Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy to take care of your buddy.
Through either the companion animals my wife and I have welcomed into our home, or through the work I did at the local animal shelter as both a kennel attendant and volunteer, one of my few passions in life is providing care to and spending time with animals. For a number of years, I lived with companion rabbits—our time with them taught me a lot of patience, and gave me a heightened sense of when something might be wrong with their health. For a few years we lived with a special needs cat, and we currently are living with an Olde English Bulldog—all of these animals are of course different, for myriad reasons, but they also have a number of similarities in the personalities that if you spend enough time around them, you'll grow to see and understand. The time I spent as a volunteer and attendant at the shelter was a great lesson in how to be efficient and effective in tending to a number of animals at once—sometimes upwards of 20 cats that all needed their areas cleaned, food and water refreshed, and sometimes given medication. As a volunteer I worked with especially shy and frightened animals who had recently been surrendered and were not adjusting well to life at the shelter. This, like my own time living with rabbits, was the chance to learn more patience, and work with an animal until they open up more.

Safety, trust & environment
In my own home, I more or less put an animal's needs ahead of my own. If I were to check in on an animal of any kind in someone else's home, I would be respectful of their house rules, and also try to get to know the animal within their own space and interact with them there.
Ratings and reviews
We so appreciate Kevin's kindness, professionalism, and flexibility in helping take care of Mom's dog. Brady looks forward to his walks with Kevin and we have peace of mind knowing that he is with someone we trust!
Kevin looked after my four rabbits recently, and he did a great job!! Everybun was happy and healthy when I got home, and I enjoyed the photos and updates while I was away. My rabbits are my children, and it is very important to me to find someone who understands the needs and care of rabbits, and I was in safe hands with Kevin, as he has had rabbit companions in the past, and also supports rabbit rescue, which is very important to me. I would not hesitate to recommend Kevin as a sitter for your beloved pet.
I have been a caretaker for Kevin's animals (rabbit, cat, and...snail) several times. I consider this an honor because Kevin takes this role very seriously, and it shows that he trusts me. Kevin considers every animal an individual with dignity, and he is attentive to their unique needs. I am certain he will extend the same consideration to any dog in his care. He is also perfectly punctual and detail-oriented. He'll make a great guardian and walking buddy for some dog friends.
Kevin cares deeply about animals and it shows in how attentive and patient he is when he interacts with them. Kevin has a rescue bulldog of his own and it is wonderful to see the joy that playing, walking and simply being with his dog brings him. Kevin has volunteered and worked at an animal shelter and has cared for animals with a variety of different needs. He is extremely reliable, trustworthy and proactive and goes above and beyond in providing safe and enjoyable environments and interaction with each dog and animal he meets!

Schedule
I am, like, very available to care for your animal. Friday and Saturday I have a commitment in the morning, but would be ready to check in on whomever after 11 a.m certainly, and I would like to think that overall, I am relatively flexible and can manage time well.
