Animal lover in the Animal Field!

Pet care experience

In my role as a Senior Animal Services Officer with the City of San Jose, my extensive experience and understanding of animal behavior equip me with the knowledge of how animals should be treated—with care, love, and nurturing. Prior to this, I oversaw animal boarding facilities, gaining expertise with various breeds, ages, and energy levels, from small to large animals. For over 15 years, I've dedicated myself to working passionately with animals, both professionally and personally. When your beloved pet is under my care, they'll receive the same attention and care as if they were my own. Expect regular updates on their well-being—they'll be in safe hands!

Ben was amazing with Sophie. This was the first time leaving her for more than a few hours let alone a few days, but obviously it was harder on us then her. Ben was great about sending daily updates and photos. Definitely would not hesitate to leave Sophie with Ben if needed. Thanks again Ben

Ben was spectacular! Dobby really loved his place, and Ben was really communicative about how he was doing, sending photos within minutes of being messaged, and just generally we felt Dobby couldn’t have had a better stay. Ben clearly has tons of experience, and was even fine administering ear drops for a last minute ear infection we discovered 24 hours before drop off. Plus, Ben’s daughter was adorable and Dobby couldn’t get enough cuddles in. :)

Information Ben G. would like to know about your pet

I'd appreciate knowing beforehand if any pets in my care have specific dietary needs, require medication, or have behavioral issues that may require attention. I'm more than willing to accommodate these needs but prefer to be informed in advance.

A typical day

I thoroughly enjoy taking dogs for extended walks or hikes. Living close to the Los Gatos Creek trail means ample space to exhaust even the most high-energy pups. Alongside hiking trails, I ensure plenty of cuddle time for furry friends.
