Med Student Treating Dogs W/ Love
Pet care experience
I'm a former volunteer for the Nevada Humane Society and a master's student at Temple University Katz School of Medicine. I've worked with labradors that were being trained to be seeing eye dogs. However, I've also cared for both smaller and larger dogs including an adorable Scotty named Cricket, a cute Pom named Belle, and a plump, loveable rottweiler named Athena. I also used to have a sweet eyed Tiebetan and Papillon mix named Remi (photos included). I also work with cats! Proud former owner of 20 Siberians. Raised them all.
Reviews
Brandon house sat for 1 week. We came back to a clean house and happy pets. Can’t ask for much more than that!
Very good with our animals and communicative during our trip. Even got our cat a toy. Connected very well with Boy and Girl
Brandon took care of my husky for two nights in my home. He was on time, communicative throughout the stay, and kept the house tidy. Huskies are energetic and can be stubborn and Brandon didn’t mind at all. He played with and exercised my dog more than asked. I would recommend him to others!
Brandon was amazing with my reactive pit bull. He is very knowledgeable on dogs who need special care and was willing to meet up ahead of time for slow introductions and familiarization. Definitely plan to use him often in the future!

I think over time you sort of develop an instinct for the pets you care for. All dogs have different personalities. Some want to be left alone. Some want all the attention in the world. Athena tends to keep to herself but Cricket was attached to me at the hip. I try to meet dogs where they're at and give them the kind of attention they ask for.
Information Brandon C. would like to know about your pet
I like to meet pets and their owners where they're at and do my best to fulfill their needs. If your dog needs extra care, I'm happy to help however I can. I've taken care of dogs with special needs before, including dogs with dementia and senior dogs.
A typical day
I live right across the street from a gorgeous half mile park. Perfect for taking energetic dogs on walks. I also love going to the beach.

I'm currently working from home and I set my own hours. I work in research and most of my work is mobile so my schedule is very flexible.
