Pet care experience

I am an actor and animal lover currently living in the Pawling area. When I was a child, my parents frequently babysat dogs for friends/neighbors and I learned from an early age the responsibility necessary for the job. I've had 5 dogs in my life as well as many cats and other various pets. Without a doubt, dogs are my favorite animal to be around! I am 6' 3" and specialize in taking care of larger dogs. I've personally raised a German Shepard, Golden Retriever, Pitbull, and an English Doberman. In addition to this, I can provide smaller dogs with hours of play time and care. I also can provide dog walking services, cat sitting, and sitting for other animals, such as birds, hamsters, fish, reptiles, and rabbits. If I stay in your home while caring for your dogs, I always leave the apartment cleaner than I found it. I have been pet sitting on and off since childhood. I've taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes - from Toy Poodles to Mastiffs! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was 3 years old. I have vivid memories of my parents bringing home the dogs of various neighbors and friends to dog sit. My love for playing with and taking care of dogs has never stopped growing. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication in both cats and dogs.

Kevin did an excellent job with my two larger and not especially well behaved dogs. I appreciated how communicative he was and that he came without hardly any notice. I’ll be booking him again in the future!

Kevin is excellent! Caring, flexible, affable and communicates well with his clients! Maxx and Daisy love him, and I don't have to feel bad going to work and leaving them!

Kevin's great! He's taken care of Shadow before and come to meet the boys before hand. He had no problem syringe feeding our senior until we could be home to hand feed him, and he took great care of the boys. Sent pictures/ updates. The best.
