Pet care experience

Pet your love, love your pets 🐶

Dogs have been part of our family since I was born. Beagle is our favourite breed; 4 of them had been with us. There are currently two friendly beagles in our house, with an artificial turf installed fenced backyard, to keep your pups busy, clean and safe at the same time. Currently I'm doing dog sitting as my full time job. I'd be watching when the pups are playing to make sure they are safe while they are having fun. Water is always available in the house and backyard. The meet & greet is always required for any new pups to our big family. It's my responsibility to know each fur baby before the stay starts. The meeting will provide a chance for me to understand your pup's needs in advance; it is also a chance for your pup to get familiar with the environment, so he/she can be more relaxed during the stay! For the meal time, all of the instructions will be followed to make sure the meal will be exactly the same as it is at home. For my two beagles, we'd soak their kibbles with warm water to make sure they take in certain amount of water for the day. We also mix steamed pumpkin, fish oil and probiotics in meals to keep them healthy. "You don’t get a pet to fulfill your own needs; you should be ready to take care of them like your own baby :) "

Jay is an amazing sitter who sends photos while we are away so we know our pup is having a great time. We have used him for a few holidays now and she always comes back happy and exercised from all the play, we know she is happy there because she is happy to see him and goes with him without looking back when we drop her off. So glad we found Jay on rover.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 26, 2026

Our doggy Harley was in such good hands with Jay :) He is a bit anxious, but Jay was great with making him feel comfortable. Also loved the photo updates and could tell Harley was having a great time! Would definitely recommend and will be rebooking

Doggy Day Care • Jun 16, 2026

We had Suki over for an extended day for daycare and she had a lot of fun! We missed our pick up time because of a delayed flight and Jay took care of Suki for the evening and night. Very accommodating and considerate!

Jay has looked after our pup twice now, and we are very happy with his care. Jay is responsive and shares updates and photos with us throughout the day. He also takes extra care to encourage our pup to eat his meals when he doesn't want to. We would recommend Jay's services to any pet owner looking for a daycare or boarding.

Jay and his family are so kind with the dogs. Before we went away he took extra care with our one dog who hadn’t been there before. He’s got great instincts in understanding dogs’ emotions and needs. We never worry when our dogs are at Jay’s place!

Schedule

The pups will have their first potty break and their first meal around 7:30am. My family and I will walk them to the park nearby around 12:30pm, and will do it again around 7:30pm for the summer time. There will also be some potty break throughout the afternoon period. The last potty break would be at around 10:30pm.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets

A typical day

There will be around 6 potty breaks during a day (2 in the morning, 1 walk around noon if it's not too hot, 1 in the afternoon, 1 walk after dinner, and last one would be before they sleep). Those schedules could be adjusted for different needs. The dogs will mostly stay on the main floor and sometimes allowed to be in our finished basement. We will also bring them to the backyard when we finish our work and will be supervising them at all time. We also have some puzzles that we can hide the treats inside to keep them busy for a while :)
