Pet care experience

Walks, Snuggles, Smiles & Reliable!

I've been taking care of dogs since i was a kid. I had my first pet when I was 8 and been a dog lover ever since. Now I have my own two little troublemakers Tobi and Canela, who I've had for 6 years and 2 years respectively. I've had them both since they were small puppies so I have a lot of experience with puppy care. I live a pretty active lifestyle so I love to go for long walks with my dogs and I would definitely be providing the same for your pets. I love to play with dogs and I've definitely been guilty of buying far too many toys for my pups to play with. I provide house sitting, overnight stays, dog walking services during work hours, and puppy care. I love to take pictures of animals so you'd also be receiving lots of playtime pictures! Your pets will be my passion and I'm ready to provide any and all services at a good affordable rate!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a lot of experience with crate training as my younger dog needed it to curb her destructive tendencies when she was left alone at home. I also have plenty of experience with potty training as I've trained both my dogs to be potty trained to go on their pads when they need to potty while I'm away. For any drop in visits I would make sure your pet has had a good amount of enrichment play and gotten plenty of love and affection before my visit with them ends

House Sitting • Jun 23, 2026

Jonathan went above and beyond. He was there for the dogs and kept them on schedule. He provided lots of photos and messages to keep in the loop of all that was ongoing. He picked up after them in the yard when it wasn’t expected. He even brought a toy for one of the dogs when the dog destroyed one of their toys at playtime. I would highly recommend you give Jonathan a go for your pets.

Jonathan was awesome with my dog Thor. Absolutely loved every picture he sent on all drop in visits with him while I was away for a weekend, Thor was always super excited to see him and it was like he had been taking care of him for years based on his reaction. Highly recommend

Jonathan did an excellent job looking after my cat and keeping him company while I was away on vacation. Very responsive, and provided detailed updates. Would recommend any time.

Schedule

I work full time M-F 9-5 but can squeeze time in between my lunch break for any type of care. I typically have very free weekends allowing me to take care of your pets whenever it's needed. I work by the Buffalo Niagara airport so depending on the location I can even provide a quick check-in during my lunch breaks at work.

If there is any special care that is required I will make sure I follow it all to the T! And if I have any questions I'd be sure to check in ahead of time
