Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog and Cat Dad - Loves All Animals
My wife and I currently have 3 large dogs and 1 cat, I’m great at handling multiple dogs on walks! I’ve cared for animals who needed daily medication and extra attention, adopted and raised a pregnant cat providing care to her and her kittens until they could be adopted, and have provided palliative care for senior dogs and cats. I’ve always loved animals; I have owned everything from frogs to finches, I studied biology at university, and I volunteered at wildlife rescue centers for years. One of my favorite experiences was helping several abandoned raccoon kits by providing feedings and keeping their space clean and quiet. Helped with keeping animals calm while the vet performed diagnostics.

Ratings and reviews
Philip is a natural with animals of all shapes and sizes, and he has taken great care of my 2 poodles multiple times. Between managing his own household of three large dogs and a cat, and his 11 years of dedicated experience with his leopard gecko, he has a proven track record of long-term commitment and reliable care. He is diligent about following directions and makes safety his top priority. He remains calm under pressure and treats every animal with respect. I highly recommend him for any pet sitting or walking needs!
"I’ve known Philip L. for years, and there is no one I trust more with my pets. His background at the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley speaks volumes about his expertise—he has extensive experience caring for and rehabilitating a vast range of animals, so he knows how to handle any situation with a calm, expert hand. At home, he manages a full house with three dogs and a cat, so he’s a pro at balancing different personalities and needs. Philip is responsible and detail-oriented, treating every pet like a member of his own family. He is a friendly and kind person who genuinely loves animals, and any pet owner would be lucky to have him looking after their furry friends!"

Philip has been absolutely amazing with my pets. He has three dogs and a cat, so he truly understands both dogs and cats. He took wonderful care of my three cats while I was away, spending quality time with them, playing with them, and keeping me updated with pictures that gave me total peace of mind. When his wife comes along, it’s an added bonus — she is just as lovely, caring, and attentive. They are both happy to stay as long as it takes to make sure everything is done right. The litter boxes were kept spotless. I couldn’t ask for more trustworthy, kind, and thoughtful pet sitters and would recommend them without hesitation.
