Walkin’ the dog - Aerosmith

Pet care experience

I have always had dogs growing up. They have ranged in size from a Jack Russell Terrier to a Great Dane lab mix! I currently have a 6 month old German Wire Hair Pointer. I love getting outside with him and working with him on training. I have always been around dogs and enjoy time with them! I also cat and dog sat for neighbors growing up.

I think that Ben would be an excellent caregiver to any and all dogs. Ben has an excellent understanding of what dogs need, and is very calm and collected when dogs act up. He does a very good job with his dog, and my wife and I leave our golden retriever pup with him and his wife when we need a puppy-sitter. I’m very confident that Ben would be reliable and capable in any role needed of him.

Ben is great with pets. He’s very responsible and can adapt to any energy level a pet might bring. I would let Ben take car of/walk my dog anytime, my dog loves him.

Ben is an awesome pet caregiver! He recently got a dog of his own and takes pride in teaching him new tricks and how to be a well behaved dog. He loves animals of all kinds and is caring and passionate with them. He will treat you pet right!

Ben had a dog growing up and now is raising his first dog with his wife. He is a caring, attentive dog owner. He makes sure his dog is taken for frequent walks and is well cared for. He would be an asset to anyone needing help caring for their dog!

Information Ben T. would like to know about your pet

I am happy to accept any dog especially those that walk well with my own. I am happy to walk large dog even if they are slightly difficult to walk on a leash. I take my own dog to off leash areas and am happy to do so with yours if appropriately trained. I am also happy to work with hunting dogs and do any exercises or training with them directed by you.

A typical day

I do as much as possible with my dog and try to get him to experience as much as possible! From games like fetch to long walks with lots of sniffing or plying with friends he does it all with me. We take trips to the lake, hike trails, and visit many of the walking paths in the areas.

Availability

I work as an RN so I have a pretty open schedule and am able to spend time during the week caring for my pup and am excited for the opportunity to help others with theirs! Pet care is part of my daily routine multiple times a day for my own dog and for friends with dogs.
