Dennis was excellent! Ruthie got lots of walks and love during her day care stay and was sufficiently tired when she came home. Dennis was great with communication and timely for pickup and drop off. We recommend Dennis and plan to utilize his services again.

Dennis took excellent care of my beloved cat, Felicity, while I traveled out of state. He was (i) communicative (e.g., confirming before visits were scheduled to begin and sharing pictures during visits), (ii) reliable (e.g., arriving ahead of schedule), and (iii) mindful of my cat's particular needs (e.g., having several meal options available, watching cat tv, etc.). I highly recommend others to book Dennis as a pet sitter and cannot wait to work with him again. Forever grateful, Felicity and Renisha.

Information Dennis K. would like to know about your pet

1. What is your dog's daily routine like, including feeding, walking, and playtime? 2. Does your dog have any medical conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions? 3. How does your dog behave around other dogs, people, and children? 4. What commands does your dog know, and are there any training preferences or specific behaviors to reinforce? 5. Do you have any preferences or concerns regarding your dog's care, such as grooming, favorite toys, or communication during their stay?

A typical day

My day starts by prioritizing the needs of the pets I care for. I begin with walks, feeding, and playtime to ensure they're happy and comfortable. Then, I transition to organizing my project management tasks and ensuring everything is on track. Working from home allows me to give pets the attention they need throughout the day. With access to pet-friendly amenities in my building, like the spa and dog park, I can provide them with a stimulating environment. Balancing pet care and work ensures that animals receive consistent attention and care. Whether it's a play session or a mealtime routine, I make sure to prioritize their well-being, making each day enjoyable for them.
