About Jeff
My name is Jeff Arnett and I grew up in Canada. My background is in graphic design, but my true love is hanging with my dogs and this JenniFurrr chick. I have 7 pets of my own (all rescues!!) 2 dogs: Puck, a lab/pointer hound mix. Echo, a furry mix- Icelandic Sheepdog?. 5 cats: LuLu, Phoenix, Mardi Jane, Sid Vicious and Fin. And 1 gecko named Gordon.
I am also the man behind Rollerdog. I have been skating with dogs for over a decade and it's the most fun one can have with a four legged friend. Right now I skate between 6-10 different dogs week, and you can usually spot me cruising down Escarpment or Beckett.
More About Jeff
What are your favorite things about Austin?
The hidden little gems that only Austin can offer, like a great hike right off MoPac or a dive bar with some local band rocking out.
Dogs vs. Cats, who's your favorite?
For hiking and rollerblading I gotta go with the Puppys, Cats just don't get going fast enough to have an enjoyable skate. If i'm watching a movie or taking a nap then I gotta go with a warm purring kitty.
What would you be doing if you didn't own your pet sitting business?
Try and figure out another way to make money Rollerblading with dogs. Either that or work as a Ski Instructor, Park Ranger or own a Bed and Breakfast.
Who is your favorite band of all time?
Talking Heads - David Bryne is pure genuis.
What is a special skill that you possess?
Jennifer calls me a McGuyver in the kitchen. She seems to think I can take the most unlikely ingredients and turn them into an amazing meal.
What do you like to do when you're not pet sitting?
My two other favorite things are watching/playing hockey and playing disc golf with friends.
