Pet care experience

Dog enthusiast eager to meet more!

I love dogs and spending time with them. Whether they are my own, a friend’s, or a stranger’s. I thoroughly enjoy walks, games, lazing on the couch with them you name it. I believe the presence of dogs improves nearly all of life’s experiences. Eager to meet more pups and tend to them as needed!

Safety, trust & environment

Caring for pet’s in client’s home is completely at their guidance, i.e. no extra food or treats if not allowed, I will not let them on furniture if they’re not supposed to be, if they get fed at certain times, etc. As long as the instructions and guidance is provided I will abide by client’s rules with their pups and homes.

David came highly recommended by a close friend who has trusted him for years to care for their pets while they travel frequently. From the moment I met him during a meet-and-greet at Brodie’s favorite dog park, I could tell he was genuinely kind and incredibly comfortable around dogs. He built rapport with Brodie right away. Before our trip, David also took the time to visit our home and familiarize himself with the space and surrounding area. He asked all the thoughtful, practical questions you’d expect from an experienced and responsible dog sitter, which immediately gave me confidence. While we were away for a week, it was clear David went above and beyond. Through our home security system, we could see him consistently playing with Brodie, taking him on daily walks (at least twice a day), and giving him plenty of attention and care. It was obvious they formed a great bond. When we returned, not only was Brodie happy and well cared for, but our home was in excellent condition. David kept everything clean, maintained the pool, and even watered our plants daily—details that did not go unnoticed. This experience proved to us that David is someone you can trust 100%. I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet care.

Absolutely thrilled with David as our dog sitter! He went above and beyond in every way- accommodating two back-to-back, last-minute requests without hesitation. From the start, he was professional, respectful of our home, and left everything spotless. Our pup was in the best hands- he sent daily photo updates, took her on regular walks, and made sure she felt loved and cared for while we were away. David is trustworthy, reliable, and truly a perfect house guest. We would 100% book him again and recommend him to all our family and friends without hesitation!

David has cared for my two dogs on numerous occasions and I can’t recommend him enough if you are looking for a walker or sitter. My girls can be anxious around a lot of other dogs and unfamiliar territory so boarding them can be a scary and stressful situation for them and myself! Knowing my dogs are in David’s care while I am away certainly puts my mind at ease. He pays great attention to detail to their feeding schedule, other special instructions, and updates me on how they are doing. Most importantly, my pups have a wonderful time!

We were so thankful to have David as our dog sitter. His calm presence reassured us that our dog would feel at ease while we were away. We gave him our dog’s routine, and if there was a question or we wanted to check in, he was very responsive. It is such a comfort to know that our dog will be well taken care of. We will be requesting his service again in the future.

David is my go to sitter for my dog, Vincent. I’ve never had to worry when leaving Vinny in his care. He’s a kind, compassionate, and responsible pet sitter. Sometimes I can get nervous leaving Vincent with new sitters because he’s a senior dog, but not with David. David knew exactly what Vincent’s needs were and went above and beyond in following my instructions. He sent pictures every time he’s watched my pup. In subsequent visits, when I would drop Vinny off his tail wags and ears perk up in the way does when seeing his favorite people. David is your man if you’re looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and adaptable pet sitter. 12/10 stars.

David is a great pet sitter! He’s dependable, attentive, and made sure my doodle dog was well cared for. I appreciated the updates he provided and felt confident my pet was in good hands. I’d definitely recommend him to others.

Schedule

I work remotely full time, but there are lulls in days and my work schedule is flexible so as long as there’s Internet access. I enjoy walking before work, during the lunch hour, and after work as well, so the needs of the animals work well with my schedule. Weekends may vary depending on travel plans, but as long as there is ample notice, should be able to work things out!

Do me if your dog has any special needs, quirks, or anything I should know about. No amount of information is too much! I want to have the best time with the pup(s) and more importantly I want them to feel as comfortable as possible.
