Fur babies are my life!

Pet care experience

I must start this by saying if I am Pet/House sitting this does include walks and drop ins as needed/requested. I am 55 and I grew up with dogs, always had multiple dogs and/or cats since. No dog is too big or too small, love them all :) I am retired with 3 fur babies at home, I want to take care of yours like they are my own. I am dog CPR certified. I will feed, walk, wrestle (if desired), give meds, chase and throw ball with all the hair balls. I will even give your furries a good shampoo, brushing if they are not aggressive to a hose or myself. (I regularly use my Dremel to trim dog nails) I can come for a short visit or stay the night. I DO NOT keep your pets at my place, only yours. I can provide local references if desired or meet you in person beforehand. **All the prices listed were preset, let's talk to your needs and discuss** Discounts for repeats and some others depending on location and services requested.

Neal was amazing taking care of our kids. The picture updates were plentiful and he took the well being of our animals to heart. We will definitely be reaching out to Neal when we have future pet sitting needs. Thank you and we would highly recommend Neal if you need someone who is thoughtful, thorough, and absolutely loves animals. Thanks

First time leaving my 2yr old Frenchie with a stranger. But Neil was fantastic and did not stay a stranger for more than a few minutes, He stayed with Zoey for three days, sent pictures and updates so I was completely relaxed and comfortable while I was away. I highly recommend Neal and wouldn't want to use anyone else.

Neal is great!! He took care of my Berner who cut her foot minutes before we left our house for our trip. He took care of our girl Bella who was recovering from Giardia. He gives meds, does anything we ask. We are so lucky to have him. We don't worry when he is here with our pups. We absolutely recommend him! Helen and Larry Buttress and Bella and Emma

We were so lucky to find Neal to house and pet sit for us recently. He did an outstanding job and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. He loves animals, that's the first thing we noticed....our pets took right to him. He was very detail oriented as to how our animal routine goes. When you have as many "children" as we do it can get complicated, especially when there are seniors and medications to be given and cats and dogs....it can be a bit much ! Neal handled it all, no problem. In fact he excelled ! He brought special treats for the dogs and allowed the cat to monopolize his lap. It also was nice that he sent pictures to show how everyone was doing. Also, he responds promptly to queries on the business side of things. We will happily engage him for any further house or pet care needs we have in the future. He is the best !

My pets are my babies, your pets will be my babies while in my care. I can accommodate most of your pet needs, even some basic training if requested. I do not do pet boarding or sitting in my home...I have my fur babies. If I am Pet/House sitting this does include walks and drop ins as needed/requested.

Information Neal Z. would like to know about your pet

I need to know any concerns I should have about your dog/cat: are they aggressive to people, other animals, will they try yanking my shoulder off when they see a bunny, will they jump your wall, do they need meds, are they scared of anything, do they get separation anxiety, eat anything and everything....no surprises please.

A typical day

My plan is to treat your pups (or cats) as my own. If they like walks then we will walk, if they cuddle then it's a yes for me, watching football and belly rubs are a plus. Feeding, lot's o treats and spoiling of course. Medications on request. Brushing, nails and even a bath via hose bib and shampoo upon request. Ask and I can most likely accommodate, I can't list all possibilities here.
