Pet care experience
I have been around dogs my entire life, and have never met a dog I don't love. I grew up with dogs in my house and became a dog-sitter because I love meeting and hanging out with new pups. I currently have an energetic foxhound named Oden. We go on runs and/or hikes everyday, and frequently make trips to the dog park after work/classes. I'm in my fourth year of graduate school for a PhD and spend most of my time working at home or out on adventures with Oden. Whatever the energy level of your dog, I will be happy to adjust our schedule to fit his/her lifestyle. Oden loves and gets along with dogs of all temperament.
Reviews
Lizzie just stayed with Benjamin for the first time and all was well. He said she was easy, which pleases me a lot (because that's not exactly my experience with her).
Ben took fantastic care of my dog Pluto during a five-day stay. Pluto went on a ton of adventures with Ben's dog Oden, and came home tired, happy, and healthy. Ben sent regular updates and photos and had great communication throughout Pluto's stay. Highly recommend!

I love dogs of all shapes and sizes. Please let me know your dog's temperament, energy level and eating schedule so I can best prepare to take care of them.
A typical day
Depending on your dog's preference, we enjoy long walks around the neighborhood, trips to the off-leash parks nearby, or longer hikes/walks in the surrounding area. We often frequent the Berkeley fire trails and Joaquin Miller Park in Oakland.
