At the Giaquinto Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, we are dedicated to rehabilitating and caring for injured and orphaned wildlife in Marlborough, MA. Our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate, and release any animal that comes into our care.

Last build of the year! The Giaquinto Wildlife Rehabilitation Center reached out for an enclosure for their new educational barn owl (which is non-releasable). It is a big ole enclosure and that's the smallest it can be according to MA Wildlife and the US Fish and Game!

Planning began in August with what they had in mind then designing and tweaking. Permit waiting game and was able to "break ground" late September, finishing up almost 3 weeks later. Features a fully enclosed transition space to help prevent her from eloping (or other pets sneaking in... )

Last pic is showing off the embellishments they've done in the last week!

Made a raised dog bowl stand based on what a friend saw on Etsy and asked for one to hold her two Yeti boomer bowls. Never made a circle cutout before (and I still don't like painting)

One last job for the year I've been working on before a procedure puts me on crutches.

Being supervised to make sure I'm doing it right 🐕 🐕

2024 is only half way over but unfortunately it is over for Scott! Currently extremely limited tasks can be completed and sometime before the end of the year (likely) those will be paused also to restart in 2025. Thank you for your support!

Client had some rotting trim/rake boards and wanted only the rotted portions replaced with PVC. They weren't ready to do a full PVC changeover and wanted something done before having painters come shortly after and paint the entire exterior of the home. Bonus for me as the painters were also going to be handling any touchup work, scraping, and filling gaps as part of their prep-work. There was a lot of paint peeling that was noticeable during the estimate from the ground and some clearly rotted parts, but once up there, not nearly as much as it seemed so ended up returning 75% of the materials purchased, great news for them because those boards are not cheap!

This job is also a great example of when I require insurance and only $100 to the cost!

Clients weren't happy with the composite decking railing cap or the stair tread depth off their backyard oasis. The deck rails were replaced with 1x material per request and added a round-over profile because the square corner just didn't look right! For the two steps, extended the depth to include an additional deck board, making it three deep instead of two and a sliver. Additionally, cost savings went to them as the previously removed railing cap boards were used to create this additional depth!

A bridge that was on the end of its life needing replacing last summer.

Some of the things handled through TaskRabbit since Jan, though most of Jan I was unavailable due to COVID 😷👎

We're big supporters of wildlife rehabbers and what they do! If you're in the MetroWest area, come to this info session at the Marlborough Public Library to hear Alyssa (who we have done work for) and Jessica (who has yet to hire us but should be dazzled upon meeting) discuss the terrible things rodenticide can do! 🦉🦅🦝🐺🦊

Join Alyssa Giaquinto of Giaquinto Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Jessica Zorge of Raptor Tales Rescue, and Blue the Owl, for an informative evening about the dangers of rodenticide on the wildlife around us.This event is suggested for 18+

The puppy has been keeping Scott on his toes (and occasionally his last nerve) but at 8 mo. old now, she's able to be left for longer times. Still not full days, but not every 30 min for a bathroom break like when she arrived!🤪

Scott started listing availability for **small** jobs on TaskRabbit beginning in Jan. If you like the warm blanket of what TR offers for ease of payment, satisfaction, and what not, feel free to book through that mobile application. Do please keep in mind that TR has a nearly 40% charge on top of what Scott sets his hourly rate to (and the rate shown is actually slightly higher than it is set to... a little deceptive IMO)!! TR started as an independent company but was gobbled up by IKEA in 2017.

Our same-day service platform instantly connects you with skilled Taskers to help with cleaning, furniture assembly, home repairs, running errands and more.

Summer update: Scott got a puppy and will be unavailable except for extremely local and short jobs for the foreseeable future. Sorry for any inconvenience. Feel free to reach out and inquire!

The phone is set to auto-voicemail so your best bet is to send an email inquiry, DM on here, or send a text.
