Devin can care for

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs

Availability

I am currently a general contractor making my schedule very open, my wife loves helping with pets of all kinds as well which allows for more care opportunities. The only thing that wouldn't likely work would be multiple days of house sitting IF I am not able to leave for 3-4 hours at a time. I have a hard time spending an extended amount of time not being able to see my infant son!

Former trainer and boarding manager

Pet care experience

I used to work as a certified dog trainer and managed a daycare / boarding facility for 2 years. I was an employee there for longer. 12 hour days every day with dogs of all types. I know how to administer medications, including insulin. I also know how to handle myself in emergency situations, I've learned dog first aid and I've broken up fights in my time that would've been deadly if I wasn't there.

Devin and Kelsey were amazing with our anxious schnauzer for drop in visits while we were away. They went above and beyond to comfort her during their visits. I highlight recommended them and would rebook in the future.

He was there for all visits when scheduled. He took the time to visit with Frog and send reports and pictures. Also, he responds to texts right away.
