J's Pets, Plants & House Sitting Services Pet, plants and house sitting services in the Gladstone Area

Your home or Ours I live with my wife. I am an honest, reliable, long-term local resident.

I have recently taken early retirement, so I have all the time in the world to give your pet the best care and attention whilst in my care. Our two adult children no longer live at home, so it is just the two of us. During your pets stay they will be treated as part of our family and I will follow your care plan. We love having indoor pets but they must be house trained. As part of the sitting fee

, daily walking of your dog/s is included in the price. Owner to provide pet food to ensure there is consistency in diet. I will also look after your pet at your home if you prefer and will include watering gardens, pot plants, collecting mail, etc if required. Depending on the level of work you are seeking we can determine a price based on time requirements. I have a current criminal history check certificate completed on 11 February 2021. How long are the dog walks or how many do you offer per day etc? Dogs who are in my care are walked and will normally get a minimum of 3km or this could change depending on the owners request i.e requirements/ health of the dog. How much time you can usually spend with guest pets on a daily basis? I have taken early retirement so I will have all the time to dedicate to your pet. I am home all day generally. Will you be home with the dogs all the time? Yes

What is your home like? We have a 3 bedroom low set home set on a 1090 square meter block. So plenty of room for your dog to run around. Where are the guest pets allowed to sleep? The pets are allowed to sleep inside as one of the requirements of them staying at our house is they are house trained. If you have a backyard, what is it like? Is it fully fenced? Our backyard is a fully fenced 1090 square meter block with plenty of open space for them to run around and explore. Are your gates safe and secured? We have secure gates but your dog will not be left unsupervised in our backyard as we have a relaxing outdoor area where we sit with our birds of a day. So I will be supervising whilst they are in the yard. About your services at the owner's home

I had another look at the song I wrote and produced called “The Pet Sitting Man.” It was a quick write, so I sat down and reworded it and decided it needed a more updated musical feel.

Thank you to everyone for sharing their pets with us over the years — you might even see a familiar face in the official video.

I hope you like it. I’d love to hear what you think, and if you enjoy it, please share it with your friends and family.

Last weekend I was watching a solo performance of James Taylor on TV, and he sang The Frozen Man, which I don’t think I’d heard before. I liked it so much that I started writing a song about The Last Lighthouse Man.

Fast forward to today: I have the day off, no pet sitting, and I really needed to catch up on yard work. There were weeds growing in the gutter, who would have thought that was a thing? I always thought somehow my yard had extended. So I grabbed a shovel and got to work. I think I might have even been sweating.

And then it happened, a song came to me about The Pet Sitting Man, inspired by James Taylor and my real-life experiences as a pet sitter. Who knew yard work could be so inspirational?
