Highlights
Pet care experience
Peace of mind dog care
Loving and caring pet professional and caretaker. This is more than just a hobby. I have worked with animals since I was 17 and have worked as an animal trainer and as a Veterinary Surgical Technician. I am an avid dog lover, and love working with all dogs but have a soft spot for those that need a little extra love and attention, as well as, older dogs and those with medical issues that require specific care and medications. I'm available everyday and most holidays. I'll spend a lot of time playing with them and they'll go on plenty of walks. I have worked in different kennel situations and have cared for all types of pets. I worked at The Seeing Eye in Morristown, Nj where I would care for 40 dogs at any given time. Why I love dog sitting? Animals are my passion and I have been a dog lover my entire life. So much so that I decided to started working with animals at the age of 17, and have worked in many aspects animal industry including breeding, training, veterinarian care, boarding and as groomers assistant. I now consider myself a pet professional and dog sitting is more than just a hobby. When it comes to administering medication Given that I have worked as a Veterinary Surgical Technician I have no problem administering medication and have no problem following specific instructions.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Jonathan took care of my 10 cats for a few days while we were on a trip. He did a great job and was able to administer injections to my diabetic cat which was wonderful. He kept me thoroughly updated on my cats which gave me peace of mind while I was away from them. I would definitely book him again.
Jonathan was great with both of our dogs. He had great communication, sent us pictures and videos of the girls. He was also accommodating when our flight was canceled and we had to book an extra 2 days with him. We would definitely re-book with him in the future!
Very professional, took great care of my shy dog Koko. She will be back!
Jonathan was great with Nellie! He had her for the 4th and she is scared of fireworks, he made sure to give her a safe place to decompress and use white noise to try and drown out the sound. He was communicative and I received daily updates!
Jonathan was very nice and took a good care of Bowie
Jonathan was great with Tito. Very attentive, provided daily pics/updates. I would definitely rebook with Jonathan whenever my family goes away again!

Schedule
I run my own business and dog sitting is something I do full time with my girlfriend Desirha. We have the time to play with your dog and even take them on long walks. I try to mimic whatever your routine is at home so that your pup can keep his routine.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My yard is completely fenced in and we never leave the pups unsupervised while out in the yard. My girlfriend Desirha has been dog sitting with me for over 6 years and works from home, so your pup would always have someone with them during their stay.
A typical day
We are active people and enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities. We love to hike and go on long walks, so your dog would enjoy some great outdoor fun hitting some local trails or simply taking a stroll through the neighborhood.
