Pet care experience
I’ve enjoyed a whole life of pet ownership. Proper pet care is especially important to me and I bring that to the table with every client of mine. I have extensive experience with anxious, timid, and aggressive pets especially pets who require full attention. My experience is broad; I’ve cared for dogs, cats, lizards, chickens, rabbits, and plenty of fish. I’ve enjoyed a fulfilling experience caring for my regular clients along with new on Rover. *Dachshund specialist

Benjamin was a wonderful dog-sitter! He was very easy to communicate with, was attentive and on top of our dog's needs, and became our dog's best friend when we were gone!
Very appreciative of the patience for our pup!
About Benjamin D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I’m an attentive dog watcher. I try to understand their needs by monitoring for nonverbal communication and behavior. This helps me quickly iterate to, for example de-escalate an uncomfortable situation.
Information Benjamin D. would like to know about your pet
Please advise on any behavioral issues, physical, or mental problems and provide comprehensive instructions. I’ll do my best to accommodate any need to provide the best care.
A typical day
During our first introduction I keep our walk routine and comfortable. This is to ensure the dog feels safe and understands our relationship. I’ll walk them around the neighborhood at a slow pace allowing them time to sniff and take care of business. Happy to find dog parks for some socialization or avoid at all costs for the shy pups!
