Pet care experience

Dog whisperer extraordinaire

I've always had a natural connection with dogs since childhood. Dogs have always gravitated to my calm energy and ability to sense their needs. Your dog will not just be taken care of but will feel safe like they're spending time with an old friend.

Before I tell you how wonderful Jeff is (and he is wonderful) I need to provide a background as to how we selected Jeff as our sitter. We were in need of a sitter for our four dogs as our previous sitter decided to leave Rover and focus on her artwork. I then began my search on Rover for a new sitter and I interviewed over a dozen potential candidates but none of them worked out. One husband and wife team appeared to be great but when it came down to asking them if they would sit for our dogs, they never returned my text messages. A couple of other potential sitters were offended because I was transparent with them and told them I was in fact interviewing other candidates. Some of the other sitters were a bit too young so we did not feel comfortable leaving our dogs with them for twelve days. My search continued and I came across Jeff’s name for the first time. I know he was new to Rover and for some reason that did not bother me. So, I contacted Jeff and we are so happy I did! Jeff is mature, respectful, and kind. We talked for quite awhile and I knew my search was over as I knew Jeff was going to be our sitter. I was so confident, I told him we were looking for a long-term relationship in a sitter and he agreed it was a good idea. When Jeff came for a meet and greet, our four dogs fell in love with him. One of our dogs has anxiety so he is our gauge as to whether a sitter will work or not. Jeff walked up to Wrangler and Wrangler was not his anxious crazy self but instead was pretty calm. This is all because of Jeff’s calm demeanor. We didn’t have a care in the world when we left our dogs with Jeff and went on vacation. Jeff cared for them and played with them many times a day. He took some of them for walks and helped them burn off energy. Jeff kept us informed as to how the dogs were doing and at one point I told him I didn’t need too many updates because I had complete trust in him. We have used Jeff a couple of times since our original vacation and each time we came home our dogs were so calm and relaxed and not stressed from us being away. We have already have booked Jeff for a few other visits and we will continue our relationship with him. As I noted previously, I knew we were going to be one of Jeff’s first clients but I never saw hiring him as a risk because of the conversation we had. I cannot stress enough that you should give Jeff a chance. At minimum contact him and have a conversation with him and I am confident you will select him as your sitter. We have four dogs and taking care of them is not easy but Jeff has done it multiple times!

Jeff has helped me for years with my 2 dachshunds. He checks on them if I'm going to be out for a long period. He has stayed over and cared for them when Ive gone on vacation. The dogs love him and are very happy to see him when he comes. He's diligent with their food and medication.
