Ready to run with your pup!

Pet care experience

I have always had a way with dogs but have been unable to have a dog for the past year (I live with an adorable disabled cat named Sprocket) so I'd like to help take care of your furry friends. I have had experience raising dogs from King Charles Spaniels to Huskie/Malimute mixes so I'm comfortable with all shapes and sizes of dogs. I have also had experience working with service dogs in training at home so am comfortable picking up any training you have with your dog at home to ensure the best and safest experience for you and your pet. I'd love to take your energetic fur-baby on runs, hikes, and to play in the park (if they are still spry) or on a long walk to the couch for a cuddle (if they are older or just need some loving). I've always bee lined straight for the dog in the room to give them pets, scratches, and belly rubs and your dog would be no different. Treats provided if parent approved. My work schedule changes fairly often since I do rotating shift work but that means that I'm frequently available on weekdays or odd hours to take care of your pets. Feel free to ask about my availability and I'm glad to find time in my schedule for you.

Arthur had great communication with me while we were out of town for a week-long vacation. While we were away there was an emergency that required our dog to be seen at the emergency vet office. Arthur notified me immediately of what occurred and took the necessary actions to ensure Raven was taken care of. He continued to give Raven excellent care for the remainder of the week, taking her for walks, administering medications, and figuring out how to manage her with an Elizabethan collar. Despite these unforeseen inconveniences, Arthur cared for our dog like his own. When we returned home our pup was happy and relaxed and the house was as we left it. I plan to use Arthur again in the future and will definitely recommend him to others looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and dependable dog sitter. Thanks, Arthur!

Arthur was spectacular. I was rather nervous as I have never used this service before and we were testing it out for a 5 day trip. All went perfect and we came home to a very happy relaxed dog. Much improved from taking her to the kennel! Arthur sent regular updates and I knew I could always reach him if I needed to. He took our pup out to the open space and made sure she got what she needed!! Thanks Arthur. I'll be requesting her services again!

Arthur did a wonderful job with our 2 cats, dog, and house. He cleaned up nicely after the dog's upset tummy. I never would have known if he hadn't written during our vacation to tell me about it. (She is doing just fine, by the way). He left us an informative note before he left with updates on everyone. One of the cats actually slept in the bed next to him, so he does have a comforting demeanor with animals. He also left the house in an orderly manner upon our return. I will definitely hire him again if he's available! Thanks Arthur!

Arthur did a good job of keeping me up to date about my pup while I was gone.
