Information Philip F. would like to know about your pet

Any allergies would be good so that if I take them out and about they are not at risk for being exposed to those allergens. Also knowing their temperament is nice to know beforehand.

A typical day

I like to get the pets I watch up and active. We can go for a walk or run if the pet is not at risk and we can go to the dog park or even play in the backyard. It also fun to teach them tricks.

Pet care experience

Mostly looking to walk dogs as I throughly enjoy keeping active and helping our pet friends get their exercise in but also open to pet sitting once we’ve formed a bond and as long as my schedule permits it.

Philip was so good with my dog Frankie. He’s a pitbull and so some people don’t like him , but Philip was so good with Frankie! My dog LOVED Philip. He was so nice and sent me photos of my dog during their visit. I highly recommend Philip. He even took a toy from my dog when he tore it up so he didn’t swallow or choke on the pieces. 🙂🩵

Highly recommend Philip. He was reliable and good with communicating his visits to care for our cats on short notice when we had a family emergency. He made sure to follow directions and was willing to be a bit flexible on timing of his visits to align to some specific care needs. I'd definitely use him again.

"Philip is absolutely fantastic! My dog, Nikko , came back from the walk with a huge smile and clearly had a blast. Philip sent updates throughout the walk. I feel completely confident leaving my furry friend in his care and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch dog walker!"

We couldn’t be more pleased with the care our dogs received from Philip. From the moment we met him, we could tell he was a perfect fit for Max & Kody. He took the time to get to know our dogs' individual personalities, ensuring they felt comfortable and loved in our absence. Throughout the time we were away, Philip sent regular updates and photos, which reassured us that our dogs were in good hands. What truly stood out was the attention to detail. Philip followed all the instructions we’ve provided and even went above and beyond by cleaning up a trail of ants that was caused by leaving the dog’s food out when they didn’t finish. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs, which speaks volumes about the level of care they received. We would absolutely be booking Philip again in the future. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of our pups!
