18. Michael & Pamela B.
About: Living in beautiful San Diego with my wife and son, I continue to provide exceptional care for pets, ensuring they feel at home while their owners are away. The approach is simple: shower pets with all the love and attention they need, just like we would with our own furry family members. What sets us apart is our family-oriented approach to pet sitting. With my wife and son as my partners in care, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets, making them feel like part of our family. Our goal is to provide a loving and comfortable experience for pets, giving them the attention and care they deserve. Together, we offer a unique blend of experience, compassion, and dedication that ensures pets are happy and content in our care. As a self-employed individual working from home, my daily and weekly routine is flexible, allowing me to dedicate ample time to pet care. I prioritize the well-being of our furry friends, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. Pet care routine is woven seamlessly daily, with scheduled feeding and playtime. Balancing pet care with my responsibilities to my son, wife, and art is a top priority. I have structured the daily routine to accommodate the needs of the dogs while also allowing time for work and family activities. Whether it's taking breaks throughout the day for a quick walk or spending quality time with our pets in the evening, I make sure they are well cared for and feel like part of the family. In my home, pets are treated like family and have full access to our amazing yard. They can lounge in the sun, explore the garden, or play to their heart's content in our secure outdoor space. Inside, they have a cozy spot to rest and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. Routine is tailored to each dog's needs and may include regular feeding times, outdoor play sessions, and lots of love and attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I aim to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for them. I make use of any outdoor space available, whether it's a backyard, patio, or garden, to ensure pets have the opportunity to get fresh air and exercise. Routine is customized based on each dog's needs and may include outdoor playtime and lots of interaction to keep them happy and engaged. We also ensure their indoor space is clean, cozy, and secure, so they feel right at home while their owners are away.
