Pet care experience

No dog too big or small

I genuinely love animals and have gained a lot of experience in pet care over the years. I ensure every pet I look after gets plenty of attention and care, making them feel safe and happy. I've worked with pets of all ages, breeds, and personalities, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to overnight care.

David was very nice and communicative, and was accommodating to be able to walk my dog for a last minute walk. Would definitely recommend!

David is a nice and well mannered guy but unfortunately he didn’t deliver in the basic expectations of care for our cat that we set out from the beginning. He looked after him for 3 weeks, sending regular reports and pictures from his visits, but when we returned home we found that he had either barely, or never cleaned, the litter box (as a result there was a bad smell and litter all over the room), he left a smeared food mat and bowl full of mold, and cat vomit dried up on our carpet. We felt very sorry for the conditions our cat had to live in for so many days. He said after that he was a very violent cat, which prevented him from cleaning, but sent many photos of him playing with him during his visits. It seems to me that he has very little experience with cats, and we’re disappointed by his sloppiness in basic cat-care, and to have found this out now, only after we hired him.

David is so kind and goes above and beyond to make sure me and my dog are comfortable. You can tell he really loves dogs. He is my first call every time I need a walk!

Bounty is very happy to see David and enjoys his walks with him. He isn’t nervous when he sees David and quickly warmed up to him.

Super reliable, friendly, and quick to respond! I’m happy I booked with him to care for my dog. I’ll definitely be booking with David again

David did a great job walking Lily. When I told him about her fear of other dogs he was extra careful to avoid them and make her feel safe.

Let me know if the dog has special needs or needs to take any medication. I am comfortable administering but I request just to show me as all dogs are different.
