Highlights
Pet care experience
VIP Very Important Pet service
I understand that your dog is a part of your family. With me, your pets will be safe, healthy and happy! A meet-and-greet is generally required but let's start with an initial discussion and some more info about what you can expect with me. I work from home and will be able to give your dog the attention it deserves. If your dog is up for it, we will go to a nearby dog park, a walk around the neighborhood or whatever best suites your pets needs. Exercise, discipline and rewards...best way to keep your dog happy! I adapt and customize every dog boarding/sitting/walking experience for each individual dog's needs. I have a knack for handling large breed dogs but am great with all sizes and breeds. I've grown up with dogs ranging from German Shepherds, Brittany's, Bull Dogs, Boxers, and Rottweilers. I understand the curiosities and fears of many dogs making me well equipped to handle all dogs regardless of their breed, size, gender or age.

Ratings and reviews
Bob G. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Oynx loves Bob, his walking behavior has improved, Oynx is just a big puppy, learning everyday. Bob has been helpful in Oynx learning some extra discipline as well, tips and tricks.
Bob is excellent with Oynx, who can be challenging, large, & strong 9 month old Lab puppy! I would highly recommend!
Bob is a great pet sitter that I will use again when travel out of town!!! I have 2 roughly 60 lb dogs that he took wonderful care of. I received regular updates with pictures while I was away. He also took the extra time to make sure my house was just as clean as I left it.
Bob far exceeded our expectations in so many ways. He was easy to communicate with, showed up on time for all prearranged meetings, and showed a sincere interest in meeting our puppy a couple of times before our trip to ensure she was comfortable with him. He brought her treats and bonded with her very quickly. He showed up a few minutes before we left to make sure Mabel wasn’t alone, which put out entire family at ease. During his stay, he checked in daily with pictures and updates about how she was doing. And when we got home he left detailed notes along with cleaning up the dog dirt in the backyard, cleaning both bathrooms he used, cleaning the kitchen, and even vacuuming high traffic areas. I was not expecting this level of care, but it was truly appreciated! I highly recommend Bob to anyone that is looking for a GREAT house sitter/dogs new best friend. My only complaint is that I think Mabel was kind of depressed to see us when we got home because she’d lost her new best friend in the process ?
2nd time using Bob. Great service provided again. Highly recommend his services.
