Information Robin S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog(s) has any support needs or behaviors that are worth noting; the more I know, the more I can help our time together be something to woof about!

A typical day

I love to help your animals participate in holistically stimulating activities, as they are willing and able: be it hiking, practicing their commands and tricks, socializing with other dogs through walks with my dog Lola in tow and/or trips to the dog park, and being naptime cuddle buddies if they get anxious resting alone.

Pet care experience

Hi, fellow pet parents! I work in education and content creation with my Jack Russel/Shih Tzu cuddlebug Lola at my side. I have had dogs from a young age and have experience petsitting for nearly 20 years. While I have my one dog, I also live with 2 cats and have lived on-and-off with different combos of furbabies for many years. My petsitting experience includes dog walking, feeding, housesitting while taking care of dogs and cats, and caring for dogs of all ages from puppy to old soul. I can't wait to meet your fur babies and give them FUN, love, and care!

Robin was extremely helpful & kind! He showed genuine care for our cats and made sure to update us as often as he could. I would definitely book with him again ☺️

Robin is extremely responsible and great with dogs! I have personally been a pet sitter for over 20 years and each time I cannot take on a job Robin has been able to step in and assist families and their fur babies. He makes sure to be on time and do exactly what the owner asks of him and always takes the time to play with the dogs and other animals he has cared for. He is one of the most trustworthy people you will ever meet and always honest. He is someone you can depend on to give pets the love and care they deserve and then some.

My dog and Robin's dog are best friends and he loves mine as much as he loves his own! He always makes sure his dog has the best treats, toys, and haircuts and has provided mine with many great presents as well as lots of love. I've been friends with him for over twenty years and every pet he's had, from dogs to lizards, has been very well cared for. I wouldn't hesitate at all to trust him with any of my pets and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a sitter or walker!
