Information Kevin R. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know your pet’s daily routine, feeding preferences, medications, allergies, behavioral quirks, and comfort triggers. For cats, I like to know how they prefer affection, litter habits, and any hiding spots. For dogs, leash behavior, commands, reactivity, and energy levels are important. Emergency contacts, vet information, and house rules are also appreciated so I can provide consistent, confident care.

A typical day

A typical day is structured but calm and centered around the pet’s normal routine. I start with feeding, fresh water, and a quick health and mood check. For cats, that means litter maintenance, gentle interaction, and quiet companionship. For dogs, it includes walks, enrichment, and play balanced with rest. Throughout the day, I make sure pets feel secure, comfortable, and not overstimulated. I end the day with evening care, a clean space, and quality one-on-one time. Activities are tailored to each pet’s personality and energy level. Dogs enjoy walks, structured play, light training reinforcement, and mental enrichment games. Cats get interactive play, window time, enrichment toys, brushing if they enjoy it, and calm bonding time. I always follow the pet’s cues—some want play, others just want presence—and I make sure activities are safe, positive, and stress-free.

KJ was great! And provided lots of photos and videos which helped us be ease free on our vacation! Came home to full food and water bowls and a happy pup!

Kevin was absolutely amazing! He took great care of my dog and made the whole experience stress-free and easy. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural way with animals. I could tell my dog was comfortable and happy with him, which means everything to me. He went above and beyond, and I truly appreciate the care and attention he gave. I would 100% recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a trustworthy, professional, and genuinely kind dog walker. I’ll definitely be booking him again!

Kevin was fantastic with my dog and immediately built trust. He kept a great routine with walks, feeding, and play, and I came home to a calm, happy pup and a spotless house. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.
