Caring, Dependable, Detail Oriented

Pet care experience

✅ Transport ✅ Bathing ✅ Medicine ✅ All diets (including raw) ✅ All ages ✅ All breeds ✅ All sizes My family has always had pets, from dogs and cats to guinea pigs and snakes. I have grown to love animal companions and take great care to meet needs in anticipation. I have experience feeding (solids, wet, and bottle), first aid (minor injuries, determining if higher care is needed, emergency situation handling), walking (or any exercise), and most of all having fun!! Whether you have a newborn puppy/kitten or a senior dog/cat needing palliative care, I can do it all with efficiency and detail. Your pets will have my undivided attention during my stay and you can enjoy your time away knowing they are in loving hands.

August was a wonderful caregiver to our 2 mid-sized labrador mix dogs, one 12yrs, one 6yrs. August slept in our home during our family's wk long vacation. They provided several walks a day, fed, medicated and supported a relaxing, consistent environment for our beloved pups. Our older dog required medical support while in Augusts' care. August maintained conversation, with health updates with our veterinarian and myself which allowed me peace of mind while we were traveling. August was able to set up and manage playdates and excursions with our friends for our 2 pups. August left our home and our pups in perfect shape and I was very grateful for their presence. I highly recommend August and will absolutely use them again.

August is awesome. Spends time with my cats so they aren’t so lonely while I am gone.

August is the best. He manages my Roxy dog well and she is always content and happy when I come home. August is communicative, and leaves my house clean. Highly recommend August and look forward to continued sits from him in the future.

Information August S. would like to know about your pet

What is your pet’s favorite toy? How do they like to be pet? What tricks do they know - or need help learning? Let me know if there are any house rules (shoes on/off, pets on furniture, barking inside, allowed treats, pass codes or key locations) or any allergies in the household. Location of food and leashes will also be helpful.

A typical day

I love to let pets take the lead on what kind of activities they are in the mood for! Affectionate cuddle time, energetic play, refreshing walks and enrichment are all perfect ways to care for a fluffy loved one.
