Flexible Sitter, Active and Loving!

Pet care experience

I grew up on Bainbridge Island with a big family with even more pets. I learned from an early age how to care for and love all animals. Growing up I also helped out families around our neighborhood with dog walks and pet sitting. Right now I have no dog or pets of my own and would love to share my time with yours! I’m comfortable with all breeds, ages and sizes. I know it’s hard leaving your pet and I’m here to offer peace of mind that your animals are in the caring hands of someone who will treat them with the love and respect they deserve. Whether you’re heading on a trip, have a busy day ahead of you or just need some help with your pet, I’m here to make your pet care experience a walk in the park.

Patrick is the consummate ‘animal person’. I have known him for over 20 years, and throughout that time he has always cared for pets. Patrick is one of the those people who brightens every time he sees a pet and takes genuine pleasure in his connection with them. He is acutely aware of the outward signs of wellbeing in an animal, and responds accordingly. He finds palpable joy in his time with four-legged friends and this elicits joy in them as well. I would unwaveringly trust Patrick to care for my pets, knowing that when I am away they are in truly capable hands.

Patrick is a wonderful person and so great with our animals. He is patient and kind. That's why I'm confident leaving him with my pets when I go out of town. I have a senior dog named Pepper (13 years old). She likes to go for short walks and is very slow in her old age. He is patient in giving her walks and attention, she loves him! On top of that, I have two cats that Patrick also watches when I'm out of town - a young cat named Dice (two years) and a senior cat named Cali (15 years). He's great with them since Cali needs extra special care because she has arthritis. She pretty much needs to be carried around the house now, which can require a lot of work. But he also makes enough time for Dice who is full of energy and loves to play! I'm happy to know Patrick and have him as my housesitter when I'm out of town because all of my pets love him and I know they are in good hands. Especially my senior animals that need that extra T.L.C and support. Highly recommend him for any pet needs dogs or cats!

I have known Patrick for many years and the kindness and care he has exhibited to the animals in his life has been exceptional. He has the amazing ability to anticipate and animal’s needs and make them feel comfortable and cared for. I would trust Patrick with my two dogs any time.

We heard about Patrick through a friend and he watched our two cats during a long weekend away. We were so grateful to have them in such good hands! Our cats are indoor and used to a lot of attention, so it was important we had someone care for them beyond the usual feeding and cleaning the litter box. Patrick visited three times a day and took extra time to play and cuddle with them and have them sleep on his lap. We really appreciated how he sent us updates and photos/videos throughout the weekend; it put us at ease and made our time away much more enjoyable. We'd definitely recommend Patrick and are looking forward to using him again on our next trip away!

A typical day

I try to best utilize the neighborhood I'm working in. If there are parks or open spaces near by I like to take advantage. Safety is my top priority and in my pack I bring water, a Frisbee and tennis balls as well.

I currently work at the University of Washington and live just a mile away in Wallingford. My schedule is very flexible as I have a hybrid work environment and a vehicle as well. I live a very active lifestyle so pet care is a natural fit. I enjoy long walks and exploring the city. I would love to bring your pet along for some fun and adventure!
