Pet care experience
P.S. My name is Isaiah Hunter Slagboom. My friend, Ethan S. calls me Hunter instead of Isaiah because we have another friend named Isaiah! So yeah just wanted to clarify that with you 😃 Pet Care Experience I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for years, always with deep respect for their unique personalities, needs, and energy. Whether it’s a playful high-energy pup 🐾, a shy senior who needs patience and calm, or a curious cat who thrives on consistency—I adapt to their rhythm, not the other way around My experience includes: • Daily dog walking with positive behavior correction • Overnight care and comfort routines • Basic training reinforcement • Support for senior pets and anxiety-prone animals I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood—not just watched ❤️ ⸻ 💼 WHAT SETS ME APART Pet care isn’t a side hustle—it’s a lifestyle and long-term mission. I approach this work with the precision, enthusiasm, and accountability of a high-level professional What makes me different? • I build trust not just with pet parents—but with the animals themselves • I read body language, adjust energy, and treat every visit like the most important one of the day • I hold myself to a top-tier standard: clear communication, on-time care, full attention And I’m not done growing. 🙂↔️ I’m currently pursuing certifications in: • Dog & cat behavior • Canine cognition • Animal training science I combine that knowledge with hands-on experience to give your pet a premium care experience—whether it’s a walk, a visit, or an extended stay! Because your pet deserves nothing less than the best😀

Reviews
Hunter is an excellent pet caregiver who provides exceptional services to any given pet. He watched my morbidly fat dog with attention to detail and care. Highly recommended.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, safety is always my first priority. I live with a friendly, well-cared-for cat, and I make sure the environment is calm, clean, and free of anything that could stress or harm your pet The apartment door stays closed at all times, and I keep a close eye on the space—especially when pets are transitioning or curious. I regularly check for anything out of place and make sure your pet feels secure and relaxed whether they’re napping, exploring, or just hanging out When I care for pets in a client’s home, I always respect the rules of the home and prioritize safety, routine, and cleanliness. Whether it’s locking gates, following feeding routines, or monitoring behavior, I treat your space and your pet with full focus and responsibility
Information Isaiah S. would like to know about your pet
Before we start, I’d love to know anything important about your pet that will help me give them the best care possible. Please let me know if your pet has: • Any medical conditions, medications, or special needs • Sensitivities (to noise, people, or other animals) • Food restrictions or allergies • Behavioral quirks (pulling on walks, digging, chewing, jumping fences, etc.) • Anxiety, reactivity, or past trauma No matter what your pet needs—from extra patience to specialized routines—I’ll be ready and happy to support them. My goal is always to give safe, loving, and expert care tailored to your pet’s unique personality
A typical day
A typical day with your pet is all about fun, love, structure, and safety. I keep pets mentally and physically active through play, walks, affection, and positive training techniques. I love interactive games that stimulate their mind—whether it’s fetch, gentle tug, or recall training mixed into fun If a pet starts to misbehave, I use calm correction, redirection, and patience—always in a way that builds trust, not fear. I’m firm when needed, but I always lead with gentle consistency and affection I’m big on cuddles, companionship, and calm energy too—especially for pets who just need someone warm by their side There’s a beautiful, spacious park in Camarillo near the airport that’s perfect for dogs who love open space and new smells. I always keep pets in sight, safe, and under control—no off-leash chaos here If you ever want to observe for 5–10 minutes during a walk or visit, I’d be happy to show you how I work. I take this job seriously and always give 100% focus and care to your pet
