Pet care experience
With over 20 years of dedicated pet care experience, I understand the deep bond you share with your furry family members. As a pet sitter, my top priority is your pet's safety, well-being, and happiness. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and cats, having cared for them with compassion and attention to their unique needs. Additionally, my background in breeding a variety of hounds as a kid has given me invaluable knowledge and expertise throughout the lifecycle of our beloved doggos. What sets me apart from other sitters is my unwavering commitment to providing the highest quality of care. I approach each pet sitting opportunity with utmost responsibility, ensuring your pet feels comfortable, loved, and at ease in my care. Regular communication and updates will keep you reassured while you are away, and you can trust that I will always go the extra mile to accommodate any specific requirements your pets may have!
Reviews
I think that Cory is a terrific person to entrust your dog with. He is super personable and responsive. We almost never leave our senior Ridgeback with anyone except friends well known and loved by our Jack. I am happy to say that I have no hesitation about Jack staying with Cory again. In fact we are hoping to book some time again this winter. We got lots of photos sent during our week away and in them Jack looks like he looks at home - happy and comfortable.
Cory was great with my little guy. He was friendly, detail-oriented, caring, and easy to communicate with. My dog, who can be fearful of men, took to Cory right away, and came home tired and happy after a fun day. Cory was great about sending pictures and videos throughout the day, which I really appreciated.
Cory was the best choice for our house sitting pet care. Absolutely great with the animals and extremely clean and respectful staying at the house. Nothing but positive feelings. Thank you
I am so pleased to have the opportunity to recommend Cory. Cory is a loving and responsible person who keeps his commitments. Over several years, he's stayed in my home with my dog Elsie and my cat Georgia many times. He regularly sends pictures and updates about how they're doing. They love Cory and I trust him without question.

When it comes to caring for pets, my approach is all about creating a warm and loving environment, whether it's in my home, your home, or house-sitting for you. I make sure to send plenty of daily pictures and videos of your pet to provide a continued remote connection for you, if you prefer. If your furry friend stays with me, they'll be showered with attention, playtime, and cuddles, just like they're part of the family. On the other paw, if I visit your home or house-sit for you, I'll make sure to provide the same level of care and affection your pet deserves. Whether it's feeding, walking, or simply keeping them company, I'm dedicated to making sure they feel happy and cherished throughout their time with me! 🐾❤️

A typical day
I love to go for leisurely walks around our calm neighborhood. I can also be found often strolling around Ragle Ranch Regional Park, and stopping into the dog-park there as well. If it's particularly warm, we may head to the beach, but usually will ensure any and all activity time that requires paws-on-cement happen during the cooler hours of the morning or later-afternoon/evening.

I work remotely, full-time, and am home all day. I do go to the gym for about an hour but promptly return home. One of the things I love is going on multiple walks daily, and enjoying precious moments at the park with my pup. And I bet your furry friend would love that too! But hey, if they're more relaxed, we can have a blast with indoor playtime and cozy cuddles. I live with my partner Katee and her lovable 7-year-old fur buddy, Jinx – he loves a good walk, but at the dog park, he tends to heir more on the side of an introvert! 😂
