Teacher & Single Dad loves animals
Pet care experience
I have had animals in my house my whole life. I grew up in a house with one dog. Had my first dog on my own, right after college. Currently, my family has 9 dogs, a hedgehog and a bearded dragon. I also volunteer at a local farm, tending to the animals, helping feed, socialize and clean them.
Reviews
Jason was great! He came over to meet and make sure my girls were comfortable with him. You can tell from the first meeting how much he cared about animals. He kept us informed of how they were doing and sent pictures daily. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to take care of your Fur Babies.
Jason is a great pet parent and animal lover. I have witnessed his love for animals over the past 9 years. He treats his animals like his own children and loves them endlessly. He would do the same for anyone else’s animals that he is caring for. His love for animals is not just limited to dogs, he loves all animals. I would let him care for all of my animals at any time and would never have to worry about them being cared for any differently than I would!

Safety, trust & environment
In your home I will follow any of the rules that you expect the animals to follow when you are at home. I am comfortable with animals that have free roam of the house as well as animals that need to be in a crate at certain times of the day. I am comfortable giving medication as needed to animals as well.
Information Jason K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dogs have any special needs or medications that need to be administered. With many animals in my house throughout my life, I am used to handling senior dogs, administering oral medication, and sticking to feeding and bathroom schedules. Knowing exactly what you animals get while you are home is exactly what I want to be able to provide while you are away.
A typical day
A typical day involves waking up on the dog's schedule that they normally keep while at home with their owners. Take them outside to use the bathroom, and them feed them if they eat in the mornings. Then I would enjoy some time with the animals, petting them and giving the attention. We would take some walks and then allow them to have some down time. Walks can be mentally stimulating for them, but it also will wear them out. I enjoy taking dogs on walks through the neighborhood, but that can be difficult in the hotter months because of the hot pavement. I have also taken dogs on walks at some of the local parks where there is shade so the pavement does not burn their paws. If there is a fenced yard, i will play with them in the yard - either fetch, chase or tug of war.
