If your console is filled with "Running X MS behind, skipping X ticks" then this is an indication that the PC time and Minecraft internal time do not match and can cause lag or worst case crashes. Fortunately, there is a quick fix to this.
The first step is to go to Scalacube.com and log in to your account.
Click on "Servers" and then, "Manage server".
Click "Manage" again.
Find "Settings" on the left tab and enter it.
Locate "server.properties" and click on "Change".
Scroll down until you find the setting for "max-tick-time=60000". Change this to "max-tick-time=-1" and click "Save".
Once your changes have been saved, click on Back and Reboot your server for the changes to take effect.
This will now disable server watchdog.
