Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Being at home all day long with the exception of going for a daily walk for about an hour which can include the pets that I care for, allows me to be very attentive to the dogs and cats that I'm entrusted with during your time away.
Ratings and reviews
What a comforting, piece of mind feeling Jay gave us while we were away. He was responsive and willing to give lots of updates and pictures of our dogs. . He left our home as clean and when we left. He also, noticed our pool needing a little attention and took care of it. I know our home and more importantly our fur babies had great care and lots of love.
Jay did an amazing job watching our supreme being, Lelu! With our vacation being the longest time away from Lelu yet, he really made sure that she was cared for and spoiled. She can get very depressed when we are gone and doesn't want to do much. Jay watched and listened to her needs to adjust to what she was in the mood for. He even took great care of my plants while we were gone! We came home to an overjoyed baby girl. Thanks again, Jay!
We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! From the moment we met Jay, we knew our two dogs were in caring and capable hands. He kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and genuinely well cared for. We’re so grateful for the love and attention they received and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!
Ron (Jay) was wonderful with our fur babies, Cocoa & Poppy! He kept the girls active and engaged every day while letting us know regularly that all was well. He even had a spontaneous 4th of July celebration with them that was quite a hoot and I’m sure made them feel extra special. We were able to fully relax and know that the girls and our home were in good hands. Thank you Jay for giving us that peace of mind. I would highly recommend him and will use him in the future.
All of the pets and home were well cared-for and the frequent status updates provided reassurance and peace of mind! Thanks, Jay!
I cannot say enough great things about Jay (Ronald)… but I’m gonna try. I had a sitter cancel last second, and even though it completely stressed me out, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, Jay is the best person you could have in your home and my pets had exceptional care the entire time I was across the country. Jay kept in touch constantly with videos and messages, he gave my dogs lots of treats, walks, attention, love and their daily medications. Both my dogs are seniors and he catered to their needs. Jay went above and beyond to even make sure my tortoise was well fed and gave all the wild birds outside seed, as I do, every single morning. I came home to a very clean home and the happiest of pupps. I am so thankful and grateful to have met Jay and I appreciate his kind heart and love for animals. I will most definitely be recommending Jay to everybody I know and use him moving forward. All of my animals are missing him. Thank you so much Jay!

Schedule
Most of my time is spent doing software development. I get up early in the morning for concentrated work time. Taking care of dogs and cats fits very well with my lifestyle and is a perfect complement to my software development activities.
