A dogmatic experience!
Pet care experience
I grew up taking care of my dogs, and my dogs dogs (27 golden retriever puppies in total!), as well as the dogs of friends and family. I've been watching my friends' dogs since I started working from home when the pandemic started and I just love having a work buddy in the house. I've watched everything from a 10 lb chihuahua mix to a lovable 90 lb pit. I believe the most important thing is making your dog feel at home, and that means keeping as much of their routine the same as I can. I know leaving your dog behind during work or travel can be one more thing to worry about, so I send as many updates and photos as you need to put your mind at ease!
Reviews
My dog has spent many day care days with Jason! He is very responsive, easy to coordinate with, and flexible with timing/last minute bookings. My dog can be a bit anxious but Jason handles it very well! My dog gets excited to see him and spend the day with him! I'd highly recommend him for all your pet care needs!
I requested doggy day care barley 24 hours before I needed to book it and Jason was flexible and took my theo in without hesitation! My dog is my whole world and I get anxious leaving him with people but he was in great hands with Jason. Jason sent frequent updates and was quick to reply when I was in contact- another thing that made me feel like my dog was in safe hands!! My Theo is high energy at times and can be a lot when he’s excited or in a new area and Jason took great care of him.
Jason does a great job giving customers updates on their pets, which I really appreciate! He is very knowledgeable about dogs and has ample experience. Thanks Jason!
Jason has looked after several of our and our friends dogs over the last five years. He does a great job looking after them, providing a clean and safe space, and keeping the owners up to date on how their pup is doing. Jason was friendly and easy to coordinate with, we look forward to using Jason again in the future!

I have a ground floor apartment with a fenced patio that faces a busy dog park, so your pup will have plenty of stimulation, and if they're ready for the park, plenty of other friends nearby! I don't have any dogs of my own, so yours will be the priority! I will be home all day during the week for them.

Information Jason M. would like to know about your pet
I always find it easier when I know more about the dog beforehand so there's no surprises. There’s a lot of four-legged traffic near my patio, so it’s particularly important to know how reactive your dog is as well. I do live in an apartment so especially vocal dogs may upset my neighbors who have small children and work odd hours, so I would ask you board them elsewhere with someone who has more space.
A typical day
Totally depends on the dogs and the owners comfort! I work from home during the week, but my schedules flexible so I will be able to take the pup on lots of walks or trips to the dog park. Or they can lay on the couch or on the patio if they'd prefer! On the weekends I try and be more active, so I might take them on a longer walk in the area or to a trip to a nearby park if you're comfortable with that!

I work from home full time so I'm always around for your pup! I am available for boarding during the week and on weekends unless otherwise noted. I like to be active, so if you're comfortable, I might take your dog on a long walk exploring the area!
