Very open schedule, always had dogs
Pet care experience
IMPORTANT: due to being firmly in the at risk category I will not be accepting any booking requests until the covid 19 epidemic is through. Any requests received will be denied for the foreseeable future. Hey there, I'm a freelance writer and musician with a minimal hours day job at the Clark College bookstore. I've grown up with dogs and still have some of my own. I especially love the little hairy guys, since I grew up with shih-tzus and have a pomchi of my own, but I also frequently take care of a very lovable greyhound and I love going on long trail walks and taking dogs to the dog park. I have experience giving oral medication to dogs and brushing their teeth and hair, some light nail trimming, and clipping off matts. I'm quiet and respectful and I don't particularly like parties. As long as I can write in some peace and quiet I'm a happy camper, and I'm sure your dog will be too.
Reviews
The pups are well cared for and enjoy Ben's company. He is an excellent fit for our three "girls" and we always feel comfortable leaving them and our home in his care. Couldn't ask for better!
I can’t say enough about Ben’s service! He sat for me for 12 days and took wonderful care of my two dogs and cat. He went above and beyond my expectations, giving them lots of attention and cuddles. He left my home clean and took care of some minor things needing attention while I was gone. His attention to details, communication and excellent care are something rare. I would not hesitate to hire him again! Ten stars!
We had Ben come back a second time with hardly any notice! he was very responsive & did a great job taking care of Emma. Thanks Ben!
Ben took great care of Scrappie and kept us regularly informed of how our little guy was doing. We will definitely look to Ben for any future sitting needs.
About Ben S.

Skills
Information Ben S. would like to know about your pet
How is your dog around other animals and people? Are they trained to know commands, are they food motivated? How house trained are they? Are they up to date with their vaccinations? Which vet should I take them to in case of emergency? I have a soft spot for small long-haired breeds, but I like most any dog.
A typical day
I love going on long trail walks at parks, playing catch, tug of war and keep away, and just running around.
