Safety, trust & environment

I have had pets my entire life so I am very familiar with the different care that each pet can need. They all have their own personalities and I am good with all types of animals. From high anxiety pets, I had my own, to the easy to care for and every kind in between. Whether it's your dogs or cats, I will care for yours as I have always cared for my own, with lots of love and attention.

Information Cary S. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has special likes or dislikes, let me know and I will plan accordingly to care for them in the same way you would.

A typical day

I've always had active dogs so I am used to lots of play time. From indoor toy time to playing frisbee and Chuck-it tennis ball throw time.

Pet care experience

Pets have always been an important part of my life since I was a kid. I have had cats and dogs my entire life, I am 50 now. I have raised and trained many puppies & kittens and continued to care for them as they became seniors, some with health issues, such as cancer and kidney failure, that required special care and love. I love caring for pets as they rely on us for everything and I believe they should all be well taken care of and happy & healthy throughout their entire lives. We currently have a 15 year old cat that we rescued 11 years ago. Sadly, our dog recently passed or we would have one of each. I am truly an animal lover.

Cary is the best with our dog, Sadie. She is an AmStaff, bulldog, pit mix, so basically all the bully breeds and he’s great at taking her out for play breaks when we are away for an extended time. She always gets excited to see her friend, Cary, and we love that we have some one dependable, kind and loving to take care of her!

I can’t say enough great things about Cary! Leaving my three cats for a week is never easy, but he went above and beyond to make sure they were loved, cared for, and comfortable while I was away. He treated them like they were his own, and the peace of mind that gave me was priceless. When I came home, my cats were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Cary is reliable, trustworthy, compassionate, and truly has a gift with animals. He’s no longer just a pet sitter—he’s officially part of our tribe! I wholeheartedly recommend Cary to anyone looking for someone who will care for their pets with genuine love and dedication. You won’t find anyone better!

We met Cary at the Orting dog park 3 years ago and have become close friends thru our shared love of dogs. Even though Cary's dog Rocky passed 2 years ago, he still visits the dog park a couple times per week and throws tennis balls for our grandsons golden retriever Buddy. On a couple occasions when we were out of town, Cary has cared for our dog Clemie at his house. Cary is someone that you can count on for any situation and his knowledge & care of pets is the best.
