I work full-time Mon-Fri in Lakeville from roughly 8am-5pm, so generally weekends are best for me for housesitting (Friday nights through Sundays), though staying overnight on weekdays are just as viable depending on location and frequency of daily pet care. Drop-in visits are similar, though weekdays are much easier to schedule for early mornings or evenings. Details can easily be negotiated through text or in-person meet-ups.

Safety, trust & environment

I try to stick to any routines or schedules you have with your pets (walking, feeding, treat giving, playtime, bedtime etiquette, etc). While housesitting, I'll usually stay at your home as much as I can during the week and almost all day on weekends to keep your pets company by playing or chilling with them depending on their level of activity. When I leave, I make sure everything from last-minute potty breaks to washing any bedsheets I use is taken care of before I leave. For drop-ins, I'll stay with your pet for however long you need. I'll also take pictures throughout my stay so you know your furry friend is doing alright (or if I catch them being silly!)

Information Wesley E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors, or medications that need to be addressed beforehand. I can handle any accommodations they may need.

A typical day

I'm always up to give your pup a nice walk around the neighborhood (I can certainly use the steps as well ;P). I also enjoy playing fetch or tug of war either inside or in the yard.

Pet care experience

I've housesat and looked after friend's pets (both cats and dogs, young and old) for well over a decade and have attracted multiple new clients through word of mouth. I love getting to know your pets and keeping them company while you're away. I also have some experience with pet medications and disabilities for older pets.

I can’t say enough good things about Wesley as a pet sitter. He has watched my cats on several occasions and every time I’ve come home to happy, relaxed kitties and everything in great shape. He goes above and beyond to ensure may cats feel safe, comfortable, and loved in his care. Wesley is super reliable, kind, and just loves animals overall. He takes great care of my 2 cats —feeding, cuddling, and he even sends me photo updates, which I really appreciate. It makes being away so much easier knowing they are in such good hands. I won't hesitate to leave my cats in his care again, and I feel extremely lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and kind. If you're looking for a responsible, caring, and dependable pet sitter, Wesley is highly recommended in my book. Your pets will love him!
