Highlights
Pet care experience
Care, Cleanliness and Communication
Greetings! I'm Patrick. I've done a bunch of pet and house sitting on another platform, as well as for family, friends and acquaintances, besides having my own pets or sharing them with past partners. I used to practice massage therapy and reiki. I bring a similar intention to handling pets that I brought to responding to clients needs.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
What an honor it is to care for people's homes and pets! I feel excited to transition my pet and house-sitting to this platform. Thanks for your consideration. I enjoy caring for pets and homes. I appreciate the trust-building process, staying accountable and growing as a person, all which these experiences foster. I intend to be a respectful well-communicating sitter and to provide a safe fun atmosphere for your pets. I appreciate receiving questions and feedback during a video chat or in person meet and greet where we get to know each other.
Ratings and reviews
Patrick did a great job pet sitting our dog Pema! She was happy and in great spirits when we reunited. He updated us regularly and was in great communication. He also left our house cleaner than we left and our plants happier too! Highly recommend Patrick to take care of your pet or house. A+++. Our favorite pet sitter ever!!
Patrick did a fantastic job watching my home and Nemo! He was punctual, communicative, and sent plenty of updates and pictures, which I really appreciated. I am especially grateful that he was able to extend his stay by a day when my flight was cancelled. I highly recommend Patrick and would absolutely have him sit for me again.
Patrick did a great job with my pup, Olivia, while staying here for a couple of weeks. He's very responsible, conscientious, proactive, and all went well. My trip got extended and so I had to find another sitter to continue on and Patrick was very helpful getting the new sitter up to speed.
Patrick recently watched our dog Gracie and was really thoughtful and thorough from the start. He agreed to FaceTime before watching Gracie and we could tell right away that he was caring towards animals. He is extremely kind and organized and did a really wonderful job caring for Gracie. He kept in close contact while we were away. He even offered to water the plants over the weekend without our asking. He was also a very warm person and great to talk to!
Patrick is a thoughtful, diligent and responsible pet caregiver. He has cared for our 2 dogs (1 old, 1 younger and crazy), 2 bunnies, 1 troubled cat and 3 goats. He handled all the craziness and even kept our plants thriving. I definitely recommend him as an excellent companion for your animals!

Schedule
I'd like to do part-time pet care in the East Bay, with some availability to housesit for longer sits around the full Bay Area. I can be more spontaneous for pet care near Oakland depending upon the timing. For longer resident sits please try to give me a week or two notice with a request. I'll see what works. Thanks!
