Lots of puppy fun happening here!!

Pet care experience

I’ve owned dogs since I was a kid, and have cared for dogs over the last 5 years! Their happiness is my focus while they’re here! I have a fenced in backyard, and two dogs myself (Tiki and Bourbon 🐶🐶) who love to play all day! Every dog I watch are allowed on all the furniture, I don’t use cages (unless specially asked to do so), and I have lots of toys around. Let’s have a “meet and greet” and I’ll show you how your puppy can have so much fun here while you’re away, and I always send pictures and/or videos as often as I can so you don’t miss them too much!! I work all day, but have breaks to let then out often! All dogs free roam the house while I’m gone and I have lots of dog beds and big couches for them to sleep on while I’m away. Pick up/drop off times are: • M-Th: 5am-6:45am, 2:15pm-3:30pm, anytime after 8:15pm • F: 5am-6:45am, anytime after 2:15pm • S: anytime before 9:30am, anytime after 2:15pm • Su: free all day 🐶🐶 I require a meet and greet before agreeing to watch your dog, this is for both your dogs and my dogs safety. I take the responsibility of watching your pets very seriously as I know how important they are to your family, so the meet and greet ensures everyone’s safety! All dogs here get treated how they would at your house! Lots of play time (my Bourbon boy will play all day with every animal possible!), lots of snuggling, and no cages or restrictions about getting on furniture. I feed them breakfast and dinner, and will provide my own dog food unless you want to bring your own. I do not leave dogs unattended to in my backyard, I always make sure I can see where all dogs are at all times to ensure they’re safe and not “getting into trouble”, haha! I have a rotation of toys to keep everyone happy, and I buy new toys monthly to keep things “exciting”! I happily send pictures and videos of your dogs playing/sleeping/being goofy/snuggling to ensure you feel comfortable with them being here. If you board your dog here with me overnight, I have a king size bed for any puppy who likes to sleep with a human🐶☺️!

Brandon took excellent care of our little guy. He sent frequent photos, videos, and updates that reassured me that Cody was in good hands. AND Cody had a blast with his new dog friends.

Brandon is an amazing pet sitter. I left my Golden Retriever Finnley for the first time with him and his sweet pups and Finnley had the time of his life! Brandon is very responsive and will send plenty of pictures, videos and updates throughout the day letting you know everything is okay. Finnley was well cared for and loved. I highly recommend Brandon for any pet owner who is looking for a trustworthy, caring and responsive pet sitter!

Brandon is a FANTASTIC dog sitter as I trust him with my pup for whenever I go out of town. He is very responsive and will send plenty of pics or videos letting you know that everything is okay with your dog. I highly recommend Brandon for anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Brandon has been looking after my dog for 3 years (overnights at his house). He is our first choice dog-watcher, and has been available every time. We have no worries leaving Liberty with Brandon- we know she'll be well cared for. I love that Liberty is allowed on the couches and beds- it's like her home away from home! Brandon is great about sending pictures, and Liberty always looks happy and relaxed. His two dogs Tiki and Bourbon are well-socialized and adorable. I would recommend Brandon to anyone.

Information Brandon R. would like to know about your pet

If there are any special needs for caring for your dog, I ask that they are all discussed and brought up during our initial meet and greet. I have no issue with using special foods, or avoiding any foods, and have no problem giving dogs oral medication.

A typical day

A typical day is letting the dogs run wild in the backyard as much as they want to! There are lots of toys for the dogs to play fetch or tug of war with each other, and my Bourbon boy has created a “race track” in the backyard where any active dog is welcome to see if they can keep up with him running laps, haha! Then they get some time to rest in the ac while laying on cold/cool tile and wood floors, or cushy couches and dog beds placed all over my house!
