“Frederick provided pet services for my dogs for over 9 years until I moved out of state. He is safe, respectful, a trained Vet Tech, polite, responsive and great with all types of animals. I also appreciated his flexible schedule. My dogs were better behaved after spending time with him every day.”

“We have been lucky to have Freddy stay with us around six times in the last couple of years and every single time we are met with the perfect amount of updates and pictures and are always greeted to a tidy home and happy dogs upon our return. He is always our first choice, and in truth, disappointed if he is ever unavailable, simply because he is the best! We wish all home and pet sitters could be as conscientious is Freddy!!! We are always grateful to have him here in our home taking care of our dogs!”

“We did not worry one bit about our home or dogs in the capable, knowledgeable care of Freddy while we were gone for an extended time. The dogs took an instant liking to him, Freddy quickly tuned in to their quirks, and we appreciated his updates and attention to our home and pets during his stay. How fortunate we are to have met a reliable, interesting and pleasant caregiver with such an extensive background in shelter/veterinary settings!”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Southpaw Pet Care! Freddie came to our house to do an overnight dog sitting stay for our 4 dogs. All the dogs loved him, and it was really comforting to know they would be in knowledgeable and safe hands while we were away. Freddy texted photo updates, and the house was left neat and tidy. All dogs appeared relaxed and happy when we returned. We will definitely use their services again if the need arises.”

“Frederick was recommended by a friend as the best pet sitter and she was so right. We had a meet and greet and my dog Murphy took to him right away . He’s kind ,knowledgeable and very reliable. He kept us informed and took some pictures of her walks. I would recommend him without hesitation!

“My two cats and small dog were so happy that I found Freddy to take care of them when we went out of town for an extended vacation. Freddy not only took care of our furry family members, but he stayed at our house and did a wonderful job…Freddy's background in pet care combined with his friendly demeanor make his services easy to recommend to anyone looking for a responsible house and pet sitter.”
Liz R.
“Frederick is the ultimate dog whisperer, and my cattle dog/pit is very judgmental. But that was not the case with Frederick. From the first walk to the present day, my dog can’t wait for his daily walks with Fredrick. I highly recommend Frederick for all of your four-legged friend needs.”
