Caring Reliable Sitter Here To Help

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Tim and I live in Swanzey, NH. Thank you for considering me! I'm an easygoing, friendly guy who enjoys reading, movies, travel, and peanut butter. I'm an experienced petsitter and have watched over households many times over the years., including multiple dogs, cats, chickens and horses. I worked at the local Humane Society for 3 years and have acquired a good knowledge of animal behavior. I pride myself on attention to detail. When you hire me, you can be sure I'll give your precious pet that insulin or special food they need, as well as giving them plenty of attention! Why I love dog sitting: I was 5 when my family got its first dog and I loved them right away! Growing up I was around a German shepherd followed by black labs. Later on I worked at the local animal shelter where I was around thousands of dogs, from chihuahuas to St. Bernards. Dogs and cats can be so funny and all have such different personalities. It's really fun getting to know them, playing with them or just watching them sleep all day. My experience administering medication: I have experience from my time working in an animal shelter. We administered pills and shots, as needed.

Tim has taken care of my dogs and cats on three separate occasions, and we feel fortunate to have someone who understands their varying needs and personalities. Tim sends pictures and keeps us informed how everyone is doing. Everyone is very happy when we get home, couldn't ask for more!

Tim was amazing with our Yeti! We were a little worried to leave her for a full week, but Tim put us at ease. We came home to a VERY happy pup, who looked great and on top of everything, the house was tidy. Tim took wonderful care of our home and Yeti and we would recommend him over and over.

Tim was a huge help at the last minute and really saved us. Not only that, our dogs absolutely loved him and were worn out when we got home which made our return much easier. We will definitely be contacting Tim in the future to help us out again. Thanks, Tim!

Safety, trust & environment

I always stay over at my clients’ houses so I’m available 24-7 for anything your pets need, whether it’s a walk or comforting them in a thunderstorm. I pride myself on being reliable for both pets and their human family.

Information Tim H. would like to know about your pet

Important things to know are: their likes/dislikes, their personality, how he/she reacts to strangers and whether I need to be aware of any fearful behaviors on their part. Another good thing to know is what sort of special medications and foods are required. I don't have any particular breed preference, I'm happy to be around animals of every species and size.

A typical day

When I'm petsitting/housesitting, I spend as much time with them at the house as possible. So the only time I would need to be away would presumably be my 9-5 day job (Mon.-Fri.). I'm happy to adjust my schedule to whatever is best for your pet. We can walk where & when they prefer. I will always do my best to keep their stress levels low while their family is away!
