Pet care experience
Dogs have been a part of my life since birth, there have been very few years of my life where my family didn't include a kitchen tripping hazard. While away from home in college I studied animal behavior, leaning, and cognition, and eventually adopted my own dog Thad. He was as stubborn as huskies get and had some awful habits that I worked on with help from school and my own personal research. Now he's St. Thaddeus, patron saint of good boys, and my best friend. Since then I've applied what I learned from him in several situations with dogs of friends and family. My biggest motivation and most useful tool is the knowledge that every thinking creature is capable of learning and adjusting their behavior if given enough time and proper instruction.
Reviews
I would be happy to recommend Sully as a competent, caring, dog sitter. He was easy to contact while I was away for 9 days. My dog and cat were well taken care of and seemed calm and happy when I returned home. The house was clean and I appreciate the time he spent with them.

I have a large mowed yard and well manicured trails through the woods behind my house for walks on the leash, and several rooms that can be used for keeping pets separate if necessary or desired. I also attend classes online so apart from taking care of other dogs I'm usually home

As an online student I have an open schedule apart from Sundays. I can do Sat-Sun or Sun-Mon overnights and early or late visits if needed, but the majority of my Sundays are booked.
