Pet & House Sitting

Pet care experience

I have 3 years of experience. I started watching family friends' pets, and word of mouth has expanded my services. I also do any chores you need to do around the house, such as watering plants and ensuring packages and mail are brought into the house safely.

Silas is amazing! My dogs loved him and they were so happy when we returned home. I have a senior dog who requires medicine and Silas made sure it was taken care of on time. He was very respectful of my home when he did an overnight stay and even cleaned up all the dog toys (and my dogs have a lot of toys!!). Thank you, Silas and I can't wait for you to watch the boys again.

Silas took great care of our two pups. Our two pups have very different personalities and Silas did great at managing them both. I got lots an updates and pictures during his stay with the dogs. Our house was clean and orderly when we got back and both the dogs were happy. He was also very flexible when travel plans changed and easy to communicate with. Would have him watch them again for futures trips!

Silas is the perfect choice for your pet and house sitting needs. From the moment we met him, our fur babies (2 dogs and 3 cats) didn't take long to be comfortable around him. Silas is very attentive to their needs and follows our directions well. If you are looking for someone that you can trust and genuinely loves pets, he's the perfect choice...do not hesitate to book him!

I cannot give a higher recommendation than I am for Silas P. He’s been our dog sitter for several years and we don’t ever have the be concerned about our 2 precious dogs! He does exactly what we ask of him while staying at our home to care for our babies. Our 1 dog is on a medication and he’s conscientious with taking care of her getting them as needed. He is the most kind, loving, natural animal person to care for your animals. His prices are reasonable and we’re so grateful to have him here when we head out of town. You can be sure to rest assured that your babies are in great hands! Susan Porter

Safety, trust & environment

I follow the requirements left behind by the homeowner. Everyone has their routine, so I follow how each person operates. I do pet house-sitting in my client's homes and stay overnight; that makes them feel the most secure by ensuring everything is intact and someone's home just in case of an emergency.

Information Silas P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your animal needs any specific medication daily. I've had to do that before and rub ointment on a dog's side for a while since it was recovering from an injury in its past.

A typical day

Based on the personal preferences of the homeowner and what they want me to do, I will always abide by those. I like too make sure the animals are getting their daily exercise in.
