Pet care experience

Safe, Comfortable and Spoiled 🐾

Pets have always been a huge part of my life, and I understand how difficult it can be to leave them in someone else’s care. I know how much trust it takes to leave a pet behind, and I understand the level of care, attention, and communication that owners expect because I’ve felt that same worry myself. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, including senior dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, and support with their routines. I’ve also had experience with dog training at different stages of life, from young puppies learning the basics to older dogs who need help reinforcing good habits. Much of my experience has also come through rescue dogs, which has taught me that every dog has their own personality, history, comfort level, and needs. Some pets need lots of exercise and stimulation, while others are happiest with a quiet routine, some cuddles, and a comfortable place to relax. My approach is to treat every pet as an individual and, most importantly, as part of the family. I’m happy to follow their normal routines, provide plenty of attention and affection, and give owners regular updates so they can enjoy their time away knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Myles, but you can call him Smitski, is the best pet caregiver on this app. He has his own cat, and has grown up and cared for dogs his entire life. He is absolutely amazing with our rescue dogs, Penelope and Little. Penelope can be shy and sensitive to strangers but she loves when Smitski comes around, and Little has been an escape artist so he ALWAYS keeps a close eye on her especially. He’s very responsible, and organized. You never have to worry about your pets when Smitski is on the job, you won’t find a better guy.

I've had the opportunity to see firsthand how much Myles genuinely cares about animals, and I can't think of anyone I'd trust more to care for a pet. He has an incredible compassion for animals and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. What stands out most is his dedication and patience. Whether it's advocating for an animal's needs, investing the time to understand their unique personalities, or doing whatever it takes to ensure they're happy and healthy, Myles approaches every animal with the same level of care and commitment. He also has extensive experience working with rescue dogs, which requires a special kind of patience, empathy, and understanding. He has a remarkable ability to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

Myles is a true animal lover through and through. He has a natural way with dogs and genuinely loves all pets, from his own cat to the soul dogs he’s loved over the years. He’s patient, reliable, and treats every animal like family. I’d trust him with any pet, knowing they’d be safe, loved, and well cared for.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so walks, playtime, and getting outside are already a regular part of my day. I also work from home regularly, which gives me flexibility to provide plenty of company and attention throughout the day. Outside of work, I enjoy keeping a fairly relaxed routine and spending time at home. I’m happy to make time for feeding, walks, play, cuddles, and whatever routine helps your pet feel comfortable and settled. I understand that consistency is important, especially when a pet is staying somewhere unfamiliar. My goal is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible while making sure they get plenty of love and attention along the way.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I want every owner to feel confident that their pet is staying in a safe, secure, and loving environment while they’re away. Our home has a fully fenced-in backyard that has been secured with pets in mind, giving dogs a safe space to get outside, play, and enjoy some fresh air without the worry of them wandering off. I’m also mindful of introductions and making sure every pet feels comfortable in their surroundings. We have a quiet, friendly cat who is very comfortable around dogs and has experience sharing her space with them. She tends to keep to herself and gives visiting pets plenty of room, which helps create a calm environment for everyone. Most importantly, I understand that trust is earned. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines, dietary instructions, medication schedules, and any specific care requirements, while keeping you updated so you always know how your pet is doing.
