Big Hearted Dog and cat Lover

Pet care experience

A detailed-oriented person who is currently a full-time(9am-5pm) Civil Technician. I own a compact SUV as my mean of transportation. I enjoy being outside dog walking or indoors with your dog. I am good with following instructions to the letter and open-minded to requests by clients. I do not have any bias against breeds, so I'm open to taking care of any breed of dog. I am flexible and willing to adjust our agreement for you whether it's cancelations, extensions, or less time, I'm willing to roll with it. If possible, If I'm walking a dog or spend overnight with them, I would like a chance to meet them so they are comfortable with me and I know where their essentials are such as food, medicine, and toys. I can also do some additional tasks such as watering plants or some cleaning if you wish.

Ben was great! He kept up with everything asked of him around the house, Excellent communication, the animals all loved him. We got photos of the animals every day. Really could not ask for me. We will be using Ben again.

Ben was on time and was great with our dogs. This was a quick meet and greet to prep for a longer house sitting stay and everything went really smoothly.

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, where I am renting, I can't have pets. For taking care of your dogs/cats I am attentive, I follow the schedule and I'm used to setting reminders to make sure I don't miss tasks such as medicine. I work well with energetic dogs or more sedated, easy-going pets.

Information Ben T. would like to know about your pet

Anything that makes your dog uncomfortable or any special needs. Any kind of triggers, bad habits, or things they might get into. Contact information, vet, and people in the area I can contact if I can't get a hold of you.

A typical day

I can take your dog to the local trails and paths or follow a route that he/she is already comfortable with. I have a decent knowledge of the area thanks to biking around so I know where some of the parks and shaded trails are.
