Pet care experience

I have been dog and house sitting since 2003. I have experience with all breeds (and cats). I'm happy to care for other pets in the home. I love dog park adventures or an easy stroll through a park. I have a good eye for dogs in social settings. For overnight in home pet sits I do best with a written set of instructions. I am easy going and safety minded when animals are in my care. I have had animal companions most of my life. As of 2024, I have an indoor outdoor cat. I love a good lap dog, of any size. I can handle animals with medically specific needs as well. I have lots of glowing local references. My schedule is flexible during the day. I look forward to meeting you and your 4-legged family! My rates reflect the 15% cut that Rover takes, as well as the 15% in taxes that I pay in self employment taxes. P.S. My pronouns are they/them, and I identify as non-binary.

Oscar was very kind and communicative! I was feeling anxious about leaving our dog, and they were attentive to making sure our expectations were met.

Felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Oscar. They provided a lot of updates and photos. Will use them again!

This was my first time using Rover and Jean-Luc’s stay with Oscar was more than I could have hoped for! Frequent photo/video updates, special attention for Jean-Luc’s anxious nature and an all around “calm dog energy” all made for a wonderful experience and minimal worry while I was away. Would use Oscar again in a heartbeat!

Oscar was amazing with our anxious dog Beau. They were very kind and patient and were generous with their update photos. Will definitely be boarding with them again!

Information Oscar M. would like to know about your pet

I'll do best with a written set of instructions and information. Things I like to know beforehand are: how to soothe nervous animals, how you handle any behavioral concerns, how to lure your pet back if they're an escape artist, and any other essential details to fully care for your pet.

A typical day

For cats, we'll do whatever thier favorite thing is: cuddles on the couch, play, watching the birds, etc. For dogs, play time, exploring the yard, going up to the dog park (there's one very near my house in Hapeville), neighborhood strolls, and lots of attention.
