Love and care for your dogs needs
Pet care experience
I am a dog-lover to my core and am experienced in walking and caring for dogs ranging in size from chihuahuas to Great Danes. Each dog's personality I try to get a feel for and give them exactly what it is that makes them comfortable and happy--whether that is to go on multiple walks per day, play in a nearby park, or just sit with me on the couch. I love nothing more than to be surrounded by dogs all day and night, including in bed with me. I also have experience giving shots to dogs, as well as complex schedules of oral, ear, and eye medications. In addition, having put a dog of my own through PT, I have a great deal of patience for older dogs. I have a lot of experience in emergency situations and will immediately and confidently give your animal the care they need in any capacity while they are in my care. When I care for an animal of yours, you can rest assured that they will receive the best care and the most love available, giving you peace of mind.
Reviews
Brad was excellent!
Brad provided excellent care for my pets- good communication and caring presence
Brad took terrific care of my dog Brix when I was out of the country for a couple weeks. I was a bit nervous for leaving her for so long, but Brad really went above and beyond my expectations for a dogsitter, keeping me regularly informed of Brix's status and reassuring me (with updates and photos) of her well-being and happiness. It's clear that Brad cares a lot about the dogs in his care, and knows what he's doing. I'd let Brix stay with Brad again with no hesitation; she seemed to have a great time, and was obviously well cared for.
Brad was very flexible with our schedule and took such good care of our dogs that they didn't seem to have the normal depression that comes with us leaving them. Will be using him for our next 2 week vacation with confidence.

Information Brad P. would like to know about your pet
I feel very strongly about providing each dog and his/her parent(s) with the best possible experience. I would like to know a bit about the personality of the dog, what they like and don't like, as well as any favorite activities, things to avoid, and what gives them the most comfort. I also need to know if there is any history of aggression or biting. Overall, I strive to make the dog feel like there is little change or disruption to their normal schedule and routine. I am very comfortable working with all types and sizes of dogs. I specialize in and love working with giant breeds, but am comfortable and confident in providing for the needs of any size dog.
A typical day
I like to go where your dog likes to go and do what your dog likes to do. I love going on walks in any weather, playing fetch in the yard, or simply staying home and snuggling. Every animal is unique, and I do all in my power to honor that fact by treating each animal at any given moment exactly as they long to be treated. Dogs are excellent communicators of their needs and desires if people are willing to take the time to learn their language: pure love.
