Happy guy who loves animals!

Pet care experience

I grew up in a household with 5 dogs, quickly becoming the neighborhood dog-sitter of my suburb. This prepared me for pet sitting as a means to pay my own way through a college degree at Miami University (Ohio). I help my parents on their new farm which includes animals of all kinds (alpaca, sheep, rabbits), and I pet-sit to help me from getting pets of my own. Until I am ready, then I will have plenty. I've played soccer all of my life, my primary profession is in the performing arts as an actor and playwright. I love to use animals to help inspire characters in my works, so if your pet has a personality worth sharing, it may make it to the stage. ;)

Jon stayed with our two pups for a long weekend and was fantastic. He’s attentive and communicates well. You can tell he genuinely cares about dogs which is very assuring. He’s a nice guy and left our apartment tidy. Will definitely be reaching out to him next time we travel!

Jon was absolutely great with Tucker. We are new to the area and it’s always hard trusting your baby with someone but Jon treated Tucker like his own and Tucker came home happy as could be! I look forward to Tuckers next trip with Jon and I know he does too! :)

I needed a sitter last minute for our cat Monster this past weekend and luckily Jon was available. He was quick to respond, communicated with us, sent us pictures and took time to hang out with Monst so he wasn't lonely. Thanks again for everything and will definitely be in touch in the future!

So many reasons why Jon is the right guy... 1. Responsible - our initial meeting , he listened and TOOK NOTES!! regarding our dogs needs and his responsibilities. 2. Charming - he is genuinely courteous and easy-going. He stays "present". 3. Communicative - he sent text messages and photos to assure all was well. 4. Follow through - our dogs were relaxed and happy to be taken care of by Jon (and we were relaxed and happy too!) Go with Jon. You will not be disappointed.
