NOT A TYPICAL SH*TTY ROVER SITTER!

Pet care experience

As a life-long pet owner and a former Certified Veterinary Technician, I realize the peace of mind that comes with hiring someone that considers your pets like family, and takes excellent care of them. From cats to dogs, snakes to spiders, or fishes to ferrets, or even lizards to lovebirds, the health and welfare of your pets (whatever the species) is my top priority! I love photography, too, so you will likely get lots of frame-able pic updates of your pet(s)! I volunteered at an animal shelter and worked at a doggy daycare in Chicago, so my life pretty much revolves around animals. I look forward to loving your animal companions. Please contact me today! P.S.- if you board with me, my Wife is a licensed vet tech, so you can rest assured your pet(s) will be in good hands!

Ron took exceptional care of Lokey and sent some really cute and thoughtful photos of him with Kodi and Sage! Lokey was left with Ron, Sage and Kodi a very energetic boi and came home pooped which is how I know he had a good time! Lokey will absolutely stay again with Ron, Sage and Kodi! He had a heckin good time!

Ron was great with our dog, Bourbon! He took him on hikes, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated the whole time. Bourbon was sad to say goodbye. Will use Ron again!

Ron sat Loki for 8 days. He was fantastic, sent several updates with pictures. Loki is a high energy dog and he took him to the dog park several times, and also swimming which Loki loves. Highly recommended Ron!

Information Ron J. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know how your dog is around other dogs, if they are good with kids & adults, if they need to be house trained…anything that helps tailor our time together. Also important is if they are up to date on vaccines, if they are microchipped, if they are fixed, his/her age & sex, and the breed. Please note I will only board your dog if they are fixed and microchipped. This is for their safety.

A typical day

One of my favorite things to do is simply take a walk outside with your pup(s)! I'm sure your dog(s) will LOVE it! There's lots to see & sniff (and mark LOL) out there. Another fun activity is a short and rewarding training session where we can work on any behavioral issues your dog(s) may have, or teach your dog some new tricks! Besides nature hikes and enrichment, nothing beats a good ol' game of fetch in the backyard! Maybe some tug-of-war...with lots of treats and belly rubs thrown in for good measure. :)
