Pet care experience

I treat them like they're my own!

I have been growing up and living with dogs (and cats) my entire life. I have trained and watched over Labs, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Yorki-Poos, Samoyeds, and many more. When watching someone else's dog (or cat) I treat them as if they were my own, where I show the love and care every animal deserves. My home is quiet, comfortable and pet-safe. I will always have my eyes on your dog to assure they do not unintentionally eat or get into anything that they are not supposed to get into. Again, these are your pets, a very important part of your life, and I will take care of them the way you would if you were not going out of town (to the Bahamas hopefully!). Thank you. I always have a clean apartment and make sure nothing is ever in grabbing reach for my dogs. Any items I think a dog would get into I make sure to put away during their stay. My dogs have a lot of indoor play time and always have fresh water available. There are many comfortable rugs with working A/C.

Brandon was amazing!! During our trip, another sitter cancelled our booking (!). So I had to frantically start looking for a replacement. Brandon quickly accepted the request and picked up the dog. He sent frequent updates, photos, and videos. It was evident that the dog was happy and comfortable with them. Highly recommend him!

Brandon really made Murphy feel right at home when he watched him while I was out of town for a work event. He was so flexible with drop off and pickup as I was figuring out my times. While Murphy was with him he was so thoughtful and caring and though he was sent with a few toys Brandon found some other things for him to play with! Very very highly recommend when you’re looking for someone to watch your dog while you’re away!

Brandon did an amazing job in taking care of Nami. He gave me frequent updates and even random silly moments with my dog which helped me feel more at ease. Thanks for caring for Nami like she’s your own! Will def book again.

Safety, trust & environment

My apartment building is safe and in a good area close to parks. My apartment is always clean so the dog will not be able to get into anything they shouldn't.

A typical day

There is a lot of play time indoors. I frequently take dogs almost daily to the Riverside and Central park. I find it important for my dogs to be around nature and the parks have multiple areas that provide calm outdoor areas for the dog.
