Lifelong Pet owner

Pet care experience

My family had a pet sitting business in Naples, FL for 30 years. I live in the Chicagoland area now and work in the Security field. I am also twenty-six year military veteran and love to spend time with all types of animals, but especially dogs. We have three dogs that love to play! We also have four kids living at home a thirteen, twelve, ten and an eight year old. We live in a house with a fenced in yard and a doggie door

Dropped Bindi off before heading out of town for the weekend. She had a blast and was exhausted all afternoon afterward! Wil definitely reach out again.

Appreciate his patience with our 9 year old family rescue who had never had a dog walker before.

David was an excellent sitter. He was on time, reliable, attentive, caring, and down to Earth. Did everything I asked. I definitely would recommend him and would use his services again in the future! Thank you so much.

David did such a great job with my dogs! I can be pretty picky when it comes to who is watching my dogs and I could not have made a better choice. One of my dogs is extremely skiddish when it comes to people and I was worried he would be nervous when I dropped him off for daycare but when I came to pick him up, he didn't even want to come home! He had completely warmed up to David and his family and it was clear that he had a phenomenal time while he was dropped off. Both of my dogs were exhausted when they got home and crashed as soon as they got home from their fun day. David sent photos and updates the whole time and let me know that my dogs were doing great, so I didn't have to worry. I would definitely recommend him!

Information David M. would like to know about your pet

I need to know any medical needs, food schedules and vet info. Is there food aggression? And any other things that you think will make their stay at my house more comfortable.

A typical day

I take the dogs on walks around my neighborhood and play games in my large yard. There will be plenty of cuddling as well. You will probably come back to a pretty tired dog.

I work full-time m-f 6:30a - 2:30p. But my wife is off for the summer; so your babies always have someone around. They also have access to the entire first floor unless you want them crated. And as I've mentioned before, they have full access to my yard too.
