Pet Lover w/ Vet Clinic Background

Pet care experience

I'm a dedicated cat-dad of 2 male cats with recent experience working with dogs and cats in a veterinary clinic. I have knowledge in taking care of young and senior animals due to my vet training and personal pet parenting. I had an elderly cat who required a fair bit of care including oral & topical medications and SQ fluids (drip-bag). My friends bring their cats and dogs over frequently while visiting, so my cats are used to having other animals in the house. I also pet sit for my friend's cats/ dogs. Because my friends bring their pets over, I make sure to keep my house pet friendly and safe.

Griffin was amazing! He was very friendly, kept us updated on how our dog was doing, and even took him on walks. The dog seemed to have a great time! We will defiantly use him again!

I trust Griffin with my puppy (Sazerac) more than anyone else! If available, I’ll go out of my way to have Griffin watch Sazerac, instead of someone more conveniently located to me (I live out of town). He fully encompasses someone who genuinely loves and cares for all animals. It’s clear he gets true joy from playing and spending time with Saz, and I never have to worry about my pup’s safety and happiness when I’m away. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

Griffin is the most caring, responsible, and focus driven towards animals than anyone I know. Griffin being vegan, he tends to put animals first no matter what lol He is very experienced around animals and family/ friends tend to ask Griffin to watch their animals because they know their pets are in god hands. I know Griffin would be a great fit and option.

Griffin has watched my dog several times and we’ve always had an amazing experience. I have an Australian shepherd who can be a handful, and has a bit of separation anxiety, but seems to always look forward to hanging out with Griffin! You can really tell that he loves caring for animals, and they love being around him. When he has come over to my house, my two cats are attached to him at the hip, and he is so gentle with them and takes the time to learn their cues and quirks. If you ever need someone to love on your pet while you’re gone, Griffin is definitely your guy!

If you can answer any/all of the following, it will help your pets visit be more comfortable: -Has pet been boarded before (how often)? -What is pets flea prevention status? -What non-pet item does your pet try to get into (cables, plants, socks/shoes, paper, human food, etc)?

For pets who prefer to relax and lounge all day, there's plenty of room here for that and it's encouraged. For more active pets, I'm also very active and into health and fitness, so there will be no shortage of play time and walks.
