Highlights
Pet care experience
Passionate Pet Owner
With 9 years of hands-on pet care experience and a dog and cat of my own, I understand what pets need to feel safe and comfortable away from home. I'm attentive to each animal's unique personality and routine, ensuring they get the same love and care I give my own. Your pet isn't just a booking they're family.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in your home, my approach is always attentive, consistent, and loving. I understand that familiar surroundings make a big difference — especially for pets who are anxious or routine-driven. I follow each pet's established schedule closely, from feeding times to walks and playtime, so they feel calm and comfortable while you're away. As a remote freelancer with open availability, I'm never rushing in and out. I dedicate real, unhurried time to every pet in my care, treating your home and your animal with the same respect and attention I'd give my own.

I cannot say enough great things about Ernest! Our two boys Wes and Bart absolutely love him :) he was punctual, communicative and overall did an excellent job. I highly recommend and would certainly book with him again!


Ernest was amazing! He was so reliable, and took such great care of my puppy, Taco! Taco is so looking forward to continuing to walk and spend time with you! Thanks so much for this!
Pippin warmed up to Ernest right away! He was so kind and send me lots of pictures to help me feel at ease.

Ernest is exactly the kind of person you want caring for your pet. He is responsible, patient, and genuinely loves animals.

Schedule
As a freelance remote worker, pet care fits seamlessly into my everyday life. Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, I have open availability throughout the day meaning pets in my care are never left alone for long stretches. I'm always nearby to offer walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles on a consistent schedule. My lifestyle is built around being present, which makes caring for your pet feel less like a side job and more like a natural part of my day. I am also lucky to be surrounded by an abundance of green space and dog parks, with the Kay Beltline Trail right at my doorstep making every walk an adventure your pup will love.
