Pet care experience

Looking for some good dogs!

For the last 10 or so years I have been taking care of peoples pets. Most recently I was living in Jackson, WY and was able to consistently get more and more pet sitting gigs that lasted anywhere from 3 to 11 nights. If housesitting I'm always happy to toss some dishes in the washer, or vacuum so that when you get home, things are nice and tidy. I also have a pressure washer and all the equipment needed to bring a car wash to you while you are out.

Safety, trust & environment

Just making sure doors are locked and I know where the pet is at all times. This also goes for mandatory leashing. I just want to make sure there are no problems, especially in a urban environment like Denver.

Gates was awesome! Very understanding of our nervous dog and very communicative. He also left our house spotless. Highly recommend!

Gates was absolutely amazing with Blue, Rizzo, Opal, and Mushu while we were away! He took such great care of all four of our pets, each with their own personality and needs. We got regular updates and photos, which really helped us relax on our trip knowing they were in great hands. When we got home, everyone was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. Gates went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!
