Pet care experience
The best people have tails
I have been surrounded by dogs and cats dogs since I was a child and I've never known a year without tailed family. I connected with them, I learned how to communicate without words, using body language alone. I've come to believe all mammals are far more alike than we realize, with inner lives and emotions, trust and love. Over the many years I've looked after my own and the pets of my friends and extended family. I'm the one they called.

From very large dogs to little kitties, I have no preconditions. I have a few years experience going way back delivering subcutaneous injections to my (mom's) westie. (She was suppossed to be my dog! )
Ratings and reviews
Patrick was fantastic! He was so engaged with my puppy Cali and I came home to a very happy pup. He had great suggestions as well which is always appreciated when you have a new pup! I definitely would recommend Patrick for all pet owners!
Patrick was great! Excellent communication! Both super responsive and terrific at sending photos and updates. We especially appreciate his athleticism as we have two extremely active pups. They are used to taking long walks and Patrick was willing to take them on their favorite hike. We felt so comfortable leaving our dogs with Patrick and look forward to having him back again!
Patrick has housessat for my GS-border collie mix and Maltese, and he’s always excellent, detail-oriented, communicative, and courteous. I feel completely at ease that my babies are in excellent hands with him. Highly recommend!
Patrick took great care of our pups while we were on vacation for 11 days. We received lots of detailed updates, pics and videos during our trip which helped put our minds at ease knowing they were safe and happy. Even though we told Patrick he can come and go as he pleases, Patrick confirmed he rarely leaves the house as the dogs are his priority when he dog sits. We greatly appreciated knowing they wouldn’t be home alone for hours at a time. Thanks again, Patrick!
Patrick was wonderful with our pups! Not only did he take great care of them, but he also went the extra mile by brushing them out. he genuinely cared for our dogs and treated them like his own. He left our home spotless, refreshed their water bowl. It’s clear he takes pride in what he does, and we’d happily trust him with our pups again!
Patrick stayed with our pup for an extended stay and we feel very fortunate to have found him. We met twice before our trip and Patrick made us feel very comfortable and our dog immediately took to him. Everything went smoothly and we highly recommend Patrick.

- It's important to know if there are any triggers that frighten or upset... Do your dogs prefer humans to other dogs? Do your dogs take issue with a quick rinse if a trip to dog beach is requested?
