Professional & Active Pet Care
Hey there! I'm an experienced pet care professional who has turned a lifelong passion for dogs into a dedicated career. I know firsthand that leaving your best friend with someone new can be stressful. My number one goal is to provide a safe, structured, and incredibly fun environment so you can travel or work with total peace of mind. I don't just "watch" your dogs, I actively engage with them. With extensive hands on experience, I am comfortable handling pups of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether you have a high energy working breed that needs an athletic, fast paced walk to burn off steam, or a gentle senior dog who needs a slow stroll and medication management, I tailor my approach to exactly what your dog needs. What to Expect When Your Pet is With Me: Safety & Structure: I treat this as a profession, not a hobby. I strictly adhere to your feeding, walking, and training routines so your dog doesn't pick up bad habits while you are away. Active Days: I am highly active and love keeping dogs mentally and physically stimulated. We do structured neighborhood walks, obstacle play, and plenty of fetch. Total Transparency: I know how much you miss them! You can expect prompt communication and a daily summary with lots of high quality photos and videos of our adventures. My Home Environment: When boarding with me, your dog is treated like family. My home is completely pet proofed, calm, and clean. I have a fully fenced, secure yard with plenty of room to roam and sniff. I do not overbook, ensuring your dog gets my undivided attention in a low stress environment. I would love to learn more about your pet's unique personality! Feel free to reach out to schedule a quick, no pressure meet and greet.

Ratings and reviews
Bradley took Cava on long walks, sent nice photos with each walk, and was flexible with scheduling when our plans changed. We'd definitely book him again!
Booked for regular walks on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Showed up right on time the first morning, then ghosted us on Thursday with no contact whatsoever. Unreliable
Bradley is awesome. He takes loving care of our kids. Our dogs always come home tired and happy 😊
Bradley took such amazing care of Zeus today! He came home so happy and completely worn out from the long walks, which says everything about the attention and exercise he got. It’s clear Bradley really cares and goes above and beyond. I felt totally at ease knowing Zeus was in such great hands—highly recommend!
Brad took great care of our young energetic dog. He came home exhausted.
Bradley is a great walker! Our dog had good exercises, and Bradley also took good photos.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am home for the vast majority of the day to provide constant supervision and companionship. My schedule is highly flexible. I also train daily and have a background as a competitive athlete, which means I have the time, energy, and physical capability to easily incorporate your dog's specific exercise needs into my daily routine.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my absolute priority. My home features secure, fully fenced front and back yards, giving your pup a safe, enclosed space to roam. Because of my athletic background and strength training, I am extremely capable of safely handling large, stubborn, or heavy pulling breeds on a leash that might overpower other sitters. I keep my home highly supervised, pet proofed, and structured to ensure a stress free environment.
A typical day
Our day starts with a structured morning walk and breakfast, followed by dedicated yard play (fetch or tug of war) to burn off early energy. Since I run a dedicated pet care routine, my day revolves around the animals. Mid-day involves longer neighborhood walks or a trip to a local field. If your dog is well socialized, they will join me on my daily dog walks. Evenings are strictly for winding down, relaxing in the house, and keeping to their standard feeding schedules.

- I like to be completely prepared so your dog has the best experience possible! Please let me know about any specific behavioral quirks, especially leash pulling, resource guarding, separation anxiety, or reactivity to other dogs/people. I also need to know their exact feeding routine, any allergies, required medications, and if they have a history of escaping or chewing.
