Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Lilo had the best stay with Ben! From the very beginning, Ben was incredibly responsive, a great communicator, and clearly cared deeply about making sure Lilo was comfortable and well cared for. One thing we especially appreciated was the regular photo updates. We genuinely looked forward to receiving them while we were away, and they gave us so much peace of mind knowing that Lilo was happy and doing well. This was actually Lilo’s first time boarding away from home, so we were a little nervous. However, Ben made the entire experience stress-free. We never had to worry about her because we knew she was in such capable and caring hands. To make things even better, our flight home was unexpectedly delayed, and with very little notice, Ben graciously agreed to care for Lilo for an extra day. We were incredibly grateful—he was truly a lifesaver during a stressful travel situation. I honestly cannot say enough great things about Ben. He went above and beyond in every way, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter. We would absolutely book with him again!
Ben has taken care of my dog many times and is always great, no complaints. My dog loves him so much they’re like best friends and feel so relaxed knowing he’s having a great time while we’re away.
Ben K. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Ben is a great dog lover and took very good care of my dog. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pet with him. I would definitely choose him again in the future. Highly recommended!
Ben was a great communicator and took good care of our energetic puppy!
Second time booking with Ben! He’s always super communicative, accommodating, and makes sure my dog is well taken care of. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Schedule
I mostly work from home but do go into the office every now and then. When I am caring for an animal in my home I will not be going into the office unless totally needed, my entire schedule can be devoted to your pet.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I like to try and make pets feel comfortable, I know their owner leaving can be stressful and I want to try and mitigate that. I am not the type to feed them and run, I will be spending significant amounts of time with your pet whether that’s in my home or yours.
A typical day
Willing to mimic whatever your dog does at home! I am happy to go to dog parks, walk trails, long distance walks, you name it. For cats - like I get to decide the activities 🙄
