Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog/cat dad & medical student
As a lifelong animal lover, I’ve cared for pets of all ages and conditions, from a 4-week-old puppy to an 18-year-old Italian greyhound with degenerative disc disease. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your furry family member with someone new, which is why I’m committed to easing that uncertainty through consistent updates, photos, and compassionate care. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own.

Safety, trust & environment
Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to their individual needs - whether it’s medication, dietary restrictions, or just extra snuggles. I’m a respectful guest in your home, and your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.
Ratings and reviews
We can’t say enough wonderful things about David! Our senior girl is very challenging, with many special needs. David set our minds at ease knowing she was in good hands. Wonderful with communication as well! Would highly recommend! Thank you again David for your compassionate care ❤️🐾
David was excellent in every way! On a logistics level, he was very organized and communicative throughout. He was always quick to respond and helpful at every turn. He was so caring with our two cats, which put our mind at ease while we traveled out of state. His daily pictures showed our cats playing and laying on his lap, which means they loved him. I'm thrilled to know David is close for our future travels!
David was amazing! He is super attentive and checks in with photos at every visit! He made sure my diabetic cat got his insulin and meals on time and even spent extra time playing and spending time with him! Will definitely rebook in the future.
David has been checking in on my cat, MJ for a few months now and he is great! Thoughtful, attentive, professional and trustworthy. Thanks David!
Based on David's reviews, we had high expectations. Meeting him made us feel even more confident to hire him to take care of our two furballs for 12 days, 30 mins a day during the holidays. From the first visit to the last, he lived up to all our expectations and beyond. He is a reliable, kind, and sweet person—a true gem. Our cats loved him and looked forward to meeting him every day. He treated them like they were his own. Our little family is grateful to David for making a stressful situation like this as smooth and worry-free as possible. Don't hesitate to hire him.
David was great when checking in on my cat! Friendly, professional, and a great attention to detail. I’d highly recommend!!

Schedule
I’m currently a third-year medical student living at the Forte in Hackensack. I have a flexible schedule, especially over the summer. That means I can accommodate last-minute drop-ins, walks, or house sitting visits. Your little one(s) will get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment during our time together. For house sitting, I stay full-time at my clients’ residences, including overnight care. If you’re looking for daytime-only visits without overnight stays, feel free to note that in your request, and I’ll provide a custom quote.
