I have lots of professional experience working at two different daycare and boarding kennels, both of which have given me extensive knowledge about dogs! I am skilled with ALL ages, sizes, and temperaments.

Basil was great with our 10 month old puppy! Very attentive and caring, and communicated with us when our dog seemed to not be doing well. Our dog returned home happy and healthy. We would definitely recommend Basil for pet sitting.

Basil was great with our 2 (high energy) dogs. She was punctual, gave them a good walk and kept me informed about the details. We really appreciate her help!

Reference for Basil Basil has been a wonderful dog walker. He is reliable and confident, and he is able to handle my Chihuahua–Jack Russell mix, who has a previous biting history, with calm assurance. Basil has a natural gift with animals, and my dogs absolutely love him. He communicates clearly and consistently, and I have complete confidence that he follows through with the walks and care exactly as requested. I would highly recommend Basil to anyone looking for a trustworthy and capable dog walker. ⸻
