Caring for those you love
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs: Pitbull (for the last 6 years), Dachshund (4 years), Labrador (2 years). I’ve also taken care of more than 10 puppies three years in a row during my dog’s birthing years. I’ve cared for cats, while having two of my own. I’ve been known to be a cat whisperer and have been able to care for cats that sometimes are difficult to manage. I’ve cared for chickens, fish, plants, and general house chores as well!
Reviews
Dylan is an outstanding asset and I will definitely book him again!!! Really great communication and Diego now has a new friend. :-)
Dylan has dog/house sat for us on several occasions while we’ve been out of town. He is one of the kindest souls you’ll meet and your pet will sense that as well. Rhett, our dog, is always excited to see his “Uncle” Dylan. The care of your pet will always be his first priority and the trust we have for him to stay in our home is paramount so that we know Rhett is as comfortable as possible while his parents are away. When we can’t take Rhett with us, Dylan takes the stress out of leaving him behind. Book him before I do!
Dylan has house-sat/ pet-sat for us for years now. We have several dogs, a couple "garage" cats and even chickens that he's cared for numerous times when we've been away. We also have a good sized garden with multiple raised beds and flower beds during the growing season. We always find the house in good shape upon our return and he does a great job overall taking care of our mini farm. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dylan!
Dylan is a long time friend of mine and he has always had and loved his pets as long as I can remember. Growing up he had two dogs that meant the world to him, including a few litters of puppies he helped raise. He now has two cats that he very much loves and takes care of. He’s also a very responsible person and keeps a very organized calendar at all times and always prioritizes his pet sitting engagements over other plans.

I have two indoor cats myself! I’ve cared for outside cats, indoor dogs, indoor/outdoor dogs. I am comfortable with care for your pet to your specifications. For pets, movement is important and I am prepared to care for your pets indoor and outdoor.
Information Dylan S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know how your pet interacts with other humans, pets, and environmental factors (rain, thunder, load noises). Never shy away from telling me everything about your pet so I can care for them as you would while you are away!
A typical day
I love to walk dogs (and cats, if that is something they are used to) around the neighborhood they live in. Most times, dogs aren’t thrilled to be put in a car and taken to a park, so I will most likely stick to the neighborhood you live in. When we aren’t walking and if the pets want to play, I’ll play with them but also give them time to rest and cuddle.

Availability
I work full time as an IT technician. I have flexibility during lunch hours for midday potty breaks and do not schedule anything on top of my sitting days. The only time I spend away from your house or pet is when at work.
