Pet care experience

I honestly have a lifetime of pet care experience as growing up our house was a bit of a managerie. I can't wait to meet your fur babies. Honestly just making friends with your pets as a reason enough for me to do this job. The money is just a bonus. 😊😊

Jeff took adequate care of my dog. My house was not left as it was. On the day I was coming home he sent me a msg that she had an accident in the house: “Hey so I stayed pretty late I left about 15 minutes ago. She's had her dinner aid she's been outside and we took a small walk this morning. She did finally have an accident unfortunately which was totally my fault I was passed out sleeping and I did the best I could clean it up with what I had I needed something to scrub it with really it's covered and right on the entryway into the bedroom I was sleeping in.” He also changed his Rover contact number and stopped communicating with me after I put pictures in the chat of the carpet and marks left on the kitchen wall that were not present when I left. Therefore Rover would be able to review them. Furthermore, things in the house were out of place and a few items I am still looking for. I am going to have to have my carpet professionally cleaned. Hopefully the wall marks will wash off. In my first stay with Jeff he said my dog was needy but admitted to walking her only once. He also left a vape in my house the first stay and also left things out of place so I had reservations going into this second booking with Jeff but decided to give him the benefit of the doubt since I had a short turnaround between trips. I also made the mistake of overlooking these shortcomings in my first review of him. If you book Jeff for house and pet sitting be aware that he takes on multiple jobs. He assured me it would not be a problem but I feel his attention to detail was lacking for my two experiences with him. I left instructions to give her a teaspoon of pumpkin with meals and the can in the refrigerator was as full as when I left. To recap not being able to take care of a basic need to let her out in the fenced in yard to go to the bathroom is an issue for me. Tired or not that is what I hired him for. His last message to me stated that I was too much and good luck with my next sitter.

Jeff took excellent care of my dog. She was well and happy when I got back. He also took great care of my house, everything was as I left it. He brought the mail in and did other routine daily living household chores. I will book again.

I’m extremely disappointed in the care my dogs received. Jeff arrived almost two hours after he was supposed to and left 4 hours early. I paid for 48 hours and did not get that. My dogs were not taken out as requested. I left very detailed information as to when to feed my dogs and walk them and that was not followed. Vaping was done in my house. I will be filing a complaint with rover as well.

I can only care for pets inside your home and I will do so in whatever way you so choose. I will take care of your pets and home as if they were my own.

Information Jeff W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know about any special requests and as many details as you can as early as you can. Knowing is half the battle after all. Now this is covered under our profiles but I want to make sure there's no confusion since I ran into that a couple times, but during the days especially on weekdays I will be gone multiple times a day for other work. I will not be gone any longer than my profile dictates, I will simply be back and forth a little bit. Honestly I need to look at how Rover list this in our profiles by looking at other people's to see why it keeps getting missed, I wouldn't doubt it if it was the app itself. Thank you for your time and I hope to meet you and your little ones soon. ???

A typical day

I tend to prefer neighborhood walks, especially if I've never been there myself before. It's always an interesting time and to be honest it's really the dog that's taking me for a tour. Exploring together is always blast.

I only work for myself so my schedule is fairly malleable given enough notice. I do work quite a lot but will always be back for lunch and at night to keep your best friends company when I'm sitting. I can do up to three visits today as well and can be pretty flexible on the time depending on the distance. I don't like to just do the work and then bounce without giving your animals some loving and scritches. I want them to know their loved, Even when their own humans aren't around. Unfortunately Rover only allows us to set one radius for all services we perform which is fairly frustrating for both The sitter and client. Since that has not been changed yet I will clarify here. The current shown 25 mile radius is for walks and drop-ins only. House sitting would be 15 miles give or take as a general radius. Now feel free to make offers I'll consider anything because you never know right so please don't hesitate to talk toe about your offer and terms. Also I know there's one question that I've already covered on my profile that I will cover again to clarify because it's become an issue sadly. That is to whether or not when house sitting I will be at your home full time on the weekday now I'm not even sure what Rover means by that question but for me the answer no means is that I have a life and lots of other work outside of this and so I will spend the night during the week at your house of course and I will be back and forth during the day usually, some days I might be there all day, it depends entirely on the schedule for that week. For reference the 4 to 8 hour window that my profile says I can provide also includes when I'm house sitting. I will be back at the very least once every 4 to 8 hours block on average for at least one hour on average. I will be spending every night there and there will likely be a day or two where I spend the entire day there as well. I hope that clarifies. 😊
