Information David M. would like to know about your pet

It would be important for me to know your pet’s routine such as times they eat or get medication or when they typically have a walk. I would also want to know if they have any triggers or concerns that would help me best know how to care for them. Also, it would be helpful to know if they have any particular game or toy they like to play with. If your pet will be boarding with me, I would need to know if they get along with cats. We can do a meet and greet with my cat to ensure they would get along.

A typical day

If I have the opportunity to care for your dog or cat, I would ensure that they are safe, fed, have exercise and fun! I would also personalize their day to follow their routine as I know this is important for some pets. Some of the activities I would do with them is take them for walks so they can check out what is going on in the neighborhood, play games with them like fetch and frisbee or just run around with them.

Loving and Responsible Pet Care

Pet care experience

I have cared for pets ranging from a sleepy older cat to the more energetic dog. I am able to give medications and/or take your pet to the vet when needed. I love playing with dogs and cats to ensure that they get the socialization they need. I can personalize the care given to your pet, just let me know what you need! I work from home so am available to tend to your pet as often as needed.

David is so calm and gentle with my pups. They really seem to like him a lot and that is worth more than gold.

David accepted my last minute request to stop in and care for my kitty Breezy when I had to go out of town, he stopped by as scheduled and made sure my buddy had food, water and a clean litter box while I was gone
