We had a wonderful experience with Jerry! He was reliable, caring, and kept us updated with messages and photos while we were away. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our dog oso was in such good goods.

We have a very independent dog. She loves who she loves and hates who she hates. She instantly took to Jerry. We did a pre meet and greet and she instantly gave him belly’s and brought out her favorite toys. He sent me pictures daily and messaged any time a question came up. We have multiple trips planned this year and look forward to Jerry staying in our home and taking care of our girl in her happy place. Thank you Jerry!

I just moved to South Carolina a month ago and had to be away a couple of days this past weekend. I was quite anxious having to find someone to stay in my home and take care of my sweet, Nala. She is older, is a rescue, is a large dog, and the move was alot for her. I arranged a meet with Jerry and I was at ease right away; more importantly, Nala was at ease right away. I think dogs sense immediately if a person is a good fit or not. The day I had to leave, Jerry showed up on time (a bit early, actually, which I truly appreciated) and Nala was very excited to see him. Jerry sent many pictures and texts about how things were going over the two days, let me know when he had to leave for awhile and communicated when he was back. Nala needs alot of love and Jerry was attentive and very willing to give affection to her. The stay could not have gone better. Jerry was also very respective of my home and took good care of everything while I was gone. I highly recommend Jerry and am grateful I found him on Rover.

Jerry was my favorite to help with my dog Tootsie. He followed my instructions every time. Tootsie loved her walks and playtime with Jerry. I would recommend him to anyone looking for help with their pets

Schedule

I work a five-day-a-week schedule, but my commitment to your pets is flexible and strong! I'm available for walks, drop-ins, and care visits before and after my work hours on weekdays. If your pet needs a midday check-in or potty break, I'm also happy to schedule a visit during my lunch break to ensure they're comfortable and happy throughout the day. Your pet's routine and well-being are my top priority, and we can discuss the best times that fit both our schedules.

I'm also experienced in managing specialized needs, whether it's administering medication, accommodating dietary restrictions, or providing extra patience for shy or anxious pets. You can trust that I'll pay close attention to every detail, ensuring your pet feels secure, happy, and their routine remains undisturbed in your absence.
