Pets are my sole purpose in life. I don’t have kids and I’m currently living in a no-pet home. I miss having dogs and cats. I currently snuck in a hamster named Eleanor and a fish tank with an angel fish named Jude. I have a lot of love to give and your pet will be in competent hands. My daily/weekly routine is spent loving and caring for animals. It’s not just a job, I live for it. It’s my life.

Safety, trust & environment

I cannot have pets in my own home but I do offer pet sitting in your own home. Your pet will be comfortable in their own home as I maintain any rituals or schedules as determined by the pet’s owner. I also offer dog walking and drop in visits. I’m very thorough and will offer a great experience for your pet.

Information David B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or attention required, this can include medications, or injections or anything as simple as any routines or schedules your pet has.

A typical day

A typical day for pet sitting starts with a potty break and/or walk. We will play games and if safe, we will go to the dog park where they can have some off the leash fun with other dogs, provided they are friendly with others, of course. I will be sure to bring them to a fenced in park for safety. Clients that just want their dogs walked, we will go around your neighborhood at a moderate pace for one hour. I can also take your dog for a jog or run but I charge more for the extra effort. For cats I will cuddle with them and if they like it, I will play with toys with them. I will feed and do litter box’s, as per requested and agreed upon from the client. For drop-in’s I will do whatever has been requested from the owner. Drop-in’s are for 30 mins only. I can do longer visits if discussed and agreed upon with the owner though. All services must have a meet and greet prior to booking. This is so we can go over all the details for your pets specific requirements.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of a large assortment of pets. I started dog grooming when I was 16 and did that for 20 years. I also worked at a pet store as a small animal manager. Duties included feeding, cleaning cages, engaging with a wide range of small animals, cats and birds. The department was run efficiently and I trained a small team of employees to aid in all duties. In addition to this, I also managed a grooming salon. I am able to administer medications, including injections.

David was incredible! He took wonderful care of both my cat and dog while I was away for a wedding. The photo updates were a treat and put my mind at ease. I highly recommend.

David was amazing with my dog Joanie. He had her out at all the dog parks and interacting with other dogs. He is like the dog whisperer! He sent me videos and pictures of all her adventures as well as my cat that he was watching too. Very respectful of the house and was very tidy when I returned. Can't recommend David enough! He is amazing.
