Your dogs will love me!

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover. I am very good with dogs. I am good with reading a dogs emotions and communicating with them non-verbally. I recently got out of college and I have availability most of the time. I used to have a dog and she was a pain when she was younger but I learned to be patient and let the dog be comfortable in it’s environment. When the dog is comfortable, it is usually a better experience for me and for the dog. I am a lifeguard so I have learned to be very attentive for long periods of time and I will be able to give your dog attention for a long period of time. I am very nice and non-intimidating, so your dog will be comfortable with me.

Austin was great. He stayed at our house and our dog was happy and well taken care of. The house was left in very good order. He sent pictures and communicated with us. We would use him again.

Austin was great! He is like the dog whisperer. My dogs have been calm for the last 2 days. I believe they really bonded well with him. He was responsible and kept me updated with pictures. I felt that my dogs were in really good hands and I will definitely use him for future sits. Thanks Austin! You rock!

First & Foremost, Austin is highly energetic young man who is very responsible, caring & well rounded individual. I know personally he took exceptional care of his dog Willow as he was seen walking his dog in our neighborhood since he was 7 years old & always cleaned up after her. He was always the kid who came by to collect for the American Cancer Society & sold Boy Scout Cookies. I would highly recommend giving him an interview for Dog sitting or walking!

I make sure every pet is safe and secure on my watch. I used to be a security guard so I know how to fend off an attacker. I also follow directions and treat animals with respect.

Information Austin R. would like to know about your pet

What is the dog's personality like? Is the dog aggressive? Will the dog bite or possibly bite? Does the dog need any special accommodations? Is the dog comfortable with other dogs?

A typical day

I have a very big neighborhood so if you choose to bring your dog to me, I can provide a very large environment for them to walk in. I also have a large house, so your dog will enjoy the never-ending environment. I am athletic, so I love to run or walk or do whatever physical activity your dog needs to do. I have dog toys which will keep your dog distracted and having fun!
