Safety, trust & environment

Long, relaxed walks are my jam with dogs no rushing! For cats, it's all about those engaging play sessions. After the fun, it's cuddle time! Also, I'll keep your place tidy, locked up tight, and grab any deliveries. Building trust and a good connection with your pets is super important to me.

Jeff is such a great dog partner. Our dog adores him, and the peace of mind he provides as a sitter is top notch. He’s also the perfect house guest. When we get home, everything is clean and tidy, and our dog is a happy camper. So glad we found Jeff!

Jeff is absolutely a rock star Rover sitter. From the moment we did our first meet and greet with our dog, Inez, it was clear that Jeff was going to be the perfect fit. Inez loved him immediately, and based on all the wonderful photos and texts from our her two weeks with Jeff, she had the best time going on long walks, seeing new parks, making new puppy friends, and just being totally well cared for. Jeff really went above and beyond not just with our dog, but taking care of the house as well. It was so wonderful to have total peace of mind while we traveled, knowing Inez was in good hands. Five stars, and definitely recommend Jeff if you need a top notch dog friend!

Jeff took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. He sent regular photo updates, took our dog on very long walks, and was great with communication.

Jeff was great! Very prompt communication and checked in to make sure he understood my dogs needs. He took great care of her and sent lots of photos. She really loved them. He left my place very clean! Would definitely use him again.

Jeff took fantastic care of our cat and stayed at our house while we were gone for a long weekend. His communication was great and we got daily pictures of her getting cuddles or playing. The house was also in great shape and very clean when we got home. He is clearly an animal lover and knows how to put them at ease when their family is away. We couldn't be happier with Jeff's care!

My work is online and pretty chill with timing, so squeezing in pet care is easy any day. Plus, I need those outdoor breaks anyway, so dog walks are perfect!

Tell me the good stuff! Any reactions to other dogs or kids? Special needs? I've got experience helping anxious animals feel safe, often using outdoor time and walks to chill them out. If your dog's a jumper, no worries - at 6'3", I've got a belly rub and pivot move that usually works wonders without losing ground! For older pups with a bit of the creaks, we'll take it slow and keep things fun at their pace. Oh, and I'm happy to crash at your place for some serious cuddle puddle time with your doggo (or crate snuggles if that's their thing!). Animals are just amazing, and making that connection is so rewarding.
