Life is better with animals!
Pet care experience
I have dog/cat/house sat for quite a few of my friends, one of them even passed my info on to their neighbor so I could sit for them! I love getting to know new pets and get out my dog/cat envy by caring for them! I currently live in a space that does not allow dogs, or else I would own one myself. I am an active person, so walking or jogging with your dog will be something I look forward to. Previous clients have entrusted me to ensure their pets took edible medicines, and followed very particular diet routines. I would love to meet you and your animals!
Reviews
Ruth had a great time with Owen while we were out of town! He took great care of her and the house and was great at communicating with us! We won’t hesitate to have him house and dog sit again.
Owen was a fantastic dog sitter! He took such good care of our two pups, as if they were his own. He was excellent at communicating with us while we were away and sent pics and videos of our dogs on walks and having fun and kept us updated. This is the first time we've left our dogs with someone who wasn't family so a big step for us but he took great care of both our dogs and our puppy Forrest seemed to instantly connect with him when he came to meet them prior to dog sitting for us. It was a bit easier being away for several days knowing they were in good hands. We hope to have Owen as our dogsitter for our next summer trips!
Owen was the perfect sitter for our two kiddos!!! He treated our pups with the same care we do. We will definitely be calling Owen back. Thank you Owen The house was just how we left it and our pups were happy campers.
Owen watched our rescue boxer/pitt for three days/two nights in our home and it went very well. We searched for the right house/dog sitter for two years and felt confident moving forward with Owen. He did not disappoint. Our little pittie was well taken care of and Owen did not shy away from or hesitate to take our concerns and requirements seriously. We live in a rural environment and our dog has some variable behavioral issues that require an attentive and patient sitter. Owen was also extremely respectful of our home. We came home to clean dishes and a calm dog. Thank you, Owen

I make sure to always be present with the animals I watch even if I am there for just a check in. Animals get lonely and scared just like humans do if they are alone for a while, so I like to provide all the comfort I can. Extremely fond of taking as many opportunities as I can during the day to get some good pets and scritches in.
Information Owen P. would like to know about your pet
I like to know if they have any eccentricities or behaviors that are out of the norm. Will they be shy about eating their food around someone new? Do they have separation anxiety? What is a normal cadence for them to go outside? What behaviors are you trying to reinforce with them? All things we can discuss when I meet your pets.
A typical day
I enjoy playing tug of war with dogs and having them fetch, as well as going on walks/jogs. With that, I am also attentive to their energy level and make sure to not do too strenuous of activities if they are not up for it.
