Dog lover lending a heartfelt hand

Pet care experience

I love spending time with dogs. Taking care of them and providing the best care comes naturally to me. I have over 10 years experience working with dogs in a professional capacity. Listed below is some of the experience I have working with dogs. I have worked with dogs at a Dog Daycare where I was a Dog Wrangler and stayed the night at the facility for boarder dogs. I made sure they were fed, watered, received their medication (if they had any), and had plenty of play time before going to sleep. I would start my day by playing some classical music on our radio (to ease any anxiety any of the dogs were feeling), filling up the dogs' drinking water, letting them out of the kennels and rotating everyone to make sure they all got in some play time before lunch. I have also worked with Military working dogs while I was in the ARMY. I was attached to a veterinary unit while serving, and worked closely with MWD's or Military Working Dogs. While serving in the ARMY, I also provided assistance in blood withdrawals and screenings, teeth pulling, etc. I have a natural bond with dogs and I have also sat for and watched friends and family members' dogs as well. I provide love, attention, and care. Thank you.

Extremely pleased with Aaron's care of our dogs. He's very experienced, professional, and clearly takes pleasure and pride in his work. We would hire him again in a heartbeat!

Aaron has looked after our 6 year old Boston Terrier Luna numerous times in the last few years and he is typically our go-to whenever we are looking at taking a trip Luna can't join us on. Luna is generally a spunky and fun-loving dog, but she has several health problems (including allergies and epilepsy) that require a special diet and medications. We have really valued Aaron's ability to follow directions regarding her special needs and it is nice to know we can trust him with whatever issues she might be having at the time. A couple years ago our flight home from Florida was cancelled and Aaron did not hesitate to assure us that he would be able to take care of Luna as long as we needed. It was a huge weight off our shoulders during a stressful time and that flexibility has always been something that set Aaron apart from other sitters for us. Finally, the real worth of a sitter for us is often seen in how Luna responds to them. Luna LOVES Aaron, and her excitement any time she sees him (and even her occasional reluctance to come home after staying with him) lets me know that they've got a good bond. Obviously he's been doing something right!

My partner and I recently left our 4 year old Boston Terrier Luna with Aaron while we spent our anniversary in Florida. Not only did Aaron provide Luna with a lot of play time and exercise during her stay, he also followed her very strict dietary guidelines without any problems. This in itself would have impressed me, but when a storm hit Florida and the airport was shut down for three days (beyond our scheduled vacation) Aaron went above and beyond by taking care of Luna during this very stressful time and going out and replenishing her supplies on his own as needed. Needless to say, Luna loves Aaron and so do we, he really went out of his way to help us out! We will definitely be using his services again!

Aaron did a great job taking care of Porter, our 4 year old Boxer mix. Porter is a rescue dog that we have had for three years and he is a great dog but does suffer from seperaton anxiaty and becomes very depressed when we are home. Other people that have watched him have barley been able to get him to go outside or even eat but Aaron made an immediate connection with Porter and Aaron will be the only one to watch Porter in the future.
