Best In-Home Care for Your Dogs! 🐶

Pet care experience

Naples and SW Florida pet parents: Are you traveling or planning a trip? Do you have a busy schedule and need help with your best pet pals? Book your pet's best "Staycation" ever w/ David. You'll receive top quality In-Home Dog Sitting and pet care, with regular Texts and Photo Updates, while you're away! Your dogs and cats will receive lots of Love and Attention, PLUS: Daily Walks, Play, and Exercise. All in the comfort of their own home and familiar surroundings! Regular clients are delighted with the level of service provided and are thrilled to return home to happy, pampered pets who've made a new friend! There's no need to schlep to the kennel for pet drop offs and pickups after your vacation. That means... More time for you to relax! I have been caring for animals and providing in-home dog and cat sitting services in the Chicago North Shore area for over 20 years. Now a resident of Southwest Florida and a responsible, caring dog & cat lover (and pet owner). Serving pet sitting clients in Naples, Marco Island, and Bonita Springs area. Please Note: Clients will be charged per dog & per cat for in-home pet sits as well as for walks/visits. You can see the full price list for dogs & cats in our care under "Services" and by clicking on "Additional Services and Rates". Dog breeds I have walked and cared for include: Golden Retrievers, Great Danes, Cane Corso, Cocker Spaniel, Australian Shepherd, Portuguese Water Dog, Beagles, Bichon Frise, Poodles, West Highland Terrier, German Shepherd, Maltese, Pekingese, Yorkshire Terriers, Siberian Husky, Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, Australian Cattle Dog, Sheepdog, Labrador Retrievers (Labs), Tibetan Terrier, Carolina Dog, English Bulldogs, and Boxers. Whether your dog needs plenty of exercise and fun during the day or pet sitting while you're away, I will make sure your animal friends get the special attention and individualized care that they deserve. As a separate service, I also offer our clients 1 Hour Walks and outdoor exercise / play sessions in your local parks. These extended visits and outdoor sessions are a great way for your dogs to get their much-needed exercise, attention, and play when you are pressed for time or traveling. Free meet & greet sessions are available for new clients! We can schedule a meetup to get acquainted and go over your dog's care needs and vet info before the first dog-sit.

David did a great job with our dogs! He communicated frequently and shared photos. Our dog who does not make friends easily came to trust him very quickly. We felt very comfortable trusting our dogs in our home with David.

David did a great job taking care of my dogs. He was very proactive in getting information, came on time, texted updates regularly, etc. My dogs loved him. And he left the house very neat and tidy. I will definitely ask him to watch my dogs in the future.

Things went fine other than I’d like a text when insulin was given to make sure it stayed on schedule. Very conscientious about making sure my travel plans stayed on time and actually changed plans by 2 days as my outgoing flight was canceled.

David is a perfect dog (and house) sitter! Our labradoodles, Jessie and Orwell, told us they adore him. Most importantly, we were able to take a week's vacation knowing that our precious babies (who can be a handful) were safe, cared for and happy. David kept us updated with texts and photos which we so appreciated. He even handled a vendor situation at our house when he couldn't reach us (which was above and beyond). And, he is a great housekeeper :-). We highly recommend David (and he is sitting again for us next month). Thanks, David!!!!!!!!!
