Pet care experience

Experienced cat & dog caretaker

I have lifelong experience caring for animals, having grown up in a pet-friendly household. As a current dog owner (Dexter) and someone who regularly helps care for a cat, I am highly familiar with behaviors, routine needs and boundaries. Additionally, I am frequently trusted by family and friends to handle drop-in visits, stays, feeding schedules and daily walks for their pets. I pride myself on being reliable, punctual, and attentive to every animal's specific routine.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine to keep anxiety low while keeping your home secure. I am extremely respectful of your space and will strictly follow all house rules, locking up carefully after every visit or during overnight stays. I ensure your pet stays safe during walks by using secure leashes, keeping them away from unfamiliar dogs, and closely monitoring them.

We were a bit nervous to leave our dog because he can be incredibly annoying, anxious, and barks at absolutely everything. However, Rufus handled him amazingly well! He showed incredible patience, stayed completely calm, and managed to keep our pup relaxed and happy. Rufus is a truly wonderful, responsible pet sitter who can handle any challenge. We can not recommend him enough!

Rufus is an absolute lifesaver! Our dog and cat are absolute best friends and do everything together, and Rufus managed their joint routine perfectly. He showered them both with so much love, attention, and care while we were away. In our household, he will now officially be known as Saint Rufus. We cannot recommend him highly enough as a responsible and loving pet caregiver!

Schedule

I am currently on break from university, so I have all the time in the world to dedicate to your pets! Because my schedule is completely open right now, pet care is my primary focus. I am available 24/7 for daycare, and check-ins throughout both the week and weekends. Your pup will have my undivided attention and plenty of playtime.

Please let me know about your pet’s daily routine, dietary restrictions, and any specific triggers like loud noises or other dogs. I would also love to know if they require medication, have allergies, or have any behavioral quirks. Understanding these details ensures I can seamlessly maintain a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment for them.
