Pet care experience

The grooviest sitter, I pawmise

Hello hello humans and woof woof (meow meow) furry ones! I recently moved back to Vandergrift after living in Chicago for over seven years. I was able to share approximately 10 years of my life with furry family members of my own, including beagles, a husky, Boston terriers, and a pit bull but for the past few years I have not been able to. At this time, I provide care to my friends furry loved ones whenever they are in need of assistance and a few would gladly paw a letter of recommendation (the fur balls, not the humans of course)! I am frequently caught by others waving to passing by dogs or cats hanging out in windows. Everyone and everything appreciates a smile and wave hello! I enjoy taking dogs for walks and getting them much needed exercise including jogging, running, favorite activities, beach play, etc., and providing them with some intimate social interaction before or afterwards if wanted or needed. I enjoy assisting with teeth brushing and ear cleaning. I would enjoy assisting with teaching or training behaviors and potty training although I have no formal training or education in these besides my own personal knowledge. I enjoy brushing, cuddling, and understanding any other special needs that makes them unique. All of this applies to cats, too! I am open to questions or comments about any wants or needs that are a vital part of your dog or cats care that I may have missed so please feel free to ask or start a discussion about something!

Lyle is an angel! My cats just follow him around the apartment and adore him. He also was super kind and diligent about cleaning up a litter box snafu on my part! Cannot recommend highly enough

Lyle was amazing with my cats! He was professional, communicative, and the kittens loved him. I have an elderly cat who need special medication and Lyle took excellent care of her. 10/10!!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I have a full-time job that is work from home so am limited with hours available for walks and drop in’s. Send me a message and we can figure it out!

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I limit the number of items available for curiosity and fill the space with items they will find comforting and soothing. Oh, damn and playful! Can’t forget about playful :)

A typical day

We will go on walks with lots of trees and grassy areas to enjoy as much as possible. We will play your favorite activities, but if I get to choose then running, catch, and frisbee are sure to make the list.

Dogs of all breeds make the world a better place so I welcome them all! A few things I would like to know before we get to know each other include likes, dislikes, what cheers them up, what puts them down, health concerns, behavioral concerns, favorite itching spot, favorite place to relax, are they okay with touch, and more as we bark at each other.
