Availability

Here’s a good way to phrase it: I’m currently between full-time roles, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and consistent care, and I can usually accommodate mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Because my schedule is open, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, stick closely to their routines, and be reliable for last-minute or recurring bookings.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities. In my home or a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications, and any house rules. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I always pay attention to the pet’s behavior and comfort level. I keep the environment calm, clean, and low-stress, especially for senior dogs or pets who need extra patience. I’ll also provide updates so owners know their pet is safe, cared for, and happy.

Information Kevin Y. would like to know about your pet

I like to know each pet’s normal routine ahead of time so I can keep them comfortable and consistent. This includes feeding schedule, walk/bathroom habits, energy level, favorite toys or activities, and any commands they know. It’s also important for me to know about any medical needs, allergies, anxiety, fears, leash behavior, or triggers around other dogs, people, or loud noises. The more I understand their personality and needs, the better I can make them feel safe, relaxed, and cared for.

A typical day

A typical day starts with making sure each pet feels comfortable and settled. I’ll follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and rest so they feel safe and cared for. For fun, I like doing activities based on the pet’s personality and energy level — walks around the neighborhood, fetch, tug toys, sniff breaks, training practice, or just relaxing and giving them attention if they’re more calm or senior. I’m very attentive to their mood, so I’ll make sure they get the right balance of exercise, affection, and downtime.

Pet care experience

Dogs and cats have been a meaningful part of my life for the past 18 years, and caring for them has taught me how much love, patience, and trust goes into pet care. I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will truly pay attention and treat them with kindness. What sets me apart is that I’m very detail-oriented and empathetic. I notice small changes in behavior, energy, appetite, or mood, and I adjust based on what each pet needs. I’m especially comfortable with senior pets and pets who need a calm, gentle approach. I can also help reinforce basic routines like feeding schedules, leash manners, and calm behavior. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved.

Kevin is someone I’d genuinely trust with my dog. He’s patient, kind, and really pays attention to the little things — whether a dog seems anxious, tired, hungry, or just needs some extra comfort. He has cared for dogs for many years, and you can tell he really understands them. I’d feel completely comfortable knowing my pet was safe, cared for, and treated with love while with him.
