Pet care experience

Dog walking enthusiast

Grew up in a big yellow Labrador retriever family. Have watched pets for friends my whole life, including feeding, bathing, and taking them out. Since I moved to Chicago I’ve also hosted dogs in my apartment when friends/their humans are out of town.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home (1br apartment with hardwood floors) pets are allow to roam freely. I have space for a crate if you place them in one for any reasons throughout the day. My apartment has an fenced outdoor balcony one floor above my building’s courtyard which pets can wander onto so long as they do not bark/make too much noise. It is also easy to keep the doors to the balcony shut as well if a dog should not go out on it. In others’ homes I default to the rules and preferences set forth by owners. Will defer to any instructions or asks made when taking care of your pet!

Jon gave my boy a workout, which he needed! Ronan's tail was every time he sees him coming to our door, excited for his walk.

Jon saved the day! We needed a last minute dog walker and he was able to come within an hour. We were so appreciative! He’s great with our dog.

Schedule

I’m free most nights and weekends to care for pets. Whether it’s a quick visit to let your dog out or longer bookings I’m able to be flexible for your pet’s needs

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Jon can host up to 5 drop-ins per day
Please be sure to let me know if your dog has any “quirks” or “tells” for common needs. I want to be responsive if it needs to be taken out, if it’s feeling unwell, or just begging for more food.
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.
