Highlights
Pet care experience
Care for pets, like family
My wife and I both grew up in homes with dogs, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of our lives. We understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and little quirks—and we genuinely enjoy getting to know them. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or simply keeping your pet comfortable while you’re away, we’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and care. We’re also comfortable with dogs of different ages and needs, from energetic pups to seniors who need a little extra patience. Most importantly, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. We’re dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets with the same kindness and respect we give our own.

Schedule
I work from home, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I’m already active with walks and workouts, so including dogs or cats in my routine feels natural. Whether it’s morning, evening, or weekends, I can give pets the consistency and attention they need.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I work from home, so pets are never left alone for long. I’m active and make sure dogs get plenty of walks, play, and attention. In your home, I follow routines exactly as you lay them out, keeping pets comfortable in their own space. I create a safe, calm environment where they feel looked after like family.
Pets
A typical day
I love being active, but I also get that every pet has different needs. My parents’ border collie sometimes demands two hours of fetch to be happy, while my own miniature poodle, Ace, is content with a few playful energy spurts and a good walk. I can play both sides from calm hangouts to full-out play sessions. Since I already run, train at the gym, and stay active every day, keeping up with high-energy pets feels natural, and I’m just as good at slowing down for the more easygoing ones.

- It helps me to know what your pet is like day to day how they are around you, your family, and new people. Understanding their routine, energy level, and quirks gives me a clear picture of what they need and how I can make them comfortable while having a good time with me. The more I know, the better I can care for them.
