Pet care experience

Reliable Sitter with Zoology Degree

I am a passionate, hard working and highly reliable lifelong pet lover with over 35 years of experience caring for a variety of pets (dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, fish, etc.), both at home and while working at a veterinary clinic. I have an undergraduate degree in Zoology, and a master's in Science Education. I spent many years working in the pet supply industry, where I developed a deep expertise in the field of dog and cat nutrition. During that time I did nutritional consulting with individuals, as well as presenting on radio and to students at the UW-Madison veterinary college. I also have a deep love of dog training, including agility and frisbee. Additionally, my wife and I helped friends start a farm, where we lived for four years raising and milking goats, as well as tending chickens and pigs.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I believe in treating pets with the utmost of care since they are reliant on us for their needs. I have a fully fenced yard, a friendly cat, and we are new parents of a young Australian Shepherd pup, born Feb 24, 2023.

It's important for me to know about any allergies, medical needs, and dietary restrictions or preferences. It’s also helpful to know things that may produce fear in your pet, and those that might settle or calm to aid them in being comfortable while you're away.
