Safety, trust & environment

I have a nice spacious yard to take dogs out and play catch in. My household is a child free zone and is kept clean. There are no small things for them to eat or choke on and most everything is stored off the floors so there is nothing that can get into. Pets are allowed on beds and couches unless you prefer them not to. The house is kept cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Information Jonathon T. would like to know about your pet

Please let me be aware of any dietary needs or allergies. Also let me know if there is a strick no human food rule. My grandmother visits sometimes and is a known treat giver. I just need to know how closely I need to watch her. I am comfortable administering medications but would appreciate a heads up. Please let me know if there is anything I shouldn't do as to not trigger them or if there is anything they absolutely love. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable here.

A typical day

I enjoy spending time outside so there will be plenty of fetch and tug of war being played. Taking your dog on w long walk if the perfect excuse to get out of the house. I do not have many commitments outside the house so they will hardly ever be alone. No lonely little guys here! Only all the love I can give!

Pet care experience

I believe pets are the best thing that has happened to human kind and should be appreciated for all the joy and love they bring us. I grew up with and helped care for a cat colony for 15+ years. My favorite dog growing up, Bobbie a cute Pekingese, had seizures and my favorite cat, coffee an American short hair, had diabetes. I can't remember a time in my life where my family and I weren't watching or taking in someone's dog or cat wether it was only a day or for years. Now that I have my own space I would like to continue the tradition of sharing my home with fur friends. With all the animals I've taken care of I'd like to think I'm qualified for this job. I'm excited to meet and take care your best friend and give them all the love I possibly can.

It was our first time leaving our high energy nine month old pup with anyone, and Jonathon was as great as we could've hoped for. All instructions followed, pup came back happy as ever. Thanks!!!!
