Cat Dad life ft an Akita

Pet care experience

I’ve had some kind of furry friend for the last 15 years, originally with a Dachshund pup to now caring for 3 cats with my wife - 2 adult and 1 senior - with all sorts of furry friends in between! Throw in our Akita for some chaotic energy as well! I’ve cared for other pets as well on numerous occasions for friends and family, occasionally house sitting for some pets that were unable to be boarded due to stress and anxiety. This included pets that required medication and/or injections as well. I’ve trained all the dogs I had with multiple methods, and manage the current training regiment for our Akita. I’m fluent in basic commands (sit, stay, heel, come) both on and off leash, and have taught additional tricks (paw, kennel) via positive reinforcement techniques.

Trace takes real good care of my boys, I feel a lot more comfortable going out of town using his service. I also get the cuties pictures

Trace is an amazing cat sitter. He left detailed notes of every visit. Took great care of Simba. Provided him ample play time and lots of love!

Trace did a great job with my shy cat and made sure to give her attention and care for her how she was comfortable the entire time. Absolutely amazing!!

Trace was such a great caretaker for our 3 cats while we were out of town for the holidays. He made sure they were fed and watered and even cleaned up a little accident one day! I really appreciated the daily photos and visit summaries, they put my mind at ease while I couldn’t be with my babies. I will 100% be booking Trace anytime I need a pet sitter!

Information Trace D. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs, toys, food, or treats I should keep on hand? Do they have a specific spot the LOVE to walk at? What does a day in the life of your pet look like?

Dog or cat, we’ll match pace. If it’s a vibe kind of day, we’ll chill and play inside. If they want to hit the town and sniff all the smells, we can do that too!

While I do work full-time, I am largely flexible due to working remotely. I would prefer any elongated visits to occur after 5pm, but am more than glad to pop in for an hour during the day. Nights and Weekends are largely free sans any travel for work.
