Responsible, experienced pet care.

Pet care experience

Growing up, we always had two dogs in the house - A couple who were pretty high maintenance! I was usually the member of our family to provide walks and play. Family and family friends would rely on me to house and pet sit while they were on vacation. My girlfriend worked as a vet's assistant for a while and shared a lot of tips.

Patrick has cared for our dogs for years! He is dependable and dogs love his calm, gentle manner. He’ll even send us pictures of the pups when we’re away! 🐶🥰

I'm currently working full-time and taking classes toward a master's degree but doing all of that remotely. I can stay with your pet while you run daytime errands and provide walks before or after work, or during my lunch breaks. I'm also available for overnights/housesitting and occasional weekend help. Ideally, we can meet and set up a regular schedule. Please reach out as my availability may be changing soon so that I can offer more time.
