Pet care experience

🐕 🐈 I love animals!

About me: 1. Rover is my full-time gig! Schedule is extremely flexible. 2. I grew up with tons of cats and dogs around my house - They were constant companions. 3. I have 10 years experience of paid animal sitting and caretaking. 4. I'm respectful, tidy, and like to keep things clean. 5. I'm not a, "have a ton of people over to your home and party while your gone," type of person. 6. I know how to walk a dog correctly, and can take her/him through social situations and parks with no issues. 7. I follow instructions to the "T". Just lay out the feeding schedule and other details, and rest assured that it will get done.

We’ve used Jay for house and pet sitting previously, and he was just as amazing this time! Our furbabies were happy, the house was clean, and we felt at ease because of his open communication and plenty of pictures! Highly recommend and will use Jay again!

Jay did a phenomenal job with our furbabies. We were kept up to date with pictures, and we came home to a clean house and happy pups and cat! We will be booking again!

Jay was great with our fur babies and house sitting! I'm pretty sure one of them wanted to go home with him, lol. The house was spotless when we got home. Having him watch our fur babies in their most comfortable place gave us peace of mind while we were traveling.
