I am currently an educator at Sedgwick County Zoo and have experience working at doggy daycares and vet clinics. I have a true passion for animals and value respect and kindness above all else. I am also experienced in positive reinforcement training and am trained to safely break up dog fights, administer canine medication, and restrain a variety of domestic animals

William also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I always make sure to provide proper care and closely follow any instructions given. I am happy to provide walks, give dinners, administer medications, and provide any extra care that may be desired. With my experience working in a dog daycare, I am familiar with all sorts of special needs care for older and disabled dogs. I have a little bit less experience with cats, but I am happy to learn!
Ratings and reviews
William always takes such great care of our home and our cats!
William did a great job with my doggies. He was punctual with feeding times and played ball with them in the backyard. He was professional and payed attention to details. I would have him back.
William was very responsive and responsible. He came over early for an introduction and took good care of my two cats while I was away.
Will stayed in regular contact, sent photos of our dogs and left us a tidy house and happy dogs. We will book him again.
William is an absolute gem. He was willing to help me out in a bind and was just very responsive while I was gone on my trip. I would highly recommend him to take care of your loved one dog or cat. She will be my go to person in the future!
This went great. He came over and learned the house as well as my cat beforehand. She liked him immediately. And I noticed that he automatically uses distraction when n an animal does something wrong. (I used to be a certified dog trainer and do consults and the behavior hotline for an SPCA.) He sent pictures during. Best of all, she wasn't frantic when we got home like when we have just a visit each day. Then in the evening she went yowling around the guest room looking for him! Other things, the house was at least as clean when we got home as when we left. And he left us banana bread!

Schedule
My schedule will be a bit unpredictable over the coming months, but please feel free to reach out! I can definitely say that mornings are always doable, but nights will be tricker to manage depending on the week. If your pet has a rigid feeding schedule and gets dinner after 5:30PM, you will probably need to look elsewhere for a sitter for any time slot prior to November 1st

- Please think of any behavioral or medical issues that may arise during my stay with your pet. It is unlikely to affect the likelihood of my accepting a client, but I like to know ahead of time what sorts of things I might need to look out for (Examples: cat tries to escape through the back door, dog eats food off counters, history of seizures, anything like this that might be in issue during your absence)
