Awesome guy! 2nd time hiring Colin to drop in our cat, Charlie. He is super communicative and we forgot to remind him on anything and he knew what to do and how to take care of her. She really enjoys his company and I love his pics of their time together. Colin is our go to!

He did not do the cat box Friday night. I did not receive a notification of check-in at the 7 AM timeslot for the feeding of the cats on Saturday morning. I messaged him at 11 AM and asked if the cats were fed. I got no response to that text message or my phone call at 12. Then I received a message at 12:30 that he started his check-in, with a “sorry” text message the cats have been fed. Unacceptable timing, I canceled my trip and came home immediately.

Schedule

I am a student and a part time worker and volunteer. I’m pretty lucky to have a flexible schedule during the summer so I should be available most days at most times.

Safety, trust & environment

Pet service is a two sided job. Of course you have to love the pet and have a good time being with them but it’s also about responsibility and being kind but stern. My grandma loves her cats but she feeds them a bit too much and I think I have learned from dealing with those poor cats.

Pets

A typical day

I like to get active, see the sites, get out to parks, all the good stuff. I find that pets especially dogs just appreciate time together and attention which I am more then willing to give.

Let me know any special needs or unique circumstances your pet has, but I’m sure that goes with out saying. If you’re someone that likes to share about your pet I wouldn’t mind to hear a bit about their personality to give them the best care I can.
