Lover of all types of pets!

Pet care experience

I've had or been around pets for as long as I can remember. I've watched all types of pets for friends and family over the years whether it's just checking in on them and taking them out for walks and feeding them, or house sitting as well as pet sitting. I have taken care of everything from 170 lb. Newfoundland to a 6 lb. 22 year old cat to various high energy cattle dog type breeds to my own 35 gallon fish tank that has a breeding pair of fish.

We had our first visit with Dillon today. My three dogs were very comfortable with him and he was equally comfortable with all the attention from them. Dillon is responsive and was on-time. We will book with Dillon again.

I have an energetic 4 month old puppy and Dillion was able to tire her out!

Dillon is an amazing pet caregiver - he's so patient with my noise phobic dog! I can always count on Dillon to be on-time and to follow the patterns/distractions I use to help my dog, Murphy, manage the world around him. Dillion's visits are always the highlight of Murphy's day and knowing that Dillon will be there to take care of my dog when I can't be there is a HUGE relief for me. Recommended 100%!

Safety, trust & environment

While my only pets currently are my fish, I do live in a house where dogs often come (My sister and many of my friends have cats and dogs). I do have a decent size backyard that is unfortunately not fenced in, but I often do set up a long lead that is tied to a tree when friends and family's dogs come over.

Information Dillon V. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any professional experience taking care of pets that have special needs or requirements, I do have a fair bit of personal experience with it and I'm more than happy to accommodate whatever needs or requirements you have, whether it is with your pets or in your home.

A typical day

I do like to lead a very active lifestyle, so higher energy pets or pets that like to go on long walks or hikes are a great fit for me. That being said, I also enjoy relaxing and being at home so pets that are not as high energy or are a little older and not as active are great with me as well

I'm free on weekends and on weekdays I work 11:00 to 6:00, during the summer sometimes I have to work longer than that but it's very occasional. I don't go out too much on weekends and if I do it's not typically for more than a few hours.
