Loves seniors, Remote, Enjoy Hikes

Pet care experience

I love the company of all types of animals. I volunteer and walk large dogs at Austin Animal Center. I have cared for dogs from 6 month to 18 years old. Cats from 4 to 10 years old. I have experience with dogs that are reactive to other dogs and know how to work with the dogs to reduce their reactions. For dogs I usually take the to a park or hike during the stay and cats I make sure they have lots of play time. I enjoy getting up early for a walk so a pet along with my routine is always welcomed. The pet photos of cats are strays I once took care of and the dogs are pets that had overnight care. Depending on the length of stay i might take out my big camera for the best photos. I work remote and can be there for your pets the majority of the day. Aside from a few hours out for food, I'm usually a home body. Depending on the location, I would prefer to not stay over night, but we can discuss. Normally I prefer to meet the pets and owners before their vacation to get to know the pet and rules for the house, specific things the pet wants and unique instructions from the parents. Remote worker that can be with their pets the majority of the day. I will follow the guidelines to what your pet is use to. Ensure they are within my sites at all times, especially the puppies. I will follow the instructions of medication and rules of the owners. I like to confirm things when its not clear on the paper instructions just in case.

Jeff was an amazing dog sitter. Not only was he available last minute, he went above and beyond. His updates were excellent and he took so many thoughtful pics of Donkey. He even took Donkey out to the Mueller Farmer's Market! Last but not least, he left the house in wonderful condition. I highly recommend Jeff as your next sitter.

Jeff's support, care, and overall service was superb. I've been using Rover for 5+ years and probably had close to 15 different dog sitters, but no one came close to providing the care and services that Jeff did. He was communicative, timely, caring for our elderly dog, and overall very respectful and professional. I would highly recommend Jeff all around. There was nothing he didn't do that went beyond my expectations. He's awesome!

Jeff is reliable, communicative, and trustworthy – the perfect sitter for your fur babies. He is my go-to support when I need extra help with the doggos!

Information Jeff L. would like to know about your pet

What is their normal schedule. I will try to match it as best as I can. What foods and snacks are allowed. Are they friendly with other dogs/humans? Medications or special needs? How long can they be exercised (I don't want to hike your dog/cat for 3 hours if they have special conditions for no more than 20 mins walking)

A typical day

Normally a early morning walk and breakfast before my work starts. Ensure they have a second potty break after the meals. I'll focus on work and take hourly breaks to play with the pet or let them out for bathroom breaks. Night time walks and feeding based on owner's instructions. On weekends I like to hike or go with the pups at a local park. I like Hill of Life or Mueller Park. Sunday farmers market if permitting.
