Your furry ones are in good hands!

Pet care experience

I’ve been dog And cat sitting for about 2 years now. My family and friends have asked me to watch over their furry family from drop-ins to weekends away. I have administered medicine to dogs through pill pockets and given injections to my own animals.

Simon is the man with the plan! The best from the west! He doesn’t settle until your dog rest! Our SirDuke fell in love with him quickly like no one else. Simon, Simon, Simon is truly a diamond! We highly recommend him and we will not call any else! Thank you Simon for giving our dog walks, tlc, and treats - that big, strong K-9 didn’t make you miss a beat.

I have worked with Simon for over a decade and consider him a dear friend and colleague. He is extremely organized, focused, and driven and I have seen him home grow professionally on a rather large scale. He addresses new positions with determination and an open mind. I would highly recommend him for this position

Simon is one of the most, if not the most empathetic and loving animal-ally I’ve met in my 28 years. I’ve entrusted him with my dog on multiple occasions and never had a single problem, only one very happy girl who wants to keep being around him. He is also wonderful with his turtles and cares for them in a wonderful hands on manner, they never go without!

Safety, trust & environment

I always ensure my turtles they are in good health at all times, by keeping providing all the vitamins they can receive, giving a diverse diet and keeping the water extremely clean. As for my dog, we go on short walks 4 times a day if possible, and as previously mentioned I always ensure to stick to her feeding schedule and potty breaks to keep a sense of normalcy for her. In any situation where I am hired to watch over a friend's dog or cat I make sure to keep the house cleanly, feeding the animas when it is time pre-discussed with the owner, and I love playing and cuddling with them if they're friendly.

Information simon f. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know whether or not the dog is friendly with other dogs or other humans that it doesn't know. Also, the best way to interact when the dog is feeling anxious or hyper, as well as some commands that the owner uses that the dog is already trained to obey around the house.

A typical day

I like to play with the dogs using their favorite toys or however they are best to interact. Also, if the owner leaves a leash or a harness for me to go on a walk then I take them out to release some energy. Then I always make sure they have food and clean water, and if they were good on the walk they 100% get a treat.

I am a very available person since I have recently moved to Ohio and I would love to spend more time with animals because they bring me extreme joy. I recently adopted my own dog, Army, and I have learned how important it is for dogs to stay on schedule to their routines.
