Jon can care for
Availability
I just graduated from college so my flexible schedule allows me to accommodate walks, feeding schedules, playtime, potty breaks, and personalized care throughout the week, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether caring for energetic puppies or senior dogs needing extra patience and comfort, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs and routine.

About Jon C.
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I keep their normal routine consistent by following feeding instructions, providing fresh water, regular potty breaks, exercise, and companionship so they feel safe and comfortable. I'll closely monitor each pet’s needs and behavior, including special care for puppies, senior pets, or those needing medication.
Information Jon C. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, personality, and any special needs so I can make them feel as comfortable and safe as possible. Helpful details include feeding schedules, medications, allergies, favorite activities, behavior around other animals or people, bathroom routines, and anything that may cause stress or anxiety. I also appreciate knowing their veterinarian information, emergency contacts, and any house rules or training commands you’d like me to follow.
A typical day
I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy while they’re with me. Depending on their personality and energy level, we’ll enjoy walks, fetch, tug-of-war,enrichment games, and plenty of playtime indoors or outside. I also make time for relaxing routines, basic reinforcement training, and lots of attention so they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away.

Pet care experience
What sets me apart is the level of love, patience, and personal attention I give every dog in my care. I treat each pet like family, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I focus on creating a calm and positive experience tailored specifically to them.
Reviews
Jon has helped provide care for multiple of my dogs over the last six years. He has truly become a reliable, compassionate, and attentive part of me and my dogs lives. Jon has always found a way to show each dog individualized care based on their needs and personality. I have left instructions for feeding and specified bathroom routines and I have always been pleased with how closely he has followed these outlines. I wouldn't trust my babies with just anyone, and I am beyond grateful to know someone like Jon who will show them love just as I do. Your pets will be in great hands with Jon!
Looking for a responsible, dependable and caring individual to help you with your pet needs? No need to look any further. As a dog owner himself, he treats his pets like family and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for. He is friendly, trustworthy, and easy to work with, and he genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. He is flexible and committed to giving pets the best care possible. Any pet owner can feel confident knowing their furry family members are in loving and capable hands with him.
Jon truly loves animals and cares for them deeply. He is incredibly patient with our three dogs and always follows care instructions thoroughly. He naturally connects with every dog he meets and is just as wonderful with my friend’s two cats as well. Anyone would feel lucky to have their pet in Jon’s care. You can trust that your pets will be cared for and loved as if they were his own!
I can honestly attest to the fact that Jon Collard absolutely loves animals. He has cared for our high anxiety German short haired pointer and my 8 month old monster, Emmett. Jon is honest to his core,patient and dedicated to whatever he sets his mind to. You will not have to worry about your fur baby
