Young, active dog lover

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs for decades. I especially like big dogs. I believe in keeping pets active with multiple walks and play sessions during the day. My background is in medicine, so if a pet has health issues I am not squeamish about giving medicine or taking care of sick animals. I currently have two larger dogs that are very friendly and like meeting and playing with new friends. I am retired at this time, so I spend most of the day at home with my pets. I do volunteer at a local high school for a couple of hours in the afternoon, but otherwise I am at home with my pups. We live very close to a dog park and trails. My own dogs go for long walks at least twice a day and often more. My partner works during the day, but would be around in the evenings. We both look forward to taking care of your puppy.

Jay is awesome! He went above and beyond to help me out with my Pup Charlie. Jay drove across town last minute to go walk him for me and even picked him up for daycare when I was in a bind. His house is great for dogs with a big fenced in backyard and he has two very friendly and well behaved dogs for your pup to play with.

Second time having Jay watch our pup Bronson. Really wonderful. He ran our pup daily and he came back exhausted. Can't say anything but positives about Jay. Would highly recommend!

I felt very comfortable with Jay. I think Jay's right in that his place is best suited for bigger dogs but my dog was fine and Jay kept a watchful eye. If Jay would be open to my needy small dog again:) I'll go back for sure. Jay was accommodating to my small dog's needs and communicative.

Amazing guy! Took my dog in short notice and even took her to the track where he coaches, he was so willing to work with our crazy time schedule. Would definatley use him again and recommend him highly!!!
