Availability
As a retiree, I have a lot of discretionary time. If in the Washtenaw County area, I may need to run some two-three-hour errands during any given day. That will all be cleared in advance.

About Gordon D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am attentive to the pets, and often stop what I'm doing to give them attention. I am excited when they come into the room. And I am exceedingly patient and gentle.
Information Gordon D. would like to know about your pet
I am a sitter. I do no need a sitter for my dog. But I will complete this field anyway so that I can finish the profile.
A typical day
I will follow whatever routine the pet parents advise. But barring that . . . I would let them out any time they need to. If their yard is not fenced nor has electric barrier, I will supervise them whether or not a leash is called for. If they need attention, I frequent stop what I'm doing and pet them a little. I also set my own gentle boundaries, so that sometimes I can be left along (like, if I'm working, preparing food, etc.)

Pet care experience
I started house/pet-sitting earlier this year. I love it! My two extended-stay experiences included an apartment with two cats, and a home with two boxers. I received superior reviews from both clients. I am fit, can go on long walks, and leave the place cleaner than I found it!
Reviews
Very happy to have had Gordon watch our dogs and home. From start to finish he was very thorough and responsible. The house looked great when we got back, and we know the dogs were very well cared for.
We had an excellent experience with our house/pet sitter, Gordon. I was nervous having a stranger in our home and with our pets, but from the start, he was great at communicating with me. That continued while we were away with daily texts and photos. It put our minds at ease knowing they were being taken care of so well. We came home to happy pets and a spotless house. He even went out of his way to schedule things around our dog who requires special attention and medication. Would definitely book again.
