Meet Your Dog's New Friend

Pet care experience

As a dog-owner myself, I understand the stress of finding a responsible, caring and reliable dog sitter. Then, there are times when you have people stay at your place and that process can even be more taxing. You worry if a person will keep your place clean or have people over. I'm here to allay those fears. I've pet sat (both dogs and cats) in the past and not only take very good care of the animals, but take care of the house as well. My rule of thumb, when it comes to staying at someone's house is: Leave things the way you found them. If a bed was made before I came, you can rest assured that bed would be made. If there wasn't any garbage when I arrived, there would be no garbage when I left. You get the picture. If someone stayed at my house, I'd hope they would follow this "rule" as well. I've owned a dog for most of my life and love their companionship. Whether it's sitting on the couch or taking a walk, there's nothing like spending time with a dog. I love all types of dogs, but the bigger the dog, the better. You can put your mind to ease knowing your dog (and house) will be in good hands with me. Why I love dog sitting I've been a dog lover since the time I can remember. There's something about a dog and the bond you make with him/her that can't be matched with any other animal. As a child, my family owned two dogs, but I always managed their daily care (feeding, walking, etc). They lived full, happy lives...at least I'd like to think so. My experience administering medication Yes, I am perfectly comfortable administering medicine. Having done it before, I know what it takes to ensure the pup takes his/her medicine.

This dog-sitter failed to take good care of my two dogs. I am greatly disappointed.

Louie was great while I was away on my vacation. He met my dogs and I before I left town and everything went smoothly! I received picture updates of my dogs and was confident that they were in good hands while I was away. He checked in with me the day that he arrived and the day that he left. When I came home there wasn't a hair out of place and my dogs were happy. I'll definitely consider using him again in the future.

Louie was great. He sent lots of pictures and took good care of our cat and dog while we were on a cruise. We already have plans to have him sit again next month and are glad they'll be in good hands.

Louie was great. He sent me periodic photos and clearly loves dogs. Lola had a great time and he was great sitting at my apartment.

Information Louie M. would like to know about your pet

One of the most important things for me would be to know of any issues the dog might have (such as being skittish with strangers or going after kids). That way, I know what to expect and can act accordingly. I don't have any breed preferences, but size-wise: the bigger the better.
