Dependable Care for Dogs & Cats
Hi my name is Gavin and I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life! I have always lived with at least 3 at a time. My love and appreciation for Dogs are endless! I’ve had big and small dogs, pit bulls and pugs to German Shepherd. My special skills include handling big, hyper and clingy dogs but of course I love small dogs!

Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in their own home by following their normal routine and their owner’s instructions as closely as possible. I provide feeding and fresh water, walks and potty breaks, playtime and companionship, and litter-box or basic cleanup. I’m also comfortable giving oral and topical medications, as I give my own cat oral medication every day. I’ll send photos and updates as often as the owner prefers, and I’ll always treat their pet and home with care and respect.
Ratings and reviews
I have had many dog sitters but no one has been better than Gavin. He is so respectful and is an animal whisper, I know he has three of his own dogs and has grown up with them his entire life. I have a chihuahua and a pit bull so he is good with any type of dog, big, small, calm, or hyper. He is very responsible to take care of any dog as he has so much love for animals in general. I highly recommend him as a dog sitter to anyone!

Schedule
Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I’m generally free Monday through Wednesday aside from brief errands. This allows me to spend most of the day with pets while house sitting and gives me plenty of flexibility for drop-in visits and walks. I can plan my day around each pet’s normal feeding, potty, exercise, and care schedule so they receive consistent attention and companionship.

- Before caring for a pet, I’d like to know their normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, medical needs, and any fears or triggers they may have. Please also let me know how they behave around people and other animals, their leash habits, and whether they have any history of aggression or trying to escape. Emergency and veterinary contact information is also helpful.
