I'm an American living in Dublin, currently completing a postgraduate degree. My love of animals is lifelong. While working as an English teacher in Kosovo I adopted a little street dog I named Izzy, who I am in the process of bringing to Ireland. Navigating the logistics of international pet transport has given me a deep appreciation for how much our animals mean to us and how seriously their care deserves to be taken. My motivation for pet sitting is straightforward. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and understand the anxiety of leaving a pet in someone else's care (Izzy is currently with my family in the United States while I finalize her entry permissions) I want to be the kind of sitter that pet owners feel completely confident about. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various sizes and temperaments, as a tall man I can handle larger or more energetic dogs who can sometimes be more difficult, and I am patient, attentive, and reliable. I am comfortable with both dog walking and home sitting arrangements and will always keep owners updated with photos and messages throughout. I aim for half an hour walks, please discuss with me if longer walks are needed. I only accept vaccinated pets and will confirm vaccination status before finalizing any booking.
