Pet care experience

Squirrel Patrol Specialist

I’ve always enjoyed being around dogs because every one of them has a different personality. Some want to run around and investigate every smell in the neighborhood, while others are happiest taking their time and enjoying the walk. I’m dependable, patient, and pay attention to details. If you leave instructions, I’ll follow them. If your dog has a routine, I’ll respect it. And if they have a favorite route, toy, or weird habit, I’ll probably notice that too. Friends and family would describe me as observant and easygoing. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know what makes each dog unique. My goal is simple: make sure your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind. Whether that’s a quick walk, playtime, or just some extra company during the day, I’m happy to help.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe good pet care starts with trust, communication, and attention to detail. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific instructions so they can feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in their home, I treat the space with the same respect I would want for my own. I make safety a priority, keep owners updated when needed, and pay close attention to how pets are behaving so I can respond to their individual needs. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable and confident while you’re away.

Dog Walking • Jul 06, 2026

William was excellent with our dog Coco. Coco was quite nervous and apprehensive at first but William knew exactly what to do to make Coco feel better. And coco really enjoyed his walks with William. We will definitely be asking William to walk Coco in the future.

I can't recommend William enough as a pet caregiver! As a husky owner himself, he has a natural gift with animals. I've seen firsthand how extremely attentive and loving he is, not just with his own pets, but with every animal in his care. Several friends and family members have had him watch their pets while traveling for vacation or work, and honestly? They won't stop raving about him. One thing everyone agrees on is that he never leaves you in the dark, he checks in with updates regularly, the good, the bad, all of it. You actually feel at ease knowing your baby is in his hands. That kind of peace of mind is priceless. You'd honestly be so lucky to have William looking after your pets!

William looked after my pup Migo a few times. He was great with Migo and Migo loves Will. Will is punctual and quick with text and photo updates and I was able to with my pup.

William is trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely loves animals. He is patient, attentive, and always goes above and beyond to make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible pet sitter or dog walker.

William was so proactive with our Sammy! Our husky gets a bit energized at home by himself haha but William took him out, ran around with him, sent us pictures and updates, and followed our usual routine. By the time I got home, old bud looked tuckered out and happy. It really took the guilt and worry off of me leaving Sammy in good hands these few days. I would definitely be relying on William again if I get called into work so hopefully his schedule will still be open. But still, he was really great with our Sammy and I highly recommend on my end!

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my schedule right now, which gives me flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and checkins throughout the week. I’m reliable, punctual, and make it a priority to show up when I say I will. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I do my best to keep their routines as normal as possible. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, feeding, or simply some company during the day, I’m happy to help.
