I was laid off recently from my Tech recruiter position. I also act and do auditions from home. This allows me to make myself available when needed. It also gives me plenty of time to give your pet attention and exercise.

What an Awesome sitter! Extremely friendly - you can tell right away that he loves and has lots of experience with all kinds of dogs. He was accommodating and took time to understand each of our two dogs individually. While in his care, he would share updates and communicated very well! Our dogs were returned to us in great spirits, I have truly never seen either of them this comfortable and happy after a stay away from home. There is no doubt that we would book with Jay again. 10/10!

I had booked with Jay for a several day stay in the past, and he took great care of my dog. I felt confident rebooking for daycare this time around. Thanks Jay, you're the best!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
