About Jay, Your Pet Sitter.

I’m the human behind Salisbury Pet Sitting — equal parts therapist, writer, and devoted dachshund wrangler. For over a decade, I’ve been the reliable pet sitter when pet parents can’t be home, making sure tails keep wagging and whiskers keep twitching.

By day, I help people as a therapist and put words to work as a writer. In between, you’ll find me dog walking in West Harnham, doling out belly rubs, and negotiating with cats about the furniture. I’m fully DBS checked and insured, so you can head out knowing your pets and home are in safe, professional hands.

My own heart (and sofa) belongs to two rescued dachshunds who travelled all the way from South Africa to live with me. They both came from tough starts — anxious, reactive, and unsure of the world. Working with them taught me more about patience, trust, and canine body language than any textbook ever could.

If you’re looking for a pet sitter who combines experience, empathy, and a dash of humor…Someone who will treat your pets like family and send you photo updates that actually make you smile — you’ve just found me!
