Pet care experience

I love dogs of all breeds and ages!

I have worked professionally in the dog care industry for 3 years as a Doggy Daycare Attendant and Professional Dog Bather. During that time, I have cultivated skills that include puppy and senior canine care, administering topical and oral medications, and assisting physically disabled pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I am happy to tailor my care to the specific requirements a pet parent has described.

Simon has been such a blessing for watching our two cats! He always seem to be available, he's reliable with communication and schedules, and doesn't just come over, feed the cats, and leave. He takes his time to hang out with them for awhile, which they need, otherwise, they like to get into things! ;) Simon has even watered a few plants, when requested, when we're gone on extended vacations. I also get updates on the cats and notification if something in the house seemed off. I would highly recommend Simon to take care of your pets! I also know he has his own dog, which he loves dearly. He'll treat your pets just the way he treats his own.

Simon has cared for our two cats and two dogs many times. He is trustworthy and dependable. He is always on time and prepared for taking care of our pets. He ensures safety while walking our dogs in the community by carefully avoiding other animals and maintaining appropriate distances from others (just in case of grumpy doggie moods). He also plays and snugs our pets to give them companionship while we are away. This is a huge one for us when we choose a sitter because it gives us ALL a pleasant experience. Simon is a strong communicator and will put you at ease leaving your pets. He is certain to know and follow your regular routines which keeps our pets calmer. He sends pics throughout his time with them and seems to catch some really fun ones too! He always locks up and leaves the animals space organized. We appreciate him and his genuine care for our animals.

Recently we used Simon to care for our two elderly dogs. Our dogs are 13 and almost 15, with one requiring an extensive amount of additional care due to age related dog dementia and kidney failure related muscle loss. This dog requires a very specific diet and medication routine in order to maintain quality of life. I’m so happy to report that Simon cared for our animals with the utmost care and attention. We will definitely use Simon again to care for our four legged friends.
