Pet care experience

Day care, boarding, and dog walking

I grew up with dogs and cats and now have a 2 year old golden retriever that I raised as a puppy. I’ve invested a lot of time learning how to train dogs effectively so that I can best care for my own and others dogs. I work from home full time, so would love to provide day care for dogs that get along well with others and that would benefit from individual attention and another dog playmate.

Ben does a wonderful job with our dog. He is attentive, kind, and caring. His home is clean and very well kept. He is great with communication and easy to get in touch with. Whether it's for an afternoon or overnight Ben has always done great with our labradoodle Maisie.

Ben was a fantastic dog watcher and walker for my rambunctious, energetic, and sometimes stubborn Golden Retriever puppy. He was patient and able to take the time to encourage my pup to walk at a more controlled speed during their daily strolls and provided photos of his day! When I picked him up he didn't want to leave, as he had a great time playing with Ben's dog as well. Highly recommend!

Schedule

**I just started on Rover so that’s why I have only a few reviews. Setting prices low to get initial clients, so take advantage! Happy to talk through any questions to make sure you feel great about your pet’s care!** I work fully from home so am available for day care during the work week and some weekends. I can also do dog walks or drop ins during the work week. I’m open to overnights as well after first successfully testing out day care.

A typical day

I work fully from home so we usually go for walks in the morning, afternoon, early evening, and before bed. Throughout the day, I provide regular attentional and play either in the house or outside depending on weather. I have a quiet and calm home environment, so also plenty of nap time after activities :)

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors to watch out for. I have a dog at home so I’m only willing to provide day care or board for dogs that do well with others.
