Have the doctor care for your pet!

Pet care experience

I am a dog lover and grew up on a farm around many animals. We had two Doberman dogs outdoors, a Maltese and a Pomeranian that mainly stayed indoors. I do have a full time job, but since I love animals I would love to care for yours when time can permit. ☺ We live in a great community which is safe and your pet would be able to get lots of exercise or TLC when in my home! I am Healthcare trained. My wife and children are great with dogs. If your pet is not shy or loves attention this is the place for you.

Was concerned about leaving town until I met Rakesh and his wonderful family. The updates and photos he sent me I knew everything was okay and my furbaby was in the best of care. I recommend using and is my first choice of sitters by far. Thank you again for the love you showed my puppy.

Thanks so much to Rakesh and his wonderful dog-watching family! Shoebutton and Fiddlesticks had a great time with them while we enjoyed a day biking the Virginia Creeper Trail. We will definitely be repeat customers the next time we head to Abingdon!

In addition to two dogs, we have fish and birds. Rakesh took care of them all. Birds throw seeds outside their cages - they are messy. Before we left on our trip vacuum broke. Rakesh brought his over and vacuumed the house. Who does that. You won’t find a better sitter for your pets and home!

Rakesh was great with my pup and started in contact with updates, photos and any concerns. Will definitely use again!

Information Rakesh P. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your pet has any food allergies, medical problems, separation anxiety or weather anxiety as pets require more attention and close observation. I also would like to know if your pet is potty trained as I have cared for many puppies and older dogs with incontinence.

A typical day

I live in a great community that is pet friendly. I like when pets come with their own toys since this brings them comfort and some security.
