Working professional who loves pets

Pet care experience

I moved here from Long Island in December 2021 where I was a pet sitter for almost a decade having many repeat and satisfied customers. I've cared for dogs of all ages and sizes from a 7lb Yorkie puppy to a 180lb senior St.Bernard. I love cats too! Also have farm experience taking care of chickens, goats & cows.

Safety, trust & environment

I have the utmost respect for my clients home & property and the safety of their pets is paramount. I will give your pet the attention it needs.

Information Michael R. would like to know about your pet

Age and general health. If they're aggressive towards people, wildlife and other dogs they see in the street, yards or houses Petting likes and dislikes. Fears and phobias. If yard is fully fenced in. Feeding schedule and medication info. (if applicable)

A typical day

I typically go by what owners and pets are comfortable with. I'm happy to take for walks but would only stay on and around the block unless otherwise instructed. So I do not take pets into woods, trails or parks without owners instructing to do so. I do not walk dogs in thunderstorms but will let them out into yard. I love playing fetch in securely fenced in yards, giving lots of belly rubs, playing tug of war (if applicable). I like to sing to dogs, often taking popular & classic songs and replacing lyrics with pets name.

My availability is currently very limited. I work full time as evening supervisor for Hannifords deli so I cannot accommodate visits between 12-830pm and I already have a weekly dog I walk mon-wed at 11am. I am willing to take on sits that can work around this schedule.
