Greetings, my name is Evan. I am a semi-retired pet sitter who has more than 10 years of experience under my belt. If you're unsure, my reviews speak for themselves! I've spend a majority of my life working with dogs and cats, whether they be my own, a friends, or clients. I hold a great passion for animals and providing them the happiest life they can have. I apply this love and care to all animals I meet, especially my clients. As a 6'1" 250lb man, I am able able to manage dogs of every size. I address each dog as an individual and try to find what works best for them and his/her/their owner. I want you to feel your dog is receiving the best care possible. When your pet is with me, they will receive the same discipline and rules that you have set in your house. Keeping your pets on the same routine is ideal for their mental well-being. In my professional life, I occasionally work remotely for a large tech company, so a strong Wi-Fi connection is required. In my personal life, I am an aspiring writer, so I look forward to cuddling with your pet and working on my next novel. Who knows, maybe they'll be in it! If you're asking "What does semi-retired mean to me?" Well, it means that this isn't a major source of income for me. I love dogs, and am unable to care for one due to my current living situation (have plenty of cats don't worry), so this is my way of having that part of me fulfilled! As a result, I may be more particular when choosing my clientele. You will likely be asked to describe your home and it's amenities (Wi-Fi, A/C, Heating, Guest Room). FAQ: Q: "What do you mean by 'Semi-Retired?" A: It basically means I'm more particular when taking clients, as this is no longer a form of income I depend on. In regards to me being particular, I will not sleep on floors, couches, or futons. This is a complete deal-breaker for me. I'm not in my early twenties anymore, so I need a good nights rest so I am at my best to take care of your lovely companion animals. Q: "Why are your rates more expensive than others?" A: In short: I am good at what I do! My availability often outmatches many other sitters due to my work accommodations to work remotely. I am not looking to spread myself thin to earn a living like many other full-time sitters do. If I need to be in office, you will always know ahead of time. I am strictly one client at a time. Finally, my reviews speak for themselves. Read them. They're great.
