🚒 FF/EMT w Pet First Aid Cert

Pet care experience

Hey! I’m Connor. I'm a Firefighter/EMT with pet CPR and First Aid certification. I live in my own home in a quiet suburban neighborhood with a large, securely fenced backyard. Both the house and yard were recently redone, so everything is safe, clean, and ready for your pet. Every dog I care for gets a tracking tag for extra peace of mind. During meals, all dogs are separated, and the home is kept neat, hazard-free, and even safe for those expert counter surfers! The space can also be easily divided if dogs need a little personal time. If you’re looking for someone responsible and experienced who can handle whatever situations pets throw your way - you’ve found the right person. The two priorities for your visit will be your dogs safety and plenty of photo and video updates so you know they're doing well! I live with my yellow lab Kygo. He’s super friendly, loves to play with all our visitors, and knows when to give space if another dog needs it. My cousin Patrick also lives with me so there's always someone in the house to keep an eye on your pup. I’ve raised many well trained dogs over the years, mostly Labs, using positive reinforcement and lots of patience instead of harsh discipline. As a firefighter I'm always over the top careful about things and its no different when it comes to my dogs. So if any medical issues or situations pop up I'll be sure to have medical info from you in advance so we can make sure your dog is taken care of. I am very familiar with the 24/7 vets in the area and their different specialties should something require immediate attention. We have a great dog walking area just down the street and my neighborhood is low traffic. Your dog will get several walks a day and lots of play time in the fenced in yard. I'll make sure you're kept in the know with plenty of pictures and updates and will always respond promptly to texts and calls. I know its nervewracking leaving your BFF with a new person so feel free to stop by the house to meet Kygo and me and see the yard. Drop me a line and we can chat, facetime, meet, or whatever puts you at ease. Looking forward to working with you and meeting your pet!

Connor was great. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog Ollie with him and his dog. I will be using him again. Highly recommend!

Connor provided an awesome dog sitting experience for us and our two goldens. From the initial contact and meeting with Connor through to pick-up, Connor was extremely timely and clear in his communication with us. He provided us regular updates with photos and videos which was so reassuring and something we’d never received before when boarding our dogs elsewhere. Our dogs were very well-cared for during their 8 days with Connor. We will definitely book again for future needs and highly recommend Connor if you are looking for an excellent dog sitter!
