Safety, trust & environment

I always treat a clients home and their pets as if they are my own. I appreciate the trust my clients put in to me and I always strive to maintain it.

Information Jon D. would like to know about your pet

I always appreciate it when clients give me as much info as possible in terms of not only what makes their pet comfortable, but any medications or feeding schedules they might be on. I also always prefer doing a meet and greet prior to our first appointment so the client and pets can get to know me and I them.

A typical day

I love to interact with pets on their comfort level. Sometimes that means going on a long walk or playing with toys, and other times it’s just giving them some companionship. They are the boss!

Pet care experience

Pets are my passion. In addition to having my own animals over the years (including dogs of all sizes, cats and ferrets) I’ve also worked in the pet care industry for many years with experience in training, boarding, daycare, grooming and retail. Along with my partner Kaila and our family I currently reside with our service dog (a Great Dane named Hauss), our German Shepherd (Mina) and our plethora of cats (Buckets, Rowena, Pancake, Tomi, Zora and Freya). I’m currently a homeschooling dad and caregiver to a close family member which provides me with open availability to care for your furry family throughout the day. I’m currently available daily starting around 9am and look forward to meeting you and your pets. I’m currently not set up to provide care in my own residence, however, I’m happy to do so in the future if it becomes an option.

Jon and Kaila were hands-down, the best dog walker/sitters I’ve met with! I had two full days planned at Disney and decided to find someone to stop into our resort a couple times during the day so I didn’t have to board the dogs. My younger dog has some anxiety issues and they handled her like true professionals and she warmed up very quickly! They were so friendly and clearly love what they do! Very communicative and truly made my trip so much more fun and relaxing, knowing that my fur babies were being taken care of 😊 I will become a regular any time I go back to Orlando, which is fairly often. So grateful to have found them!

This is the 1st time we have Jon to have twice a day dip-in visits to care for my 2 pups. Jon is very good engaging Danny & Toothless. Thank you so much Jon!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
