Pet care experience

Au Pair class service. Nothing less

I have over five years sitting, boarding, and walking dogs in various capacities. From very young puppies and elderly dogs who need that extra patience, to some very big boys who need extra play time; I've done it all. Couple this with extensive fostering and volunteering at shelters and I've worked with some of the best and worse scenarios which has really impacted my understanding for our wonderful friends. Your doggo will receive nothing less than being treated like a member of my family. I love dogs big and small. I have prepared my own documentation so that alongside a "meet and greet," any attention to detail will receive my full attention and understanding. I look forward to meeting you and spending time with your lil buddy. I do offer stays outside of San Marcos but most services are proximal.

As an owner of a breed (Belgian Malinois) that comes with a little higher attention and demand, it was such a relief to find Jarrod! He was incredibly attentive to our instructions, and was great with sharing updates while we were away. He took care of her and our home like they were his own, and as a result I felt like I could relax and not worry while away. Highly recommend!

Jarrod was awesome, he really treated our house and pets like his own. He tidied up our house and did the dishes, he even vacuumed! He consistently communicated with us and sent us all the photos! Thank you, Jarrod!

Jarrod was great with our boys! He really went above and beyond to take care of them while we were away for the weekend. Will definitely look into working with him again!
