Pete is wonderful and an excellent pet sitter! He is very kind, caring, and experienced with all kinds of animals. He took great care of my dog Luna, and it is clear he really loves dogs and animals. Very cool to know he took care of endangered species at the Bronx Zoo. And he currently works as a veterinary technician. I would/will gladly hire him again without any hesitation. Thank you, Pete!

Pete took great care of our two cats and provided photo updates during each visit. We left our kitties in good hands!

Safety, trust & environment

I have extensive training in the veterinary field. Having worked in the ICU, I’ve seen just about every kind of emergency and I’m well prepared for just about anything. I have to follow strict medical procedures and schedules, and I’m no different with my own pets and will be with yours.

Information Pete S. would like to know about your pet

Having spent the better part of the last decade as a veterinary professional, I’ve been exposed to many special needs and requirements. I am trained to give orally medicine as well as injectable. I’m also veterinary CPR certified.

A typical day

Being a former zookeeper, enrichment was a huge part of keeping the animals physically and mentally active. I like to keep their bodies moving and their minds sharp with games and toys that are challenging and enjoyable.
