About Keith
Hi, I'm Keith! I am a current owner of a beautiful British Shorthair cat and previously owned a Papillon dog for 13.5 years. I genuinely love animals and know the concerns pet owners would have, especially if they have to be separated from their own pets for a duration of time.
Being a pet owner myself, I know how nerve wrecking it must be to be away from your pet if you want to go on a holiday and I do strive to help make it as anxiety-free as possible for you and also ensure that your pets are well-played/walked and nourished during this period of time.
I've had my fair share of experience taking care of dogs of varying sizes and currently learning to care for cats in the same way. And I would similar care for your pets the same way I would care for my pets.
- About my services:
- I will be able to pet-sit at your place (with picture/video updates) where I will feed/play with your beloved furkids. I can also board your pets at my place, with a dedicated space catered for them. Because of that, I will only be able to board one pet at a time.
- For dog walks, I will be happy to walk around their preferred route which should preferably be around 20mins. Similarly, I will rather walk dogs alone (unless they are from the same family).
- For home visits: I will stay for a minimum of 30min (45min-60min if I need to walk the dog). I can help out with simple chores like bringing the mail in, watering plants, etc.
- For house sitting: How long can you stay in the owner's home during house sitting? What home security measures will you take during house sitting? I will be able to stay the full day (and sleep in my own house if needed), doors and windows are otherwise closed/locked if I am not around. I will be able to provide pictures/videos where needed for added assurance.
- How much time you can spend with pets:
- Because I work from home, I will be able to care for your pets throughout the day. I'm mostly at home to ensure the needs are met. I only drop by the gym for an hour once a day but my wife will otherwise be home to ensure that they are never left unattended.
- What is your home like?
- I live with my wife in our HDB together with our cat. We have made room / decisions based on adopting a dog so we have plenty of space and isolated space to ensure that my cat will be of no trouble with any dogs. The guest pet can sleep in the living room where my wife and I will spend most of our time at. Our gates and windows are also fully meshed and grilled so all pets' safety is ensured.
- When are you usually available?
- My availability for house visits will be mostly morning and evenings/nights to meet their mealtimes. Exceptions can be made on case-by-case basis.
- I can do basic training for verbal cues but no promises here.
