Experienced, level-headed fella!

Pet care experience

I've loved, and been around, animals of all sorts my whole life. From family members of my own ("pets" if you must), to years of caring for animals in contexts ranging from a pet store/animal clinic, to boarding kennels, to farms, to walking/petsitting.

Jeff was incredible. Filled in last minute after a last-minute cancellation, and took great care of our house, dogs, and cat — took the dogs for walks at a park, checked in regularly, and the house was in even better shape when we came back than when we left. Genuinely amazing, so lucky to have found him here!

Jeff would make a great pet caregiver. He's always gone out of his way to help animals of all kinds. Rescuing, working in a pet store and caring for his own animals at home. He'd be great!

Jeff has been very caring for my cats, especially for my late cat who fell ill and needed a lot of attention and care. Every time he sees a dog he smiles and is immediately in a happy mood. He is a 100% animal lover through and through.

Jeff has always been great with animals. He's a very caring and gentle pet care giver and has been since he was a little boy. I highly recommend this young man!

Safety, trust & environment

My current apartment doesn't allow any animal visitors, unfortunately (my wife and I have one little cat of our own, hopefully adding another soon!). My calm, friendly demeanor seems to put most animals at ease. See above for relevant experience info. Can't wait to meet you & your friends!

Information Jeff R. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs/medical conditions, likes/dislikes, activity level, comfort around other animals (how are they meeting other animals on walks, dog parks, etc.), anything you can think of that would make our time together comfortable and stimulating

A typical day

I am active and love playing with animals, so long walks/hikes, throwing a ball, (safe) swimming, wrestling...it's all on the table! Just the hills and parks around here make for fun, easy outings. I'm also experienced (and patient) with taking it real easy for senior and special needs animals.
