Ratings and reviews
Ben took great care of Tiana, and we got tons of photos. I definitely recommend using Ben.
Ben did an overnight with our dog and cat. Everything was great. He came ahead of time to meet us and our pets. You could tell he was comfortable with them. He was punctual, communicated and sent pictures.
Great communication and updates while we were away. Would love to use Ben’s services again!
Ben has been taking excellent care of my puppy Dexter. He is only 9 weeks old and has a crazy amount of energy. He has been going in 2 times a day which is a lot! He always quickly responds when I reach out to him. I love the pics he sends because Dexter looks super happy. Thank you Ben!
Ben did a great job with Trudy! We got multiple update pictures daily and it was clear that he was taking great care of her. We’ll definitely be booking with him again and highly recommend him!
So kind with dogs. Gentle and caring. Our nervous dog warmed up quickly! Thanks!

Schedule
My schedule is wide open for the most part currently, so is my availability to spend time with your animals in whatever capacity you’re needs are.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I don’t have any pets if my own I have a backyard where they can roam on multiple runs that extend a good length. I can take your dog outside as often as need be and they’re welcome to snuggle up with me as much as they’d like. I’m extremely fond of cats and dogs and enjoy their company immensely. I don’t currently accept dogs that have intense separation anxiety as multiple dogs have destroyed my screen windows over the years and it’s not worth destruction of property to me.
A typical day
At least one walk a day and as many visits to the grass as they require. I like to walk at George hill nearby that the dogs and I enjoy walking.

- Any kind of agressive behaviors are great to know about beforehand. Some older dogs are just plain grumpy when waking up and take a while, did they learn this from people? ?. Food aggression I’ve seen with puppies and I’m sure I can work with them but please let me know if they display any aggressive behaviors of any kind both for safety reasons but also to work with them and possibly unlearn some of that behavior. I don’t currently accept dogs with aggressive behavior, resource guarding, or have separation anxiety (nonstop barking and destroying property). I’ve had multiple screens in windows destroyed over the years and it’s just not worth it for me.
