My name is Carlo and I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. My family had a dalmatian and then a bloodhound while I was growing up. I was also raised with a canary and a ferret besides the dogs and cats. My wife, Sara, who is part of the pet sitting, grew up with dachshunds her whole life. We currently have two dachshunds (a 4 and a 4 and 1/2 yr old) and two long haired cats (9 yrs old). Sara and I are both comfortable givings medications and caring for elderly or sick dogs as we have done it in the past. My sister's bloodhound had cancer so I have a lot of experience in dealing with medical issues for animals. Our dogs love to be active. We often take them to the dog park in Irvine or the dog beach in Huntington Beach. They especially love the beach! On days we can't get them to the park or beach, we take them on walks around our neighborhood. Monster loves to play fetch and Zeus loves to chew on bones. They both also enjoy a good nap. The cats spend most of the time lounging in the sun in the bedroom or my office. The cats have grown up around dogs since they were kittens, so they don't mind dogs at all. We both love animals and enjoy getting to spend time with them. We have also had to find people to help out with our animals in the past when we've gone on vacation or had conflicting work schedules, so we know how important it is to pet owners to find someone you can trust and that is reliable to help take care of your animals. Our animals are our family, and we would be more than happy to treat your animals as our own when we provide our services!
