Pet care experience

A Dog (and Cat’s) Best Friend!

I've been taking care of pets since I was a teenager. My family was constantly adopting stray dogs and cats to give them a loving home so I've developed a variety of skills to help address the special needs of our four legged friends. I'm great at adapting activities to the needs of each pet be it playing fetch with a high energy Lab or curling up quietly with high anxiety cat. My home has a safe enclosed yard for pets to enjoy privately and I live close to a pet friendly park for long walks or social interaction.

Kevin is a fantastic dog sitter and walker. Our dogs (we have two big dogs) love him and he sends great updates.

Kevin is the most caring pup sitter. He not only provides the kindest care but also goes above and beyond to share constant photos and videos of your beloved fur babies, making you feel truly comfortable and reassured. So thankful and grateful for Kevin!

Kevin did a great job! Sent pictures and updates. Came home to a happy dog and a clean house. Looking forward to using him again.

Dog Walking • May 05, 2026

Kevin is a great match for our two dogs. We have big dogs (75 lbs & 80 lbs) so walking them is no small undertaking. Kevin has taken time and care to get to know them (and us) to get things off to a successful start.

Kevin watched our dog Luna for the second time and we highly recommend him! He’s communicative and flexible. Luna had a great time!

As always, Kevin is a rockstar when it comes to Senior dogs. He is so kind and patient with my pup who is 14 1/2. I love that he is so in tune with her and her needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a safe enclosed yard for pet to play in. I can crate your pet if requested. I can provide a separate safe space for pets if requested. I currently have no other pets in my home.

A typical day

Sometimes I think I enjoy playing games with dogs as much as they do, and have been doing so since I was a kid. It is important to me to meet each dog where they are, meaning I like to find activities that they enjoy and go from there. I love playing fetch (with their favorite item). I’ve taught dogs to catch, jump, sit, shake, roll over, and even to swim. I’ve taught my mother’s dog to play hide and seek with treats (I hade them and he finds them). I recently watched a lab who played soccer with me! I love walking dogs and if space allows running relays or chasing frisbees is great.

The more I know about your dog the better companion I can be. What are their likes and dislikes? Do they have any fears or sensitivity to certain stimuli? Of course any illness, pain, or other issues are important to know. I want to make sure that they have the best possible time with me for both their enjoyment and your peace of mind!
