Pet care experience

Caring and responsible dog lover!

I grew up with a Golden Retriever during my childhood and have loved dogs ever since. After I graduated from college I lived with a roommate and took care of their Shiba Inu / Husky mix for up to a week at a time when they traveled for work. I walked, fed, and bathed the dog for almost a year. For the past three years I routinely dog-sit and house-sit for a family and their two dogs - one large and one small. I have loved the experience and grown very comfortable with all aspects of caring for a dog.

Jonathan is great! Very communicative and easy to schedule with. My dog, Theo, adores him and always tries to stay longer at pick up.

Jonathan is great! Based on the pictures he shared during our pup’s time with him, I’d say our dog agrees too - he always looked so comfortable and happy in Jonathan's space.

Jonathan was friendly and read all our dog's information even before our meet-and-greet, but unfortunately didn’t adhere to the dog-walking schedule we requested.

Jonathan is an awesome Rover. Great communication, easy to work with, and experienced with leash reactive dogs like mine is. I felt so comfortable with Lexi in his care and highly recommend him if you’re looking for a Rover.

Jonathan took excellent care of Beamer while we were away. He was accommodating on pick up and drop off times, a great communicator, and my dog seemed very happy. Would gladly have him watch my sweet boy again. Thank you Jonathan!

Jonathan did a great job watching our dog Meatball! We will definitely book him again in the future

I am very trustworthy and reliable and will follow any directions you have for caring for your dog in my apartment or your home. I have a car and am able to travel for dog-sitting and house-sitting.

I like to go for multiple daily walks and happy to take them to the park or to hang out in a public dog-friendly space if they are well trained for it!
