Thoughtful & Joyful Pet Care

Hi I'm Déy, I really enjoy the company of cats and dogs, and getting to know them as individuals. A little about me: when I was 14 I took over the majority of the pet responsibilities in my family, and have loved it ever since. Sadly, I dont have pets of my own right now, but still love caring for them. I have tons of patience and will happily practice and reinforce adolescent dog training. I also have experience with anxious and/or nervous pets, and senior dogs. Accidents don't easily gross me out. I'll enjoy the walk as much as the pups do!

Safety, trust & environment

On walks, all pups receive my undivided attention. I build up familiarity with confidence and gentleness for hesitant animals who may take a while to warm up to a new person. Routines are important and I follow a pet's established routines when housesittting (with my own flair). Always making sure their areas are clean.

Dey was so fantastic with our reactive dog. Such a calm person and our dog seemed so at ease. Dey left the house in great shape! Couldn’t have asked for anything better!

Dey has been great with my pets, currently just my cat. They roll with their changing needs and keep them entertained and happy while I am away. My dog had complicated needs in his last months and they had no problem following a slow low vision dog as he went for his sniffs. I highly recommend them!

Déy was fantastic with our cat, Obsidian (Sid). They were responsive and communicative and I could tell Sid was comfortable around them from the photos they sent with updates. That made my partner and I feel at ease during our trip. They were flexible with leaving a little bit later the last day in order to make sure she wasn't left alone too long and had dinner. They also let us know that if there were any delays, they could stick around which was greatly appreciated. They also washed the bedding and remade the bed which was an absolute blessing after getting in late. The house was so clean and orderly and our cat was happy as can be. Déy was an absolute delight to have as a sitter and I couldn't recommend them more!
