I'm responsible, reliable, and treat every pet like family. I’m available for dog walking, check-ins, and overnight stays. I often work from home and have flexibility during typical workday hours, making it easy for me to fit into your pet’s routine. Whether your pup needs a quick walk, extra love during the day, or a trusted sitter while you’re away, I’d be thrilled to help.

I am very respectful of people's homes and wishes. I take to direction very well and would make your pet feel comfortable and loved. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

Information Jay E. would like to know about your pet

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know a few important things to make sure I can give them the best possible care: Their typical routine (feeding, walks, playtime, bedtime) Any medical needs, allergies, or medications Behavior around other animals, kids, and new people Favorite toys, activities, and treats Any fears, triggers, or habits I should be aware of (like leash pulling, separation anxiety, or fear of loud noises) Commands they know and how you prefer them to be used The more I know about your pet’s personality and needs, the better I can make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away!

A typical day

When I’m with your pet, I love making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and fun! For dogs, that might mean going on long walks, playing fetch, exploring parks or trails, or just getting their energy out with playtime in the backyard. If your dog loves cuddles, I’m always happy to relax and give them lots of affection too! I always try to match the activity level and personality of each pet — whether that’s an energetic pup who loves to run or a senior dog who enjoys slow strolls and belly rubs.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys getting outside — and my toddler shares that love of walks and dogs too! While we aren’t planning to get a dog of our own right now, Rover has been the perfect way for us to spend time with wonderful pets like yours. (If you prefer, my toddler does not need to come along — your pet’s comfort always comes first!). I have lots of experience dog sitting for 3 big dogs and grew up with a beloved dog.

Jay was very good with communicating and made it a long way for a 30 min walk. Appreciate his flexibility and willingness to suffer out in the cold weather. Thanks Jay!
