Pet care experience

I speak woof 🐶

Growing up on a game farm in South Africa, I have had all kind of pets my entire life and got my first pup when I was 3. As someone who use Rover as a service for years, I have always been picky and scared about who I leave my pup with. Now being on the receiving end, I want to assure you that your loved one will be in great hands with me. I am active and often go on walks. I follow directions exactly as stated and I don’t mind bombing you with photos if you want :) Single with no kids so I’m pretty much available 24/7 however I might be busy on some weekends. I do walks every 2 or 4 hours or I will spend the day outside. I have an apartment that I share with my one year old puppy Roxy. My apartment is free range but I will crate your pup if requested. The only rule I have is that cuddle time is all the time 😜

Tjaart provided videos and frequent updates of Nellie. She was clearly in great hands. Would be happy to use again in future.

We had an amazing experience with Tjaart! He and his girlfriend took exceptional care of our dogs, ensuring they felt loved and safe while we were away. Our furry friends were happy and well-exercised, Communication was prompt and thorough, providing us with peace of mind. We highly recommend Tjaart to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their pets.

Tjaart is great with our dog and gives him so much love and care. We are a repeat customer and feel confident leaving our dog in his care.
