Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable and Loving Pet Sitter
I have extensive experience in pet care, having looked after a variety of animals, including cats and dogs. I have been a pet sitter for family members, neighbors, and friends on several occasions, which has equipped me with the skills to handle different situations and pet personalities effectively. What sets me apart from other sitters is my commitment to creating a nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. Here are some specific areas where I excel: Routine Maintenance: I understand the importance of maintaining a pet's routine, from feeding and exercise to playtime and rest. This consistency helps reduce anxiety and keeps pets comfortable while their owners are away. Medication Administration: I am experienced in administering medications, including pills and eyedrops, which I learned from caring for my own cats throughout my life. This ensures that pets with special health needs receive the care they require. Emergency Preparedness: I own a car, which allows me to transport pets to the animal hospital in case of emergencies. Being close to Overland Animal Hospital ensures I can respond quickly to any situations that arise. Personalized Attention: I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, preferences, and quirks. This personalized approach helps me create a fun and engaging environment that caters to their individual needs. Overall, my experience, specialized skills, and genuine love for animals allow me to provide exceptional care that stands out in the pet-sitting community.

Jason did a great job boarding our dog, especially considering she had some medical things to stay on top of
GREAT EXPERIENCE! obv my dog was excited to come home with me, but i could tell that she was very well taken care of. i would absolutely (& hopefully) have Jason watch my dog again. thank you so much, appreciate it!!!
I was in a huge bind during my move, and Jason absolutely saved the day by taking care of my pups on short notice. I picked up two very happy dogs! One of my dogs is extremely attached to me and usually very skeptical of new people, so I expected at least some anxiety about being left with someone she didn’t know well. Instead, she was completely relaxed and seemed to genuinely love spending time at Jason’s house. I was honestly shocked because she has never been that comfortable with someone new. Jason has a very calming presence, and my dogs really needed that during the chaos of the past few weeks. I highly recommend him. Your dogs will thank you! 😊
Jason is a great communicator! He responds quickly and was flexible with his time. He sent us text and videos of his time sitting Coco. We really enjoyed watching the videos of her playing fetch and hiking with him. He has a great demeanor about him that Coco took to very well. Thank you so much Jason for watching Coco!
Jason was great! Liby was very happy after her time at Jason’s for daycare. He was very easy to work with and flexible. I will definitely be going back to Jason next time my pups need a sitter. Thanks!! :)
Jason was wonderful he left really descriptive notes about how our little Killi boy was doing and always sent pictures! 10/10 would rebook and I highly recommend him

Schedule
Pet care is a central aspect of my daily and weekly routine. I work remotely from home Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM, which allows me to provide plenty of attention and care for your pet throughout the day. During my work hours, your pet will be with me the entire time, ensuring they have companionship and can receive bathroom breaks as needed. I always make time to take them for a walk, giving them the exercise and fresh air they deserve. In addition to my work schedule, I prioritize play, training, and grooming to keep them happy and healthy. On weekends, I love to take longer outings to parks or nature trails, allowing for socialization and exploration. Overall, I am committed to creating a loving and engaging environment for your pet, ensuring they feel cared for and loved while in my care.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. Nobody will be assisting with my care. Boarding: In my home, I create a welcoming environment that feels like a second home for your pet. I have a nice, large, fenced-in backyard where they can run around freely and play to their heart's content. I ensure they have cozy resting areas and plenty of room for activities. I follow your pet's routine closely, including feeding schedules and exercise needs. Daily walks and playtime are essential parts of their stay, helping to keep them happy and active. Pets are welcome on the couches and beds after Iwipe their paws, allowing them to feel at home. House Sitting: When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their familiar environment to reduce stress. I follow their routine closely, ensuring they receive regular meals, bathroom breaks, and exercise. I also provide companionship, engaging them with playtime and affection so they don’t feel lonely. Drop-In Visits: During drop-in visits, I focus on providing the necessary care within a short time frame. This includes feeding, refreshing water, and taking them outside for bathroom breaks and play. I take time to check in on their overall well-being, providing affection and attention during each visit. Doggy Day Care: In my home, I create a stimulating environment for dogs, with opportunities for socialization and play. I provide structured activities, ensuring each dog receives attention and care throughout the day. Regular breaks for rest and hydration are also part of the routine. Additionally, I am extremely close to Overland Animal Hospital, allowing me to respond quickly to any pet emergencies. Overall, I adapt my approach based on each pet's unique needs, ensuring they feel loved, secure, and engaged, whether in my home or yours.
Pets
A typical day
I believe that keeping pets engaged and entertained is key to their happiness, so I incorporate a variety of fun activities into my routine: Outdoor Playtime: With access to a large, fenced-in backyard, I can provide plenty of space for your pets to run and play. We’ll enjoy games of fetch, frisbee, or just let them explore the yard. Walks and Adventures: Daily walks are essential, and I love exploring different parks or trails nearby. This not only provides exercise but also allows for new sights, smells, and experiences that keep their minds active. Interactive Play: I enjoy using toys that stimulate their instincts, such as tug ropes, puzzle toys, and treat-dispensing toys. These activities challenge them mentally and physically. Training and Tricks: Incorporating fun training sessions helps keep their minds sharp. I love teaching pets new tricks or reinforcing basic commands through positive reinforcement and play. Socialization: For dogs, I can arrange playdates with other friendly pets, providing them with opportunities to socialize and play together in a safe environment. Quiet Cuddle Time: After active play, I also value downtime. I’ll provide plenty of snuggles and relaxation time, allowing pets to unwind and feel secure. Overall, my goal is to create a balanced mix of physical activity, mental stimulation, and affection, ensuring that each pet has a fulfilling and enjoyable experience while in my care.
