Highlights
Pet care experience
Easy Going care for your animals :)
Since I was 10 I’ve taken care of the pets in my family. Bunnies, dogs, cats, fish, gerbils and mice. I’ve given baths, taken dogs on runs, cuddled with kittens, played with bunnies. I’ve had to give medication to animals before. I’m quite active (trail runner) and really open to anything. I work from home so my schedule is flexible.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’ve grown up with animals all my life - so I suppose at this point it is just second nature to be around them. I make sure not to leave often, especially in the first 48 hours, so that I can help keep your pets relax as you leave. I try to spend a lot of intentional time with them up front so they get to know me and trust me. I once had to walk a dog 5 times between 10pm and 2am because it was nervous, but by the next day we were best friends. It just takes time and patience.
Ratings and reviews
Awesome sitter. Dogs are happy and Reid communicated quickly and was very flexible with some last minute changes
Due to last minute travel changes we had to scramble to find dog care during Christmas week. Reid was very accommodating to our last minute request and even made time to meet us and the dogs ahead of time to ensure compatibility. During our absence, Reid was super responsive and communicative, sending us daily updates and several photos. It was significant relief to know our dogs were taken care of.
Reid was great! he helped my dog, Hercules, relax by providing long walks. every picture he sent my, he looked happy as can be!
Our boy Cashew is still in the thicket of big-dog adolescence, and at 70lbs it can feel like steadying a runaway train, but Reid has been beyond wonderful with Cashew since the start! Reid is compassionate with our boy without letting him get away with unsafe behaviors, and now that I’m working 12hr days, I can trust that my boy will be exercised, exhausted, and excited to sleep until I’m back home. Choosing someone to bring into your home, while you’re not there, to temporarily *take your dog* is an undeniably stressful decision. Reid has made that process effortless, putting my entire family at ease, and I cannot recommend his services enough!
Reid was fantastic throughout the stay - he communicated a lot which was great. He did an awesome job and Bany our frenchie seemed to really like him and was in great spirits when we got home from our trip. Highly recommend Reid and will be customers of his again next time we're out of town.
Reid took amazing care of Aiko tending to her every need and introducing her to new and fun situations and activities. She’s the same happy girl I left only with more confidence and I’m so grateful for the time and love he gave her. He also housesat for me in Seeley Lake, over an hour away from his home. I know that was a huge ask and Reid actually thanked me for letting him stay here! In a nutshell, Reid is a great guy who took excellent care of both my home and my best buddy and I couldn’t recommend him more highly!

Schedule
I work remote from home as a video editor and I get to decide my own schedule and hours everyday. That means I get to prioritize your pet or home first!
