Working from home gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. Begin and end each day with your furry companion—morning walks or playtime can energize both of you and set a positive tone for the day ahead. In the evening, relaxing together creates a calm atmosphere and strengthens your bond, making every moment together more meaningful.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet with the same love, affection, and respect I show my own. As a non-drinker, I ensure your pet is always in safe, capable hands—ready to provide endless belly rubs or step behind the wheel immediately should an emergency arise. To provide a secure and positive experience, I prioritize clear communication regarding medical needs and temperaments, maintain strict leash control to avoid risks, and provide comfort through consistent routines. My approach is built on a deep understanding of animal behavior, allowing me to manage difficult scenarios—such as canine aggression—with composure. From secure yards to rigorous safety protocols, my goal is to provide owners with total peace of mind and pets with a nurturing, safe environment.

Information Jared S. would like to know about your pet

You must ensure that your dog is fully potty trained. If your dog marks, potty’s inside or does not listen to any commands or respond to their name, then you will unfortunately have to pay for any marking or damage done by your pet.

A typical day

We love to have play time with all the dogs together. I enjoy taking dogs around my neighborhood and the preserve near my home for walks together.

Pet care experience

With over 25 years of experience caring for both small and large dog breeds, I offer a safe, attentive, and loving environment for your pet. My experience extends to basic training techniques like "sit" and "stay," and I am adept at hosting pets in our home. I prioritize maintaining your dog's routine, from feeding and walking schedules to their usual sleeping arrangements, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. To keep you connected, I love sending regular updates with photos and videos and will immediately communicate and address any issues that may arise. My deep understanding of dog behavior and body language allows me to quickly identify and respond to any signs of stress or discomfort, ensuring your pet's well-being is always the top priority. Our home features a large, fenced-in yard where dogs can run and play freely. I believe physical activity is vital for a happy pet, so I ensure every dog gets plenty of exercise, including long walks and exploration at several nearby parks. Recognizing that every pet is unique, I tailor my approach to their individual needs and personality. I use positive reinforcement, such as treats, praise, and a gentle voice, to encourage good behavior, and I avoid harsh methods. I make it a point to engage in your pet’s favorite activities, whether it's playing with a specific toy or simply cuddling on the couch. You can trust that I will be attentive to your pet's safety at all times, especially during walks, and will always be diligent about cleaning up after them.

Thanks for taking good care of my fur baby and being flexible when I didn’t have exact pickup/dropoff times.

We cannot recommend Jared highly enough. From our very first interaction, his attention to detail and professionalism set him apart. He took the time to ask thoughtful, specific questions about our dog’s routines, preferences, quirks, and health history—everything from feeding schedules and portion sizes to behavioral cues and comfort habits. It was clear he wasn’t just “watching a dog”; they were committed to understanding and caring for our dog. Communication was exceptional throughout. We received consistent updates—photos, positive words about our dog’s behavior and how much he enjoyed watching our dog. Every message reassured us that our dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and engaged. His knowledge of dog care was evident in both small and significant ways. He demonstrated confidence in handling, situational awareness on walks, and an understanding of canine behavior that gave us complete peace of mind. He was proactive rather than reactive, anticipating needs before they became issues. Our dog can be particular, yet he adapted seamlessly and respected established routines while building trust. What truly stood out was his authenticity. There was nothing transactional about his care—it was thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and that sincerity showed in every interaction. If you are looking for someone who blends professionalism, knowledge, attentiveness, and heartfelt care, his is extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter.
