About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine love and patience for dogs of all ages and needs. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and gentle senior dogs, including following specific feeding or exercise routines. I treat every dog like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I build my schedule around it to ensure each pet gets the attention and care they need. Whether it’s morning feedings, afternoon playtime, or evening walks and check-ins, I stay consistent and reliable. I enjoy the routine and the bond that comes from spending quality time with animals every day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I follow their routines closely to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they’re fed on time, get plenty of play and cuddle time, and stick to any walking, medication, or cleaning schedules provided. I keep the home tidy, send regular updates, and treat the space with respect—just like I would my own. My goal is to give both pets and owners peace of mind while they’re apart.

Love all the animals out there and can’t wait to help while you’re out! I love my current Orange furbabes, Oli and Ori but have had many cats and dogs that have come and gone, but can’t live without’em 🥹 Currently in between jobs after being laid off from my 9 year career but would potentially love to do this as a side for quite sometime!

18. Daniel H.
“As Danny’s spouse, I can honestly say there’s no one more loving, trustworthy, and caring when it comes to animals than him. Danny has two fur babies of his own Ori, our Australian Cattle Dog, and Oliver, our sweet orange tabby cat and I’ve watched him go above and beyond to make sure they live their best lives. He’s the kind of person who not only takes care of his own pets but also steps in to rescue baby squirrels when they need help (Twice in fact), which speaks volumes about his compassionate heart. Danny has a natural way with animals. They instantly feel at ease around him, and it’s clear how much he loves and respects them. Whether it's giving Ori a long walk or snuggling up with Oliver for some quiet time, Danny is dedicated to providing the best care. I truly believe that if you trust Danny with your pets, they’ll be in loving, capable hands, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re being treated like family. He’s responsible, kind, and always puts animals’ well being first.”
