Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable loving care for your pet!
I’ve been caring for dogs for over 30 years, and for me, pet care isn’t a side job—it’s second nature. My experience spans every life stage, from high-energy puppies learning their first routines to senior dogs who need patience, gentleness, and thoughtful care. What sets me apart is my ability to read each dog’s individual needs and adjust my care accordingly. I have hands-on experience with basic puppy training, including crate training, leash manners, potty routines, and reinforcing positive behaviors. For senior pets, I’m especially attentive to mobility limitations, medication schedules, comfort needs, and maintaining calm, familiar routines that help reduce anxiety. I treat every dog as if they were my own—prioritizing safety, consistency, and lots of affection. Whether your pet needs structured guidance, a slower pace, or simply someone who understands them, you can trust that they’ll be in capable, loving hands while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is to keep their routine and environment as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, litter or potty routines, and any household preferences. I take time to observe each pet’s behavior and comfort level, adjusting my approach to match their personality—whether they enjoy play and interaction or prefer quiet companionship. I keep homes clean and respected, ensuring food areas, litter boxes, and pet spaces are tidy during every visit. Safety and communication are important to me, so I always double-check doors, gates, and food storage, and I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I treat every home with care and discretion, and every pet as if they were my own.
Ratings and reviews
Chad has never met a dog he doesn’t love and they all love him. He has 4 dogs himself and they adore him. He is always happy when ha is with the dogs.
I cannot recommend Chad highly enough as a dog sitter. He has cared for my senior pug, Tyson, who lost the use of his back legs due to pug myelopathy, and he did so with incredible patience, compassion, and confidence. Chad was completely comfortable changing diapers, handling Tyson gently, and making sure he was always safe, clean, and comfortable. It takes a special kind of person to care for a dog with mobility challenges, and Chad handled it with genuine kindness and respect. Chad has also cared for my Old English Bulldog, who has breathing issues and very specific needs when it comes to eating and walking. He is extremely knowledgeable about brachycephalic (short-snout) breeds and understands how important it is to move slowly, monitor breathing, and follow precise routines. Knowing Chad is caring for my dogs gives me complete peace of mind. He treats them as if they are his own, and his experience, attentiveness, and calm demeanor make him an exceptional choice for anyone—especially those with senior dogs or pets with special needs

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have the time, flexibility, and focus to give animals the attention they deserve. As a 100% disabled veteran, my schedule allows me to be fully present—whether that means unhurried visits, consistent routines, or simply spending quality time with your pet so they feel safe and cared for. Animals have always been a source of comfort and joy in my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely love, not something I rush through. Because I’m not juggling a traditional 9–5 schedule, I’m able to provide reliable care, timely check-ins, and calm, attentive companionship tailored to each pet’s needs. If you’re looking for someone who has both the heart for animals and the availability to prioritize them, your pet will be in thoughtful, capable hands with me.
