The love of an animal is supreme.

Pet care experience

I'm excited to be available to pet-sit again! I understand that not all situations are as black & white, reach out to me & we will figure out a situation that feels good :) I love interactions with pets and wildlife. I have a natural ability to connect with them in unique and heartfelt ways. I can get goofy & play with them in ways they seem to appreciate. I can dog-sit at your location & dog-walk if its nearby (vehicle transport only if they can be in a kennel that fits in my FJ). Please reach out to me if there are extenuating circumstances or concerns; I’m pretty accommodating and flexible.

David has watched our two dogs, Conan and Penny, on several occasions. They absolutely love him! We'd tried a few other dog sitters before finding David, but I would notice things like they were still very ancey at night because not enough attention/activity, water sometimes not replenished, eta. Also, they didn't seem very happy and comfortable around the others like they do with him. We've noticed that David is way more active with them, and plays/loves on them while we're away from home. You can tell it's not just a job to him - he loves dogs! Our neighbors (my parents, lol) noticed he takes them outside and runs and plays with them regularly. David is basically Conan and Penny's brother now! I could go on and on, but just know that David is trustworthy, energetic, kind, dog-centric, and will give your furry babies the best care you could ask for

David is the only person I would ever leave my dog with. My dog is my world, and I can feel confident that she will be well taken care of when left with him. I’m actually pretty sure my dog loves him more than me.. lol. I highly recommend David as a dog sitter.

David has always been a responsible and loving doggie caregiver. He pays careful attention to the dog's environment and caters to the dog's specific behavioral traits. On top of the logistical care, he is always loving and gentle, giving plenty of attention to our furry friends.

This gentleman has a connection with animals as I have never witnessed with another person. I have multiple animals that get anxiety when new visitors come around. One, named Lilly, can get snappy. With David, this was a non-issue. His patience and calm demeanor had Lilly rolling over (to pet her tummy) and she just let him come right up to her. David treated all of my dogs like they were part of his family. Even crazier than that I think the dogs believed that he was part of theirs too!
