Information Philip D. would like to know about your pet

I can work with just about any type of pet and any personality. Whether your pet is super energetic, shy, anxious, or just likes doing their own thing, I'm happy to adjust to what makes them feel comfortable. I'm very calm and patient, and I feel like animals usually warm up to me pretty quickly and feel safe around me. If there's anything special I should know about your pet, just let me know before the booking. That could be things like their routine, medications, allergies, favorite toys or treats, things they don't like, or anything that helps them feel more comfortable. I want to make sure I care for them the way you're used to and give them the best experience possible while you're away

A typical day

A typical day with me starts by greeting all the pets and making sure they have fresh food and water and everything they need to be comfortable. I love spending time with pets, whether that's playing with their favorite toys, going outside, or just hanging out with them. If there's a fenced backyard, I'm always happy to spend time outside playing fetch, running around, or letting them get their energy out. I also know every pet is different, so I pay attention to what they enjoy and what makes them feel comfortable. If they're more laid back, I'm just as happy to sit with them, give them pets, cuddle if they like it, or keep them company. I'll make sure they get plenty of attention, love, and care while you're away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, happy, and cared for, and I'll treat them like they're my own.

All animals deserve love and grace

Pet care experience

I've been caring for animals for most of my life and have experience looking after dogs, cats, and even lizards for friends, family, and neighbors. Growing up in South Carolina, I was always surrounded by animals and family pets, which helped build my love and understanding of them from a young age. I'm confident caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I have a calm, patient nature, and I believe animals can sense that and tend to feel comfortable around me. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or shy and needs a little extra patience, I'm happy to meet them where they're at and give them the care they deserve. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. My goal is to give both you and your pet peace of mind by providing dependable, attentive care.

Philip is an animal lover for sure. I have yet to see an animal he didn't like or more importantly an animal that didn't like him. He's a fun loving, caring pet caregiver who will go above a beyond to make your pet happy, and safe. I'd have no concerns with Philip taking care of your furry family members.

Philip loves dogs…. He is very diligent and takes great care of them. Loves to play with the dogs and makes them feel safe and secure. He understands what’s expected from him and follows up on the tasks assigned so the pets are well taken care off. Highly recommended.
