Aspiring Dog Dad for Rent!
Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs my entire life and grew up playing with them, going on walks, and more. I've watched friends' dogs, my family's dogs, and have occasionally sat for extended family.
Reviews
Ben has watched Mini multiple times and has been so great with her! She's a bit shy, but warmed up to Ben very quickly and is always excited to come see him. He's my go to when I travel for work and need someone to watch her!
Ben is great and very responsible! Couldn't be more conscientious and wonderful with my older dog, Maizey. He is great at making her dog feel comfortable and relaxed. Maizey absolutely loves Ben and does a little happy dance upon his arrival. He is prompt, reliable, and trust worthy. I never worry a minute with Ben as my dog walker because I know he has everything under control. Ben also will update you as often as you’d like regarding your pet and their behavior, which I love. I don't know what I'd do without him!
Ben was incredible with our Irish Setters. He was punctual, responsible, and our Setters were well exercised and couldn’t wait for the afternoons when Ben took them for walks, the dog park, and community parks. He is easily the most reliable our family has had for watching and walking our dogs.

Safety, trust & environment
My apartment is ~550 sq. ft. so it might not be the ideal setting to watch a dog, though I live close-ish to RiNo and its parks. At a client's home, I'd defer to them on how their dog should interact with their environment (ex: not allowed on the couch, etc.) and of course walk them in their native neighborhood.
Information Ben S. would like to know about your pet
It's important that I know whether or not your dog is potty trained, aggressive with other dogs or people, and that they have any special health concerns (ex: hip problems that make going on extended walks/runs hard).
A typical day
Walks, playing with toys, going on runs, and going to parks are my go-to activities with dogs. I love to go on walks in Commons and Confluence Park so it's a plus if you live by there!
Services
Ben can watch in your home
Availability
I work full-time M-F 8-5pm, but am free to watch your dog, take them out, play with them, and more depending on my work schedule. I occasionally go out of town, but will generally be free.
