Retired & ready to help!

Pet care experience

I am a retired Veteran, Father & Grandfather. I have an extensive history in pet & house sitting. I have cared for cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, snakes, lizards-pretty much any kind of pets. I also have experience with older pets and pets with chronic illness that required medications & injections. I have experience in property management, so I am familiar with all aspects of house sitting.

I can't say enough great things about David and his amazing care for our two cats, Dorian and Gatsby. Like many pet owners, our cats mean the world to us and it takes a lot for us to trust someone with them. David cares for our cats as if they were his own. He is extremely professional, responsible, caring, trustworthy, and goes above and beyond. David sends us pictures of them playing which is so comforting and also keeps a log of what they ate so we know how things went while we were away. We can relax when we travel knowing that our beloved kitties are in such good hands. I highly recommend David to anyone looking for a pet-sitting service.

Currently, I am only caring for pets in your home. I can stay there with them, or I can come in periodically on your schedule to care for them.

Information David P. would like to know about your pet

I am able to care for pets with special needs, but I would need to know ahead of time to be prepared. I am able to give oral medications & injections as needed. I am also familiar with pet allergies & special diet needs.

A typical day

Talking and playing with your pet is important to make them feel comfortable and loved. I try to interact at least every other hour (or more). Periodic snacks/treats that are parent approved are important too. I try to keep them from missing you too much.
