Fun home environment with structure
Pet care experience
I have 16 years of animal care experience with horses, reptiles, cats, dogs, small animals, and exotics. I worked at a dog boarding kennel for three years. I am available any day of the week and during holidays. I welcome multiple dog families. I would love to provide training if needed for basic obedience and puppy training. Let me know if you are interested in training while your dog(s) is staying with me. I am able to provide care to almost any dogs even those with disabilities or that need medication (oral or injections). Feel free to call in and check up on your dogs when they are in my care. Let me know what I can do to make your dog's stay the best it can be.
Reviews
Benji did a great job with my pups! They both came home happy and tired! Would definitely recommend and use again!
So patient with our newness to Rover and our dogs first time in regular boarding! Our two poodles had a great time. Benji communicated frequently, asked good questions, and took such care. The care and approach was based on our poodles' personality and that is the best!
We are lucky to find Benji to watch over Coco while we're on vacation. He is dependable, flexible with schedule and patient. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our Coco.
Our dogs first stay with Benji. Ozzy ate well which tells me he wasn’t as stressed as when he stays at a kennel. They both looked like they enjoyed their walks from the photos. They’ll be staying with Benji again soon!

Safety, trust & environment
I have two friendly dogs to keep your pet company. All animals in my house are only allowed together under supervision to prevent any issues that could possibly arise. Crate training is now required for the safety of all dogs at night. There is lots of property to run, so I have a long line, so dogs can stretch their legs in the fields!
Home
Information Benji F. would like to know about your pet
Any breed is welcome as long as they get along with other dogs and are crate trained. Currently I own two other dogs, so only under some circumstances will I allow dog aggressive pets to stay with me. I would like to know of any health issues before sitting a dog. Also any behavioral problems that may occur.
A typical day
I will take dogs on long (2-6 miles), brisk walks to get as much energy out as possible. I strive to maintain a focused walk where the dog must be more tuned in with me, then with the surroundings such as other dogs, people, or squirrels. However, in between the structured walk I'd be happy to carry along a dog's favorite toy for them to tug on or play highly supervised fetch with. There is also a lake in the neighborhood, that your dog can swim in(weather permitting). Let me know what your dog likes to do on his/her walks and I'll be happy to comply.

Availability
I'm currently working from home as a remote customer service agent. Of course your pup will still get all of my attention during breaks and after I clock out. There are usually plenty of other dogs here to socialize with (only while supervised. Let me know what kind of care regiment your dog is used to and I'll do my best to keep your pet on their normal schedule!
