Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to stick closely to their routines and preferences to keep them comfortable and happy. Maintaining open and consistent communication with pet parents is important to me. I understand how important peace of mind is when someone else is caring for your fur baby, so I will provide regular updates, photos, and am always available to answer questions or give quick check-ins. I want every pet parent to feel totally at ease knowing their pet is in loving, capable hands.

Information Calvin T. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know if there are any special behaviors that your pet has that I should be aware of. I would also like to know if they have a set schedule for walks/feeding, etc.

A typical day

I like to take dogs on engaging walks tailored to their energy levels and love spending quality time playing with them to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. Whether it's toys or just running around with them, I am open to doing whatever they like!

Pet care experience

I have been around dogs since I was 10 years old! I love to play with dogs and take them for walks, as it also allows me to be active. I used to coordinate with family and friends to visit their homes and take care of their dogs on days they worked in the office so that they were never alone.

I’ve known Calvin for a little more than ten years, and the main reason our friendship has been this strong (and going) is because of his trustworthiness. On top of his trusting persona, Calvin is great with dogs. This was evident in how he meticulously took care of his dog, Ruby, and his treatment of my dog. My dog was a character (to say the least), and I’d have to warn people on how to approach him, but that never stopped Calvin from caring for my dog

Calvin is a truly exceptional pet caregiver! He is responsible, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. Every time he’s watched my dog, Maya, I’ve felt completely at ease knowing they’re in such caring hands. He communicates regularly with updates and photos. I highly recommend Calvin to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and passionate. I’d trust him to walk and look over my pets anyday!

Calvin was one of my pets’ caregivers in a couple of occasions. We originally cared for a dog named together who sadly passed due to old age. However, whenever I was out of town, Calvin would be the person to make sure that she had everything she needed to remain comfortable when I was away for long periods. Fast forwarding a few years, I adopted another dog named Hiro when I lived alone. Burp was only six months at the time and required a lot of attention. Due to my hybrid work schedule, there were a couple of days in the week where I had to be away for at least 8 hours at a time. Calvin’s job allowed him to work from home during those days where I couldn’t, so he adjusted his schedule to work from my apartment to make sure that someone was always home to care for Hiro. Calvin regularly played with Hiro and continued his obedience training while I was away, sending pictures periodically to keep me connected with my dog. I highly recommend Calvin and would definitely reach out to him in a heartbeat the next time I need assistance.
