Pet care experience

Top notch care and attention!

Will give your fur baby the attention they need. In my clean home, they will have multiple places to get comfy including their own room with queen size bed if they like. Dogs always seem to follow their care giver so there are comfy spots available all throughout the home. I will adhere to strict diet restrictions and will be sure to take them for a long walk at least twice a day. There is also a huge field close to my home to run with them if that is wanted.

This was my first time using a dog sitter and leaving my dog for an extended period, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The dog sitter took excellent care of my dog, was attentive, friendly, and helped him adjust quickly to a new environment. A key factor in making the transition so smooth was the sitter's willingness to understand my dog's personality, routines, and quirks. Being able to share detailed information about his temperament and care needs gave me confidence that he was in good hands. Overall, I greatly appreciated the care, communication, and attention provided. I would gladly request this sitter again for future needs and highly recommend their services.

Jonathan was great with our pups. We felt really comfortable leaving our 2 dogs with him. We really liked that he doesnt take multiple dogs .

Doggy Day Care • Aug 15, 2025

Jonathan was an excellent sitter. He communicated well with prompt replies to all Rover inquiries, was flexible and understanding regarding drop-off and pick-up times, and revealed a good chemistry in his interactions with the dogs. I'll definitely hire his Doggy Day Care services again. Thank you.

Jonathan exceeded my expectations and went above and beyond while taking care of my dog Levi. Despite Levi's size and energy level, I felt at ease the whole time I was away due to Jonathan's confidence and professionalism during the pre-dropoff meeting. Would absolutely trust him with either of my dogs again in the future.

Jonathan did an exceptional job watching Poncho. He was incredibly patient, attentive, and always made sure Poncho was well-exercised and entertained. He also took great care in ensuring Poncho's diet was balanced and enjoyable, even adjusting his food to keep him happy and healthy. Overall, Jonathan was a fantastic caregiver for Poncho!

Jonathon watched my two dogs while I was out of state for Thanksgiving. He cared for them as if they were his own and went above and beyond to guarantee that they were comfortable. Trust me. This is the guy you want to watch your dogs!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a fenced in community but will always have your dog on a leash while outside. The back patio is also enclosed in case your pup likes to catch those sun rays.

A typical day

Typical day for your dog while in my care would be long walks or playing in a field early in the morning and during sunset. I could also take them for a ride in the jeep with the top down to get a quick coffee or boba tea. They could also lay in the sun on the back patio. If requested, I could take them to the dog beach to spend the day outside.

I don’t have a preference for breeds as long as your dog is friendly with humans. If they do not get along with other dogs, I will ensure we stay far away from them. I have experience with this and know how to divert their attention.
