Pet care experience

Flexible schedule! Cats and Dogs 🥰

I’ve have been a proud pet owner and pet sitter for over 20 yrs. I have experience with medication administration, feeding walking bathing and nail trimmings. I’ve had and worked with all types of dogs and cats from spicy to shy from to reactive to calm. So I’m comfortable with almost any dog or cat. I foster both dogs and cats from the local animal shelter as well when I have the time/space

Ulysses has been our go-to for care for our pup for over a year now. We never worry about Lars while in his care and he’s always going above and beyond to make sure he’s well cared for and tired out while we’re away.

We wish we could take our pup with us all the time but we always feel good leaving him with Ulysses and his pack knowing Lars is well cared for and always comes home happy and tired.

The boys were happy and tired and clearly enjoyed playing with his pups. Thanks, Ulysses; we know they were in good hands.

We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible care Ulysses provided for our husky, Koko, over the holidays. Koko is not an easy dog—he has significant separation anxiety, which can make leaving him quite stressful. But Ulysses managed to calm him down and create a comforting environment that Koko truly needed. Not only was Koko well taken care of, but Ulysses went above and beyond by agreeing to cook Koko’s favorite food to supplement his diet, which showed his dedication and understanding of Koko’s specific needs. It’s clear that Ulysses genuinely cares about the dogs he looks after, and his patience and kindness made all the difference. If you’re looking for a dependable, compassionate, and attentive dog sitter, Ulysses is the one to trust. Highly recommended!

Safety, trust & environment

At our home we have a fully fenced in large yard (a little more than 1/3 acre) including a fenced off dog run. And in our home for cats we have a catwalk in the living room, plenty of window hammocks, cat trees, toys and a catio. Plenty of love and positive reinforcement/ redirection as needed .Solid schedule and plenty of enrichment. I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and language which will help me ensure you pet stays safe and comfortable. My dogs are super friendly and love to share their space with other animals. They will surely welcome your fur babies. My cats are friendly too. They will welcome any cat or dog.

It’s important for me to know about medication, typical day for your dog so I can try and stick closely to their routine. And really anything you feel will help me to make sure your dog is comfortable and feeling safe. The more information the better.
