Animal lover and dog sitter.

Pet care experience

Dogs are a big part of my life. I've been taking care of dogs since I was a teen. I've never lived without the company of dogs. They are my family. I make sure their basic needs are taken care of (e.g., being fed, potty break, bathing, playing, etc.) and they are comfortable and happy. I take care of your fur babies as my own. The most meaningful and satisfying reward for me is receiving their kisses and hugs when saying goodbye to them. This melted my heart.

Our dog would rather be with us than anyone else yet Dennis put her at ease, made her feel at home, and had her tail wagging not long after we left her for a multi-day sitting. Dennis' regular updates with pictures and videos were appreciated. It was great that she had some canine friends to play with as well. We couldn't have found a better caretaker for our doggie during our traveling. Highly recommended.

Dennis was very thoughtful with my dog Archie! Archie had a great time with Dennis and he kept me updated with many videos throughout the day. I would highly recommend him.

Hi Dennis! I wanted to leave you a quick review for your excellent care of our Weimaraner. We really valued your attentiveness and the regular updates you provided while we were away. We'll definitely be reaching out to book with you again in the future!

We had another great stay with Dennis. Our pup had a great time playing with the other dogs and we had plenty of updates throughout his 2 day stay. Ozzy had plenty of room to run and play and was allowed inside & outside the home. We will continue to reach out to Dennis for help !

Information Dennis H. would like to know about your pet

When I take care of your fur babies, I would like to know more about them, including their eating/sleeping schedules, diet, potty time, things they are allergic to, favorite types of toys/games, etc. I would like to have a good understanding of your dogs. I believe the more I know about your dogs, the better I can take care of them.

A typical day

I like to play games with dogs, including throwing frisbees, passing balls to them, playing hide and seek, and taking them for walks, which make them so happy. Every dog has its own unique "dognality" and likes to play in different ways. I observe and make notes of their interests and play with them based on their characteristics.
