Animals Are First Priority

Pet care experience

I've been surrounded by animals, specifically dogs, ever since I was a child and at this point it's honestly difficult to imagine life without them! Aside from taking care of my own loved ones, I've taken care of pets among my past neighbors along with being trusted with a reptilian class pet over two high school summers. Dogs and cats I've had the most experience with, but I'm open to any kind of pet ranging from fluffy to feathery!

Jay is an excellent dog caregiver as they have taken care of dogs their entire life. Having grown up with dogs, Jay has proven to be very responsible and very "intouch" with each of the animals their life. Companionship is cherished the most and that trait is quite apparent.

It's obvious that Jay LOVES dogs! He takes very good care of them. My dogs have always been very happy to see him. Jay loves all animals and would be a perfect dog sitter!

Jay is one of my best friends, they are practically a sibling to me without being blood related, they adore animals dog's especially. They give unconditional love, many pets and enjoys snuggling up to their fuzzy companions. They're very good with entertainment and play time! They would share little videos of their dog being an absolute silly nut going after a snow shovel, or digging in a kiddy pool full of water. They love their animals, and would absolutely love to enjoy sitting your dog, maybe even more than once if the owners are busy! Build a fantastic relationship with not only the owners but the dogs too. Jay is amazing at what they do, please consider my friend Jay to be your sitter!!

As a lover of all animals and one of the most loyal people you'll meet, I give my word that I will care for your pet as if they were my own--and if a specific list of care instructions are provided I will follow it to a T whether it's specific feeding times, potty breaks, medicine; anything at all! In the rare event that something unexpected and/or spontaneous happens, I will handle the situation in the best way possible and you will be contacted immediately. Fully Vaccinated Since: 07-07-21

Information Jay M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any kind of special needs, specific schedules, funky behaviors; anything at all that needs to be prioritized so I can be sure to give them the proper attention they need. There shouldn't be anything too difficult for me to handle, and even if it's something tricky, I'm a fast visual learner!

A typical day

One thing I've learned from my pup is that, most dogs--especially younger ones--crave some kind of mental and/or physical stimulation. If your dog has high-energy, they'll be sure to enjoy a jog around the neighborhood with me, or even a trip to a nearby park! And we can't forget about their favorite toys to play with! For the low-energy and senior dogs, you can't beat a nice mellow day at home relaxing in the yard (unless the weather is ghastly, then inside is perfect, too). Gentle play with toys, belly rubs, and even casual conversation can be just as fun and exciting! And for all the other non-dog pets, of course they'll receive love and attention if they want it, or they can be given their space if they prefer to keep to themselves! Whatever's most comfortable!

As of 18 Sep., I work part time at Petco! Currently I'm a cashier, but I'm gaining more knowledge all the time and there's not a day that goes by when I'm not helping a pet and their owner.
