Dogs, tropical birds & chinchillas!

Pet care experience

I first got into pet sitting when I started watching a friend's dog in college for weeks at a time. The dog was really friendly and well trained so it was a great experience. That lead to my second client, a couple with a variety of animals including dogs, tropical fish, birds, hedgehogs and chinchillas! Several of these pets had special diets which taught me how to tailor my care to each specific pet. I also have experience with caring for dogs coming out of surgery, and assisting them through times of limited mobility. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks, and playing with them (if they are up for it). I believe every pet deserves personalized care and attention. I am working from home M-F so I’m available and flexible most of the time. I am available to spend time with the pet as I work and give them more attention after logging off for the day. Cleanliness is something I always strive for. My goal is to have pet owners return to a nice clean home with relaxed pets every single time.

Morris was super helpful I'm sitting on a short notice. He took good care of my pups and I'll definitely consider his services again. Thank you!

Morris & Marlin got along very well. Marlin got all tuckered out from his walk which is always the goal!

Morris was kindly able to take my 3 cats at a one day notice, and took great care of them!

Information Morris M. would like to know about your pet

any interesting habits, special diets, or things that might make them upset or anxious. Their sleeping habits are also something I like to discuss before hand. I like to make sure they can sleep soundly through the night.

A typical day

For dogs being dropped off, they will be walked around several of reston's nature trails along side of several other dog walkers. I live about a mile away from a park for dogs that like extra running.

I’m currently working from home M-F and have free time on the weekends. I’m able to house sit or board dogs as I login to work. It has been great for dogs that have a set routine.
