Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal loving son of a Veterinarian
Raised on a ranch by my veterinarian mom, I bring over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and horses. I am experienced with administering medications, supporting training routines, and providing personalized care for shy or nervous pets. My focus is on creating a routine that includes comfort, exercise, and plenty of affection, so your pet is safe, healthy, and happy. While pet care is a fun and enjoyable job, I understand that you are entrusting me with your pet's well being. I take this job very seriously and aim to provide top-tier, professional service to give you peace of mind while you're away. My rates are $20 for a half-hour visit and $40 for a full hour, with holiday rates at $40 and $60, respectively.

Ratings and reviews
David is kind and seems to really enjoy caring for our cat. We appreciate his service!
David was a lifesaver and came in to take care of our two cats over the holidays at the last minute when another Rover sitter never showed up. He was super responsive and communicative and took great care of the cats, making sure they had their wet food prepared the way they like to eat it and keeping the litter boxes very clean. David was even able to pet our shy cat Fergus who never lets anyone pet him and usually just hides— so we were super impressed with his cat whisperer skills. When our other shy cat Marjorie was hiding, David was amazing and stayed extra time to look everywhere in the house. We really appreciate how well David took care of our two kitties and he made a very stressful travel situation way better. The house was in great shape when we got home. Thanks David, for everything you did to help us celebrate the holidays with our family! We came back to two happy cats!
David was AaaaMAZING with my cats! He was thoughtful about my cat’s needs, communicative and loving. His excellent care helped make my vacation stress-free. Thank you for taking such good care of them.
David is fantastic, this was the second time he watched my kitties, and it for sure won’t be the last I ask him to. He went above and beyond getting one of my cats to take his meds. They absolutely adore him!
David was exceptional with both our dogs. Sounds like the first day was rough as our dogs were nervous, but David spent time with them to build trust. After that, they got excited to see him every day. He communicated with us everyday - this made our trip so much better. Knowing we didn’t have to worry about them back at home was so nice. Thank you David! I will definitely be booking David in the future!
Always helpful and communicative, the cats love him, great sitter!
