About: I believe a happy pet is a reflection of the love and care they are receiving from their family as well the love they’re receiving from caregivers like myself. I also believe that a well behaved pet is just as beneficial to the family as it is to the animals themselves. That’s why I try to live by and practice the same principles in my life that I also make it a priority to provide to my clients and their loving companions by guaranteeing those basic principles which are communication, compassion, and commitment which always come from a place of respect and kindness. And it shouldn’t come as a surprise when I say that I’ve found that most animals respond extremely well to this type of positive reinforcement, recognizing and often craving this kind of balanced energy that makes for better relationships all around. That’s why I feel that this approach of mutual respect between myself and the animals that I care for is often contagious with other animals, especially whenever I have more than one with me because I genuinely believe the animals are not only more intelligent than most people believe, but more importantly and not unlike humans, animals are happier and more relaxed when there is structure and harmony in the group. And that structure shouldn’t be confused with inappropriate obedience methods that in my experience are often a result of someone’s inability to practice patience and or simple acts of kindness and compassion, whether it be with an animal or another human being. That’s why I love being around animals and other people that love and appreciate them, especially those that are willing to love and care for the ones that can’t advocate for themselves! My daily routine revolves around what is important to me, and that is my health and my passion, which is loving and caring for animals! I believe Pets are most comfortable in their own environment which is why I prefer caring for pets in their own homes if and when this is possible. I find it better for everyone, including the pets when I’m a guest in their space because I’m obviously aware of my boundaries as a guest in their home, and the pets are usually aware of what they’re allowed to do being in the space they’re accustomed to.

About: I have provided pet care services for friends over the last ten years while friends and neighbors have enjoyed time away on vacations. I can promise that your dogs and cats will be cared for properly, given daily walks, and be provided interactive play time. I have a full-time job which provides flexibility in my daily schedule. I can develop a schedule that works between the client and myself to ensure the needs of the pets are covered. I will offer a time to meet the owners and pets before any service in order to create a trusting and safe environment for the client.

We won’t hesitate to work with him again.”

Ashley R.
“Hi. I’m Denise. I wanted to write a recommendation for Ashley. Ashley has been my neighbor for all of her life. Ashley has walked my dog Riley from 2010 to 2015. Ashley would do daily walks, drop in visits that would include feedings and giving treats. Riley’s most enjoyable time with Ashley was belly rubs and playing in the backyard!!”




Michael M.

“This is the first time in 9 years we have left our great dane with anyone. Michael treated our dog like his own. It was more like a vacation for our dog too than having a stranger care for him. He sent us pictures and regular updates. Thank you so much for making us feel comfortable.”
