Experienced Caretaker and Volunteer

Pet care experience

In college, I was a volunteer with my school's Promotion of Animal Welfare Society. I volunteered weekly at an Animal Shelter in East Brookfield, MA, taking care of dogs of various age, behavior, and backgrounds. My responsibilities included walking the dogs, cleaning their cages, and feeding them. I have helped my family take care of our dogs and cats for 10 years. This includes walking, feeding, and having fun with them. I also worked hard with my family in training our 2 year old pitbull, Gordie.

Ben is one of the biggest animal and dog lovers that I know. We began volunteering at animal shelters together four years ago. He is immensely dedicated to the happiness and well being of every dog he is responsible for. His patience and gentleness is unmatched even with high-energy and anxious dogs. He will take great care of your dog!

Ben would be an asset to any dog family. He has been helping us with out pit bull Gordie who is about to be three since he was about 6 months old. He has helped especially with training and walks him every day. He and Gordie are best friends! I don’t know what I would do without someone as trustworthy as Ben. He is loving and caring with my elderly dog as well.

Ben is very caring and knowledgeable when it comes to caring for animals. He is extremely trustworthy and I know I can count on him to watch my dog for extended amounts of time or even just take him for a walk in the middle of the day. I am always comfortable leaving my dog in Ben's care, and I know he will always take great care of my pup!
