I'll treat your dog like family
Pet care experience
My philosophy: Pets are not possessions, humans do not own them. Pets are people. Pets are members of the family. I treat all living things with compassion, this even carries over into my being a vegetarian. I have cared for other peoples dogs for 3 years. Have been a cat parent for 30 years. I was a state licensed Emergency Medical Technician and worked in level 1 trauma centers for 4 years in Chicago. I have used my medical skills to provide oral medication and sub cutaneous fluids to four legged furry friends. I have called the police when I observed a dog locked in a hot car. And have yelled at colleagues who have left their dog chained out in the sun without water. When you choose me to provide care for your pets, I will treat them like my own.
Reviews
Fred provided excellent care for my furbabies. Not only did he makes sure their essential needs such as food, water, and clean litter were taken care of, he made sure they were happy too. He gave them treats, catnip, and played with them with their favorite toys. He is also great at giving medication. One of my cats needed to swallow pills and he had a great approach to getting this done without upsetting my cat. He also helped me through a hard time toward the end of one of my cats lives. He was able to give her IV fluids with great skill while keeping her safe and as comfortable as possible. I highly recommend him for any sitting needs and will definitely call on him again for his medical expertise.
Fred is a great help with our dog Maggie. Maggie is a sweet sheltie with a lot of energy and always in need of a lot of love. Fred has never let us down when we need someone to watch her or take her on walks. Maggie's eyes light up when he enters a room. He is a shining example of a pet caregiver and has had his own pets that he treats as members of his family. I recommend him with gusto!
