Pet care experience
Hello, fellow dog lover! My name is Adam, and I'm available seven days a week to travel to your home and care for your adorable pet(s) while you are away. Your pup(s) will be treated as if it was my own, getting the care, cuddles, and specialized attention they deserve. As a recent graduate living in Foggy Bottom, I've grown up caring for dogs my entire life, and have taken care of pets of family, friends, and neighbors--as well as my own shetland sheepdog, pit bull, and pomeranian! I am comfortable with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments, and work well with pups who may be slow to warm up to new friends. I currently work from my laptop and maintain a very flexible schedule, so I will be with your pets full-time on house sitting stays. I'm also a very active person, so your dog will be walked in the dog-friendly areas of the DC area at least twice a day. This flexible work schedule also allows me to keep a watchful eye on those that may need extra care or specialized attention! You and your dog will love my high-quality care and constant communication. My adaptable schedule means I'm available seven days a week to care for your best friend; however, your dog isn’t my only client--you are too. Don't hesitate to let me know what I can do to put your mind at ease while you're away from your loved one(s). Please reach out to me and send a request. I'd be happy to set up a meet and greet to get to know one another and chat about the details of my services. Looking forward to meeting you soon!
Reviews
Adam was great. He is extremely conscientious, asked me a list of specific prepared care questions when we met, listened, had already located the nearest two vets in case of an emergency, and instantly noted all the care instructions I gave him. Additionally, he clearly loves dogs a lot and enjoys spending time with them. I have to be careful because my dog is hostile to strangers, but when she barked at Adam at the first meet-and-greet, he had brought his own treats, and after five minutes (with a quick refresher next day) Dinah approved him and they became the best of friends. Dinah looked extremely happy in the pictures he sent me. I would absolutely like Adam to watch Dinah again next time I go out of town.
Adam has always taken very good care of his pets and looks out for both their happiness and their well being. When pet sitting, he is extra attentive and bonds very quickly with his charges even though they've just met!
Adam was great with Maggie! I was nervous about leaving her home alone for a whole weekend at first, because she always get sad or rowdy when we are gone for more than a few hours at a time. Adam checked in with us frequently, and Maggie looked so happy in his pictures, I couldn't believe it! We will definitely be using Adam again next time we go out of town.
Adam is an all-around pro with all kinds of pets. He has helped me with my very energetic pup by making sure she got lots of good exercise and attention when I'm out of town! I trust Adam to take the very best care of my dog. I've known him for four years, and he has shown that he is a consistently great human being and animal lover.
