Former dog dad... forever dog lover

Pet care experience

From puppy zoomies to senior snuggles, I’ve seen (and loved) it all. I’ve raised dogs of my own and been the go-to sitter for family and friends for years. Reliable, active, patient, and always ready for belly rubs or a good game of fetch. Based in a pet-loving neighborhood full of trails and parks—tail wags are guaranteed. 🐾

Fantastic!! Roy was wonderful with our sensitive and anxious dog. She was right at ease with Roy and ate, slept, and adjusted very well! She really never eats when we leave her within the first few days. But she did great with Roy. Roy communicated very well with pictures and timely updates about our dog. Thank you Roy!! We’ll be back!

I’ve known Roy for years and he’s helped take care of my dogs and cat many times! Rebel loves Roy and always is so happy to see him! I would trust him with my fur kids and my house any time!

Roy has cared for my dog Scout several times and he's been great. I really appreciate that Roy always sends lots of pictures to let me know my dog is doing well. Roy takes Scout on lots of walks and plays with him, so I always come home to a happy doggo. Scout took to Roy really quickly and has always seemed very comfortable with him. Also, when Roy has stayed at my house, he left the house clean and took good care of everything.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, my top priority is keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walks, medication (if needed), and of course, plenty of playtime and cuddles. In your home, I respect your space and your pet’s comfort zones, making sure they feel secure while you're away. If they're with me, they get a cozy, pet-friendly environment, lots of attention, and access to nearby parks and trails for daily adventures. Every pet is treated like family—because that’s what they are.

Information Roy T. would like to know about your pet

Before watching any pet, I like to know their routine, personality, and any special needs. Do they have quirks, anxieties, or triggers? Are they crate-trained, leash-reactive, or on a strict diet or medication? I also ask about their energy level, favorite activities, and how they do with kids or other animals. The more I know up front, the better I can make them feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away.

A typical day

From fetch marathons to trail walks, every day is an adventure! I love tailoring playtime to each pet’s personality—whether that means chasing squeaky toys, playing tug-of-war, or just soaking up the sun in the yard. For pups who love to explore, we’ll hit the local parks and trails for sniff-filled strolls. And for the cuddle bugs? Expect lots of belly rubs, couch snuggles, and relaxing downtime. My daughter also loves joining in on the fun (and pets love her gentle energy!). Every day with me is filled with love, attention, and tail-wagging fun. 🐾

Like so many others, I was recently laid off—and around the same time, I lost the coolest dog anyone could ask for. With more time on my hands and a lot of love still to give, I decided to lean into what I’ve always been great at: caring for animals. I’ve always been the go-to sitter for friends and family, and now I’m offering that same love and reliability to others. My daughter is my little sidekick and loves helping out with walks, belly rubs, and all things furry. For both of us, pet care isn’t just a task—it’s a bright spot in our day and something we truly enjoy.
