Pets are the best! Code: AVIDG52964

Pet care experience

I have been caring for small animals and pets since I was a child. I grew up on a small farm, where I was responsible for the care of a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and mice. I am experienced in providing all aspects of pet care, from feeding and grooming to walking and playing. I understand that affordable pet care is important to many people. That's why I offer my services at some of the best rates in town. I am confident that I can provide your pet with the high-quality care they deserve at a price that you can afford.

David was a great caretaker for our little Nina! He really treated her like one of his own and was extremely responsive, proactively providing updates and photos during her stay. Annie is a sweet girl and made for a good example in showing our rambunctious puppy the ropes. Thank you, David!

David is really really good. He watched my boy amazingly. And my dog is very skittish of men so when David told me that my boy cuddled with him and everything I was very shocked now I can trust in my dog to have faith in men again!! Thank you so much for helping my dog overcome his fear of men!! Definitely going to come back to David💯🤝🏽amazing

David was great. I had no cell service and couldn't help him into my place and my little dude still got to go out to stretch his legs. Good at rising to the occasion. Very happy he's safe, thanks.

Safety, trust & environment

Well-behaved pets are welcome to roam my apartment and sleep on furniture. I also have a patio where they can sunbathe and do their business if they are shy poopers. My apartment is located just 5 minutes from Apache Park and Vista Del Camino Park, and 10 minutes from Papago Dog Park. These parks offer plenty of space for your pet to run and play. My pet lab, Annie, grew up alongside cats, and my roommate currently has a cat. They have all gotten along great. Once your pet learns to trust my home, it will be smooth sailing from there.

Information David M. would like to know about your pet

Dietary needs and restrictions In order to provide your pet with the best possible care, I need to know if they have any dietary needs or restrictions. This includes any allergies or sensitivities they may have, as well as any special dietary requirements. For example, some pets may need to eat grain-free food, while others may need to avoid treats altogether. Health or behavioral issues I also need to know if your pet has any health or behavioral issues. This includes any medications they are taking, as well as any known allergies or sensitivities. It is also important to let me know if your pet has any behavioral issues, such as aggression or anxiety. This information will help me to create a customized care plan that meets your pet's individual needs.

A typical day

In short, a day in the life of a pampered pet in my care is all about relaxation, playtime, and delicious food. Your pet will be so spoiled, they'll never want to leave!

I am a work-from-home pet sitter with a flexible schedule and my own vehicle. I am happy to take care of pets as part of my routine and I often take pets to the park free of charge. ($20+ value FREE) When pets stay with me, they are part of the pack. They are allowed to sleep on beds, furniture, and get treated just like my own pet. I believe that all pets deserve to be treated with love and respect, and I will do everything I can to make sure your pet is comfortable and happy while they are in my care. I am experienced in caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and fish. I am also familiar with the needs of special needs pets. I am confident that I can provide your pet with the high-quality care they deserve.
