Pet care experience

🚒 FF/EMT w Pet First Aid Cert

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. 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 dog's stay will be safety and plenty of photo and video updates so you always know they're doing great! 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 here, so there's always someone home 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. I have been watching dogs for many years now and I'm also well aware of the curveballs watching dogs can throw at you. As a firefighter I'm always over the top careful about things and it's no different when it comes to my dogs. So if any medical issues or situations pop up I'll be sure to have vet and 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. I'll do my best to keep your dog's routine as close to home as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions. There are plenty of supervised group play sessions in the backyard, balanced with time to relax indoors. I'll make sure you're always kept up to date by sending plenty of pictures and updates, and I always respond promptly to texts and calls. I know it's nervewracking leaving your pet with a new person, so feel free to stop by the house to meet Kygo and me and see the yard. Looking forward to working with you and meeting your pet!

Connor was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Blue! From the very beginning, he was responsive, kind, and incredibly accommodating, which immediately put me at ease. The updates were hands down the best I’ve ever received—lots of photos and videos that showed just how much fun Blue was having. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him look so happy, relaxed, and content while I was away. Blue made friends with the other pups and was clearly in heaven :) It was obvious that Connor cared for Blue as if he were his own, and that gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to a happy, well-loved dog, and I couldn’t ask for more. I will absolutely be booking with Connor again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will truly treat their dog like family.

Our pups had a great time with Conner! We received frequent photos and videos throughout their stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was wonderful to see the girls getting plenty of playtime with the other dogs staying there—they looked like they were having a blast! Conner was excellent with communication and kept us updated the entire time. It was obvious from the videos that YoYo and Zoe were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. He even made sure Zoe got her medication, which we really appreciated. We wouldn't hesitate to book with Conner again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!

Conner was wonderful with our puppy Kaia. He provided daily updates and pictures and his dog Kygo got along wonderfully with her. I’m sure Kaia can’t wait for her next stay!

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