Simon was able to cuddle and pet AJ the first night! The cat is very cautious and skittish but took to Simon. He carefully followed his feeding schedule and was very attentive to AJ's needs. Simon is a delight and if needed in the future, I'll request that he is the sitter.

What a wonderful sitter Simon is! He sent many photos and videos over the length of the cat’s stay which really helped.

Simon was very friendly and knowledgeable on caring for Ramzy. He introduced him to multiple different dogs, so while we were away, it just seemed like Ramzy was on his own little vacay with friends. Updated me daily with pictures and videos I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.

Simon was great! He gave consistent updates with photos and video. He showed up in time and left our house tidy after staying for the weekend with our dog Carl.

Safety, trust & environment

In regard to boarding and daycare, I'll need owners to drop off and pickup. I prefer small dogs mostly due to the fact that sit multiple dogs at a time, so it's more so a safety concern. I have a large unfenced yard and live in a quiet, safe, and walkable suburb neighborhood. There's a soccer field right around the block that’s perfect for running around, and High Bridge dog park 3 miles away.

A typical day

I’m in this for the long haul. I’m here to literally play with your pets, snuggle and cuddle with them, to hold them, pet them, feed, bathe, walk, etc. I genuinely like pets. I’m not here to just feed your pets and dip out. I’m here to actually hangout with your pets while you’re away from home. I’m solely here for your pets needs.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
Simon can host up to 5 pets per night
When it comes to boarding and daycare, please plan to drop off your pets with everything they’ll need. This includes bed, food, treats, medication, toys, leash, etc. I want to provide a fun, safe, and loving home and am willing to accommodate any preferences. And please let me know if your pet has any special needs, behaviors, specific command words, allergies, medicine, dietary restrictions, potty training, etc. Generally, the more information you can provide about your pet, the better time they'll have. But I can adapt very easily too without any known information about your pets. Equipment I already have: 16ft portable gate, 5ft cat tower, cat scratch post, 24x15x12in portable kennel, fridge/freezer for their cold meals, bathing/grooming tools, food/water bowls, litter box and scooper, cat toys, cat walkway that wraps around the room, and I have an unfenced yard but I do have a shaded 5x4x3ft outdoor dog kennel with a 50ft tie-out cable.
