Pet care experience
I grew up with dogs and I’m the go-to house and pet sitter for family and friends. I love walking in general, so I enjoy the opportunity to do so with four-legged company. Even the pups who are wary of men tend to warm up to me okay. I’m also renovating my own home, so house sitting is like a vacation for me, haha. I’ve never owned a pet as an adult because I used to travel more, nor did I want to leave a pet alone while I was at the office all day, but I have fostered 8 kittens in my home previously and I love all animals… although I’m gonna have to pass on certain reptiles, haha. Sorry.
Reviews
She will be 3 on 17 June 2024, so not quite there yet. been meaning to tell you but just slips my mind all the time, brain is getting old! She is happy and so am I.
Ben was a wonderful pet sitter for our cat Clementine for several years as I would travel for work and on vacations. He is trustworthy and always attentive to our cat. Clementine was a very shy cat with most people but she always would perk up when Ben stopped by to visit. We would get a regular update on her while we were on vacation about Clementine. I highly recommend Ben.
We have trusted Ben with our pet care for 22 years. Our dogs are always happy to see him. Ben is compassionate and calm. He is responsible and provides reassuring updates. We highly recommend him for pet sitting and house sitting.

Safety, trust & environment
Unfortunately, I’m renovating my house and don’t feel it’s a safe environment for pets right now, but hopefully that will change at some point next year. In a client’s home, I can adapt to whatever the pet prefers (lots of attention/contact, accompanying outside, whatever).

Availability
I’m part-time caretaker for a family member, so I’m currently not working and have a very flexible schedule. I’m usually available within 24-hour notice, if I’m not taking them to a doctor’s appt or anything like that.
