dog gets plenty of love.

A typical day

I go on walks frequently for exercise. Always walked my dogs everyday. I can also take them to a dog park in Reston or other local areas with your permission and request. Also I own a car so I can drive them around with windo partially down, if you think you dog would enjoy that.
