Your pet is as good as SPOILED :)

Pet care experience

I am a devoted pet lover and owner of one very affectionate Boxer/American Staffordshire Terrier. He is a rescue from nearly 6 years ago and my second dog overall. I am also a former Accountant turned IT guy. Moreover, I am an athlete who spends a lot of time running and biking outdoors, hiking trails, and of course, lots of dog-walking. As a pet owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and responsible, and who will care for your precious family member with the same attention and devotion as one would expect from their owners; being reliable without cancelling at the last minute, and being a responsible fill-in for you in your own neighborhood and community. Let's face it, you have a busy enough work-life schedule. You shouldn't have to worry about whether your dog-walker or -sitter will let you down. Moreover, I won't be texting/talking on my phone while walking or caring for your dog either, but will be giving your dog(s) the time and attention he/she deserves. Why I love dog sitting I am the proud owner of a rambunctious Boxer/American Staffordshire terrier mix, who was a rescue from Tennessee. I have owned a cat, three fishes, 2 hamsters, and another boxer prior to my current dog. My experience administering medication Yes, I administer subcutaneous allergy injections for my dog every month. Giving your dog injections would not be a problem, if the need should ever arise. Needless to say, I can administer oral medication as needed also.

Ed is wonderfully caring, knowledgeable, and dependable. He's seen our dog, Plato, grow up from puppy to pooch, and we love knowing that Plato is always in excellent hands.

Our experience with Ed was great. He followed our care instructions meticulously, providing not only essential needs but also giving Baxter the extra attention and playtime he needed. The daily updates and photos were nice, easing our minds during our time away. We returned to a happy, well-cared-for cat, and we wholeheartedly recommend Ed for his service.

Information Edward K. would like to know about your pet

No preference. I find that it is always helpful to know what the breed's temperament is like on daily walks, as well as how much exercise is necessary for their particular breed.

A typical day
