"Dogs Best Friend"

Pet care experience

Hello fellow dog lover! Animals of all kinds have a special place with me, it's fun to get to know all of their different personalities. I became a pet sitter to hang out with other dogs and help others in my community. I have been around dogs most of my life and have taken care of tons of different dogs. Between my families three Blue Heelers and the countless number of neighbor I dog sit for, I consider myself a veteran. I'm very active and will make sure our four legged friends are too! Whether they typically like a walk, fetch, or long run, I'm happy to be active with them. Is your dog needy and needs love when you're away? Thats okay--dog snuggling is one of my favorite hobbies! If you need to reach out while you're away, via a text or a call, I'm always reachable. I work from home and I have a very flexible schedule so I can work around your busy one! I'm available pretty much all day during the weekdays and some weekends. I love to meet new dogs of all shapes and sizes. I understand how hard it is to leave your pet behind--but I'll be here to treat them like family. I enjoy building relationships with both people and dogs, and I can't wait to meet you.

Ben was recommended to me from a friend. I've been able to get Ben to house/pet sit for me on numerous occasions. He is great with my 2 dogs and a cat. Ben is caring, professional in all ways. I count on him to help out even in emergency situations. Ben does a wonderful job and my pets are always well taken care of. When Ben is here, I feel completely at ease when I need to leave my pets for trips.

Ben is a reliable and loving dog sitter for our seven year old Aussie, Benny. He is Benny's second favorite person (after me of course)! Benny loves spending time with Ben because he takes him on walks, throws the ball for him, feeds him, and gives him lots of love. Ben also regularly watches my in-law's Aussie and my parent's Lhasa Apso, and they trust him to take good care of their babies. I think what makes Ben a great pet-sitter is his natural connection with animals. He has a calm presence that makes animals at ease and trusting of him. Ben is a responsible, caring, and respectful individual who would be a great choice for anyone's pet-sitting needs!

Ben has taken care of my beagle several times for several days at a time. He is reliable and loves animals. My dog was a handful ( he has since passed) but he sure loved Ben. Kristi W.

Information Ben M. would like to know about your pet

I prefer larger dogs to smaller dogs but really am happy to spend time with any pup. I like to know if they have any places or things they really love, whether its a special toy they have or a walking route that passes their favorite tree. I would also like to know if they have any health issues, behavioral quirks, or any other special concerns.

A typical day

I love to take dogs to parks, trails, anywhere I can get closer to nature! If they love frisbee I can throw a mean frisbee, or how about fetch with a ball? No problem! Or if its just a little tug of war they want my strength will give them a run for their money.
