About: Hello neighbors and strangers, my name is Devin; but, you can call me Devo! I love animals, especially the kind, soft-furred, emotionally supporting ones. You can trust that I will not mistreat any animal in my care and protect them with my life. I live in the SW side of Decatur, AL. We have a decent fenced in back yard where your pets can run, jump, and have all the exploring adventure that they desire. I am currently not a pet owner but my roommate has a small dog. He's kind to children and if he meets another dog properly . Thinks he's bigger than he is. I have experience caring for cats, and lizards as well. I have worked with many animals and am comfortable grooming, walking, feeding, playing with and caring for pets. Working for myself currently so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Please feel free to contact me to discuss my services. It is fenced in back yard where the pets can run around and play. Clean house ... Really don't allow dogs on the furniture or in my personal room . I can play with your pet and give the necessary attention. I am available for whatever your needs are, rather it be short term or long term, cold or hot I am the man with the plan to care for your dog. Well I live in a nice, beautiful, quiet neighborhood where its normal to see a bunch of pet owners, so Rover fits right in. I work for myself and am a on call handyman and lawn service provider. I'm usually close to house all day with frequent check ins. Within a every 4 hour period. I am easy going with animals. I may have to hug an pet to show support, may have to conversate with them, play tag, tug of war.

About: I have been taking care of animals of all sorts almost my entire life. I have a strong personal connection to cats and dogs and have always had some of my own. I am the pet sitter of the family, and my friends also call me to come sit for their animals. I have references if needed. I have a few medical conditions I manage on my own that leave me unable to fill a normal job. This means that I have a lot of free time. Pet care can be my focus next to my health and has been most of my life. I cannot have animals where I stay now, so I would really love to extend my services and make some animal friends in the meantime. I am able to feed, walk, and play with all of your animals, whether inside or out. I will bathe dogs up to 35 lbs (I'm sort of weak from being sick right now but I'm trying to manage this) and hopefully larger in the future. I can clip nails, treat wounds, and give medications.

About: I have 3 wonderful pups of my own and have had pets my entire life! I only recently started watching other people's pets but I love it! I have taken care of dogs with extra needs. My schedule is pretty open at the moment! I am extremely flexible with time. If anything changes in my schedule I will notify you. I am willing to do weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced in backyard if pets are to be boarded at my home. I have two dogs that are crate trained so I do have experience with that.

About: Through my time working in shelters, as a pet sitter/dog walker, and head trainer for multiple companies I have met and loved hundreds of dogs. My scientific background as well as extensive behavioral knowledge makes me extremely capable to take care of any breed and personality. I am an avid hiker and love to show dogs a good time. Whatever your pups preferred activities, I can accommodate and more! I love to add in mental exercise in the form of training and games to truly tire out your pup, not just physically, while working on valuable life skills as well. I have experience with reactivity, resource guarding, fearful/shy dogs, anxiety, medical issues, deaf/blind dogs, puppies and adolescents and more. My own three dogs- Flash, Capri, and Keller- are my best friends and best teachers. I can’t wait to meet your best friend too! Owning my own dog training company provides so much including a flexible schedule. My lessons are no longer than 2 hours at most and I typically only have 1-2 a day which gives me plenty of time morning, afternoon, and evening to continue to care for dogs in whatever capacity you need. I treat every client’s home and dog as my own. I respect privacy and security making sure to check and double check all gates, doors, and locks. Working at a professional pet sitting company for many years in the past has given me the experience to get in and out of your house safely while caring for your dog and providing you with peace of mind. Your dog is my top priority when I am with them. I value leash safety and carry my own safety equipment at all times including non-slip martingale collars, extra leashes, and carabiners. I am a pro at avoiding off leash dogs or other unwanted attention on walks depending on your dogs preferences. I pride myself on a deep understanding of canine body language allowing me to determine when and what your dog would like to do or avoid.
