Passionate Pet Care Provider

Pet care experience

Dogs are the most amazing creatures--they teach us what unconditional love really is! If you have that kind of affection in your life, you've got it made. I became a pet sitter because I know what it's like to have a furry family member and how hard it is to find care for them when you go out of town. My life would not have been complete without dogs by my side. I was raised in Texas with a little poodle named Abby. She taught me everything there was to know about responsibility and love. When I got a little older and we moved to Ohio, we were treated to a rude awakening. We had yellow lab named Chance who was a destructive force. My wife and I adopted a half Shepherd and half Pyrenees who has a lot of attitude. She thinks she's a gift to the world--and she might not be wrong. A house isn't a home without a dog, and our household will always have one in it. You and your dog will love me because I am very empathetic, grateful, and I care so much about everyone--human or animal--in my life. I want to create a bond with your pet, they're more than a client, they'll hopefully be a friend. I don't think you can ever have enough friends, whether they be a person, a dog, or even a hedgehog! I can't wait to meet you and your pet. Please reach out if you'd like to chat more, or if you'd like to set up a meet and greet. I promise that any animal I look after will have a grand ol' time.

David was fantastic with Rooney. He took good care of him and even sent excellent pictures. When he came over to meet Rooney, he was extremely attentive, asking good questions to make sure he understood everything that Rooney would need and that he would need to take good care of Rooney. I felt such a sense of calm knowing David was at our place. He was truly excellent and I highly recommend him!

David was just great and he was so accommodating with my schedule. I couldn't have asked for a better situation. I felt so well taken care of. David sent me photos and updates while I was away giving me peace of mind. I've decided to hire him a few days a week after my great experience.

Information David I. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know as much about your pet as I can. Do they have health issues? How can I make them comfortable? What activities do they enjoy? What is their normal routine like? Can I do anything to make you feel more at ease?

A typical day

I want to know what your dog loves to do! Do they enjoy walking and getting all the sights and smells the neighborhood has to offer? Are they energetic and love fetch? Or are they more of a snuggler? I'm happy to hang out with your pet and be their companion while they do the things that they are used to and love.
