Safety, trust & environment

The best way to make sure your pets feel safe, trusting, and comfortable is for me to continue on the daily routine they tend to follow. I'm very familiar with having to separate animals in different rooms, gates, stairs, feeding schedules and walking times. The best way I can give the utmost care for your companion is if you tell me exactly what you'd appreciate in terms of caretaking from me and I will make sure I do it exactly how you'd like in a way that is comfortable for you and you pet!

Information Rory F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special restrictions, diets, needs, or requests ahead of time so I can do my best to match the energy of that specific canine/feline. The more information I have regarding your pet, the better for me !

A typical day

For dogs, I always want to have the most well-rounded walking experience. Lots of meandering to fill the sniffing quota (that's how they read the world), some high energy running, ball throwing, fetching, even swimming if that's favoured by the dog/pet parent. I'm super able to be flexible with your pets needs, as I myself am used to working with many dogs of different ages and sizes

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs (golden retrievers and a papillon) for 23 years, I love every dog I see, so dog care is definitely my thing. I am very accustomed to all types of dog behaviour, walking, feeding, giving medication, itchy paw care, and all other pet care associated with dogs. I'm a well seasoned dog caretaker and am very familiar with many types of challenges and hyper puppies.

I have had Rory look after my pets a few times - and he is fantastic! He lovingly cared for my dog Lhasa, and my 4 cats, and each time I returned home, I could tell the second I saw my animals that they had been very well cared for and loved. Rory is a special person - an animal whisperer in my opinion. He noticed an infection in one of my cat's ears long before I did. He's attentive and compassion towards the animals, and they know it, because they love him back. He's respectful, a great communicator, and leaves my place clean and peaceful. You can trust him fully to be responsible to you, your animals, and your home.

Rory is a kind, caring and considerate human being who genuinely loves animals and is also a great communicator (both with humans and animals). He really bonded with our cat and I'm sure Jinjaa was sad to see him go. Not only was our kitty well loved and cared for, our plants were thriving and our house was spotless when we returned. Rory is a reliable, safe and responsible pet and house sitter and I highly recommend him to look after your pet and home.
