Pet care experience

I'll get on your dogs level.

I have been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with 2 German Shepards and a Shih Tzu-Yorkie mix in a NYC apartment. Currently I have a 13 year old chihuahua with a collapsed trachea and 4 year old Jack Russell terrier rescue. I walk, play, exercise, and enjoy life with them daily. I have experience with all types of dogs, old and angry, young and energetic or any combination of the two. I pay extremely close attention to detail and I'm very capable of following all types of directions no matter how extensive and detailed. I'll take your dogs on long walks and make sure they get more than enough exercise and fun. I really hope to hear from you, play with your pets, and treat them as my own.

House Sitting • Jun 26, 2023

Sorry to say that Vick did not show up to house sit until I texted and reminded him many hours after the agreed upon start time and many many hours after my dog really needed the start of care to begin. My dog had to go 13+ hours without a trip outdoors due to Vick's negligence. Even then, Vick left quickly after the walk so my dog spent the entire night alone. This wasn't house-sitting by any means. It was a single walk after too many reminders. Will not rebook.

Sorry to say but this was a very bad experience. Vick only walked one of our dogs even though I booked him to walk both and the one he did walk, he took out for 15 minutes (verified by our security camera footage) when we paid for 30 min and he left her between the exterior & interior doors (a space a few feet long). Luckily my son in law was home to get her bc if no one had been home she could have been stuck there w/o food or water for hours. Very disappointed

Vick was super nice, responsive, and the perfect person to chill with our dog while we were on vacation!
