Cats or dogs, I love them all!

Pet care experience

I grew up with two amazing poodles starting in 8th grade, so I was always around dogs from a relatively young age (and they’re still going strong! Check out their pics in my profile 🙂). In highschool, I volunteered at a no-kill cat shelter near my house and then in college, volunteered at a city-wide no kill shelter in my free time. Finally, at the start of the pandemic, I was able to foster two cats when my WFH was instituted (their pics are in my profile as well). I’ve always been around animals, and I’ve missed the extensive exposure as I entered the workforce, lived with people who have been allergic, and moved around the east coast before settling here. I’m capable of doing anything needed to give your pets the best possible time they could have!

Growing up with Jay, I got to know him as both a friend and a dog owner. For years, he's been a nurturing and loving caretaker for two poodles. I've spent countless hours with both Jay and his family and he's provided both dogs with nothing but love and affection, while maintaining a strong sense of responsibility for both dog's well-being and health. He is a very loving and patient dog caregiver and, by letting him watch over your dog, you would be putting your trust in the right person.

Jay seems to communicate with pets as well as their owners. He is caring and respectful and will consistently seek out opportunities to spend time with animals. Cats and dogs seem comfortable around him, and if he consistently at home, I believe he’d own multiple pets.

Jay is an amazing and compassionate person. He loves dogs, is friendly, caring, and genuinely cares for all living beings. His interactions with dogs is compassionate, patient, and loving. I have never seen him lose his temper, yell, or treat any animal negatively. He loves being outside, going for runs, and spending time in the outdoors, which is always very welcome when caring for dogs. I would strongly recommend him for any dog caring, sitting, or walking needs.

Safety, trust & environment

In my own home, my roommate and I keep the place spotless and we don’t have any other animals or small children to make your pet uncomfortable. A pet will never be left unsupervised and will always be under an experienced, watchful eye.

Home

Lives in a house
Has an unfenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has no pets
No children present
Dogs allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Information Jay R. would like to know about your pet

Definitely important to know what would stress a dog out and how they indicate they need to use the bathroom and/or are hungry. Also anything they particularly like would be ideal to know as well.

A typical day

We can really do it all: check out Liberty Park (right near my house), Herman Franks dog park (also right next to me), go on a hike, play fetch, etc. Thankfully live in a good spot and have the time for extensive outdoor activities.

Availability

**For cats, I cannot board longer than 2 days**. I’m currently fully work from home so my job gives me almost full autonomy during the week outside of calls! I also live right by Liberty Park where I run and go on hikes around the SLC area on the weekends (when weather permits) - both scenarios give the perfect opportunity to take a dog on a walk or for some extra outside play time! On top of that, there’s a dog park a less than 7 minute walk from me if that’s something your pup is comfortable with! Outside of work, and especially on the weekdays, the only other time I leave the house is to go to the gym so I’m always around and available for anything your pet may need.
