Pet care experience
My family always had dogs as I was growing up and I was active in the process of training and caring for them. I am a passionate animal lover and though I don't currently have a dog of my own (I live in a small apartment with my cat) I am eager to craft a relationship with your dog. When dealing with animals, I believe that compassion is always the best option. Treating animals with kindness and respect is a central part of my worldview, whether your dog is a tiny puppy who can barely walk on the leash or a senior dog who has been on hundreds of walks in her life. The care that I can provide a dog is love-based, both in that I truly love interacting with dogs and that it is my view that bringing as much love to the situation as possible is the best method for assuring that dogs are safe and happy. This applies both to walks and sitting. I want to know what your dog is used to, what makes her or him comfortable, and what I can do to ensure your furry companion is happy while in my care. Compassion first, always! Even though cats and dogs are different in some ways, caring for my wonderful cat whom I love with all my heart has taught me a lot about compassionate and responsible animal care. I hope to bring the same level of compassion and responsibility to caring for your pet!
Reviews
Deven was kind and a reliable sitter. His stay with us was very straightforward, and my dog Bruno warmed up to him- which can be a tall order for a pup with separation anxiety!
Deven is great!! I came home to a very happy (and less hyper) dog. He stayed a little bit over just to make sure that my dog settled down. Thanks for walking Summer, Deven.
Being away from your beloved animals is made so much less stressful when you have someone to care for them who you can trust and depend on, and there's no one I trust more fully with my animals than Deven. He was so incredible with them, and communicated with me every step of the way. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a true animal lover who will take great care of their pets, and go out of his way to meet their needs.
Deven was a pleasure to work with! He was proactive in his communication with me, responsive, and left me detailed notes about his time with the dogs. One of my dogs has a mild heart condition, and the other can sometimes be wary of strangers, but he handled both challenges with grace and compassion. I’d definitely book him again and recommend him to other dog parents. Thanks, Deven!
