Pet care experience

Retired, trustworthy dog lover

I had the good fortune to retire early at 53. Recently moved permanently to Key Largo. I have the time to properly care for your fur baby in your home or do walks or drop in visits. I’m not doing this to make a living. I’m available because I love dogs. I treat them like they are my children. I’m extremely honest, dependable and trustworthy. I like to teach each dog something as I interact with them. I enjoy training and highly encourage play and exercise. I’ve had dogs all my life. Many different sizes and breeds. I promised to love, protect and care for every one from the first day to the last. I will do the same for your furry friend every time I care for them. I can watch any kind of dog, young, old, energetic or chill.

The best experience ever for a first time sitting, last minute & during the holidays! It was hard to leave Anewbie during Christmas but Kerry & Patty made me & Anewbie at ease with their kind hearts, warm abode and their gentle approach. I was updated regularly with photos & captions. If possible I think he was spoiled more than at home ? Definitely a happy fur baby & fur baby parent with Kerry & Patty. Thank you again!!

Kerry was fantastic yet again! I know our great dane, Daisy, has a great place to stay everytime she's at Kerry's home. She's well loved and cared for. He's even been trying to teach this big dog some new tricks. Will definitely be coming back!

Kerry took care of my lab Belle as if she was his own. His girlfriend Patty did too. They showed her so much love while I was away on vacation. Provided me with updates and great pics of her too. He even agreed to keep her an extra day because I wouldn’t have made it back in time and then went out of his way to buy her more dog food because she had ran out. I def would keep using him to take care of her in the future. I appreciated everything he did. She was def in good hands. Highly recommend!!

Lucas’s 1st stay with Kerry was great! Kerry was able to accommodate us on short notice and responded to messages quickly. He sent great pics and kept Lucas well entertained with his favorite playtime, fetch. He and his girlfriend treated Lucas like their own. Will definitely add Kerry to our list of preferred sitters. See you next time!

Kerry was exceptional. I got so many high quality photos while we were away. Milo seemed to have a great time and got a lot of outdoor time as well. We'll definitely be back!

Kerry has always LOVED dogs and treats every dog as if they were his own, showering them with love and respect. I have no doubt he would take excellent care of your puppy. He comes highly recommended!
