Responsible & Loving Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'm Benjamin and I can't wait to meet you and your dog! The first thing you need to know about me--besides my love of dogs of course--is that I'm always looking for answers to the big questions in life. While I'm seeking out answers and pondering life's purpose, I want to pet some dogs as well! I have been taking care of dogs since I was 10 years old and have loved dogs from a very young age. I started a dog sitting business when I was a kid because my family's apartment was not dog friendly. I couldn't not have these amazing creatures in my life, and I have been a caretaker ever since! When I'm not sitting pets, I'm a musician and am currently studying for the GRE so I can start a graduate program in social work. I'm very interested in clinical therapy and want to incorporate my love of music and animals into my practice. Spending time with dogs is great as a stress reliever both for you and for them! I'm so excited to meet you and your dog. I'll make sure that they're as happy and comfortable as they are with you. Let's set up a meet and greet!

We had benji take care of our dog Zola while we were away. Everything seems to have gone great. We got pictures, updates, and our doggy seemed very happy when we got home. Would definitely use him again

Benjamin is great with dogs. He is a very loving dog caregiver and extremely reliable. You can be very confident that your dog is getting the best of care.

Benji is a great sitter! I've had him take care of my dog Sadie when I had to visit my parents and also during a 4 day vacation back in June. He is responsible and trust worthy and punctual (aka same timeframe everyday to feed/walk). He also spent plenty of time keeping Sadie company and giving her that extra TLC (an extra long walk during mid-day or taking her to the park). When I have to leave her side for whatever reason, that is exactly all I could ask for.... I've also known Benji for years so I trusted him enough to take care of her. I would definitely recommend him!

Information Benjamin M. would like to know about your pet

I want to know what makes your dog tick, what's their history like? Are they a rescue? Where did you two meet? The more I know about your dog and what makes them unique, the better I can care for them.

A typical day

I love Oakland and it would be so much fun to explore this great city with a furry friend! We could go on long walks or even on a nearby hike with your permission. When we aren't out and about, we'll hang out together and just enjoy each other's company.
