Highlights
Pet care experience
Passionate Pet Lover Extraordinaire
I have taken care of dogs and cats, but mostly dogs my entire life. I grew up with Dachshunds, but equally love big dogs. All of my dogs have been rescues. I have been dog sitting for over 15 years. My last experience was taking care of a 100 lb German Shepherd Luda, in Thailand for 8 months. I taught her to overcome her fear of water and even how to rescue drowned swimmers. I lived in the jungle at the owners home, on an island, and cared for her night and day, trained her to be around people, and much more. I also took care of many other dogs on that island, from puppies to elder doggos. I have experience administering medication to dogs and cats, including insulin shots. I am a certified emergency first responder trainer, therefore safety is always number one in my mind. Animals are one of my greatest passions in life. I strive to go above and beyond and take my role as caretaker extremely seriously. I look forward to loving your buddy or buddette like they were my own.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will be traveling to your home and will go above and beyond to give your dog an abundance of love, excercise, cuddles, or whatever they require.
Ratings and reviews
He was not with the girls very much even though I specifically asked how long his work days were and let him know I didn’t want them to be alone 12 hours a day. That’s exactly what happened except for 1-2 days out of 8 days
Jonathan took amazing care of my babies while I went out of town!! I was so nervous to leave them with someone who wasn’t a part of our family but felt very at ease with Jonathan. (He actually ended up taking even better care of the babies than they did lol) He updated me through out the day with texts and pictures, stuck to their schedule, and won over my more skeptical pup really quickly! I returned to a clean home and could tell my pups were expecting Jonathan when I came through the door. I will absolutely be rebooking!!
Jonathan is absolutely wonderful with our three large dogs. He maintained their daily activity and showered them with lots of love. We will definitely be using Jonathan again!
Perfect. Jonathan was fantastic with my (new and ... exuberant) dog and my mature cat. He's very responsive and thoughtful, sent plenty of photos, and was an awesome troubleshooter. I'd book him again in a heartbeat.
Jonathan was so great with our anxious pup! He sent us pictures every day, and left the house spotless when we returned. We'd definitely contact Jonathan next time we need a dog sitter.
Jonathan was great. McNulty loved him.Let us know what was happening while we were away and left everything good at the house. Will definitely have him again. J&S

Schedule
I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I would love to have longterm clients and a consistent schedule, but I am equally flexible.
