Highlights
Pet care experience
Empath care giver, miss having pets
I offer drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight house sitting for cats or dogs, and I’m happy to provide daily exercise, playtime, feeding, and medication support as needed. Whether your pet loves long walks, quiet companionship, or consistent routines, I tailor my care to fit their needs and personality. I grew up with mid-size dogs and frequently watched smaller dogs for family friends in Pittsburgh. After moving upstate, I became a devoted cat dad to my black cat, Lola, for four years. Since then, I’ve cared for cats of all ages, including seniors with specific feeding and medication schedules. I'm attentive and responsive to every animal’s unique rhythm. I currently work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to drop in or house-sit for quality time with your pets during the day. I enjoy staying active and love being outdoors—so your dog will always get a good walk (and a happy walking buddy!). For overnight stays, I treat every home and pet with the respect and care I’d want for my own. I pride myself on being responsible, respectful, and kind—treating every home and animal as if my own.

Ratings and reviews
Jared has taken care of my 3 cats and home twice now and handled some mishaps with grace. He is communicative when questions arise and leaves the guest cottage in stellar condition!
Jared looked after my dog Felix in my house for 2 nights. He took great care of everything and made sure I felt at ease. I found a happy and relaxed pup upon my return; Felix looked like he had a good time with Jared. I'm glad I found him and will hopefully get a chance to hire him again in the future.
Jared took great care of our pets and our home.
Jared was very kind, and punctual. I would gladly ask him again to help with my pets!
I was traveling for a couple of weeks, and Jared stayed in my home and took such wonderful care of my two cats, Emma and Starfish. Starfish is a true champion of hide-and-seek, while Emma loves attention—and she bonded with Jared right away. I loved receiving photos of her happily hanging out with him. My cats follow a very specific supplement routine each day, which Jared handled perfectly. When I returned home, both cats were healthy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I highly recommend Jared as a nurturing, reliable presence and an exceptional caregiver for your fur babies!
Jared took great care of my two pets while I was away overnight.
