I grew up with a large number of dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents and other sorts of pets! I've been a sincere and unconditional animal lover for as long as I can remember- I even got married at the Oregon Zoo to celebrate my wife and my love of animals of all kinds, shapes and sizes! A few of my photos show us walking our dog Lewie in a tux! There is no type of animal I am not keen to learn how to care for. I have cared for friends, family and stranger's dogs, cats, caged animals and even horses! I ALWAYS go above and beyond to ensure your animals well being and I always send lots of pictures of me playing with/sleeping with/cuddling with your animal to ensure your peace of mind while you are away. I am no stranger to walks, baths, and administering unusual foods and/or medications for your pet(s). I have trained tiny puppies, fostered baby kittens who's eyes haven't yet opened, bathed the shaggiest of dogs and walked (/ran with, if necessary) the most energetic of teenage pups (those 1-year-olds can be bring a LOT to the table!) I look forward to developing long lasting relationships with every pet I sit and would be honored to do so with your furry family member and would treat them like my own! I currently own 3 cats and a pacman frog 🐸 (see photos) and I recently lost my dog, Lewie of 15 years who I was very close with- so getting to spend time with your dog/animal would bring me great joy and that would reflect in the love and care I would bring to your animal and your household 😊. I ensure a clean house upon your return- often leaving it cleaner than I found it by way of vacuum, wiping down surfaces, etc (I'm a bit of a neat freak). I hope you'll consider my services! I look forward to meeting your furry fam and showering them with all the love they deserve!
