Pet care experience
Grandfatherly Care For Your Pets
I've been a pet owner since I was a child. In our 40+ year marriage, my wife and I have owned two Maltese, two Shelties, and two Shih Tzus. Each pair simultaneously. Intermittently during the last four decades, we have also owned cats. In addition, I took care of our daughter's Labrador mix for a year while she studied in Europe. And now, I fly to Austin, Texas when she vacations to care for her Great Pyrenees, a Chihuahua mix, and a cat.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
We won't book anyone except Ed for our two golden retrievers - he is truly exceptional! (I think the dogs are secretly disappointed when we come home...)
Our cats always receive great care from Ed. He is detail-oriented and patient, has a great sense of humor, and is personable and reliable.
Ed is simply amazing. He is dependable and communicative. He goes above and beyond for both our dog and cat. We are incredibly grateful to have him in our corner to help take care of our fur babies.
Ed really goes the extra mile, not only for the pets for whom he is caring, but also with keeping their “parents” entertained with stories, puzzles, and humor. We look forward to each time he sits for us!
If I could leave Ed a 10-star review, I would! He was amazing - spent quality time with our two golden retrievers, played with them until they dropped, and accommodated our feeding a med schedules. Sent tons of photos and videos, we knew our dogs were in great hands!
We appreciate Ed’s humor and his meticulous care of our pets. We can relax while we are away, knowing that he is managing their needs.

Schedule
I currently manage the remnants of a company I founded from my basement office. My work typically occupies less than an hour daily and can be done outside regular business hours, so my pet care schedule is very flexible.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I regularly walk our Shih Tzus around the neighborhood and, weather permitting, take them to a nearby dog park. I also play Fetch with them in the house and give them daily massages. I usually take one of the dogs with me when I run errands in the car.
Pets
A typical day
Depending on your preference, I will walk your dogs around your neighborhood, take them to an area dog park, play Fetch with them, and watch them play with their toys in your house or backyard. If your dog plays well with other dogs, I can bring my younger Shih Tzu. I can bring a laser for your cat to chase or a dangling toy on a string for them to bat.
