I've known Max since around 2005. My relationship with Max is unique, as not only were we neighbors, but I've been the owner of a pet sitting business, Julie's Puppy Love, in Cary, IL, since 2003. Like many good neighbors, Max began by helping us out with walks for our elderly dog when we knew we would be delayed getting home from work. His interaction with our pets was wonderful, so we began using him more frequently for our dog and 2 cats, including when we were on vacation. He has done both; scheduled visits to walk our dog, and also, when we had to travel for longer periods of time, as a house/pet sitter. He has experience in administering medication to both dogs and cats. When he turned 18, Max began working for me part time as a pet sitter during my busiest times of the year; summer and spring break. I was very impressed at his work ethic. Always on time and never missed a scheduled visit. I consider him to be extremely trust worthy and reliable. Even though he no longer lives in the suburbs, he still has a key to our home, and continues to help us out when he's available. I would be happy to answer any questions regarding Max's qualifications.
