Pet care experience

Our pets deserve all our love

I've been taking care of dogs, reptiles, amphibians and small mammals for over 10 years. Currently work with Athena, my German shepherd mix we rescued, who's afraid of people and other dogs but is no doubt a sweetheart to her core. Having a dog who requires a lot of patience and support has helped me to learn how to properly care for a reactive dog. Including meals, walks and plenty of playtime i can also provide services such as administering your pets medication and fulfilling any extra special requests! no request is too much when it comes to your animals.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Sadly I cannot board any pets at my home as my dog does not do well with other animals. But at your home I would treat your house, your dog and your rules with the utmost respect. I like to say; treat someone else's things the way you'd want them to treat yours! No matter how obscure or even simple of a rule or request you provide, rest assured it will be followed.

I don’t even know where to start with this review because Brandon was more than amazing and is so kind! We were in town for a wedding and I had my GSD with me and he has pretty bad separation anxiety. Brandon came to the hotel the day before to meet him and Thanos was being a little reactive and Brandon handled it perfectly! The confidence, not giving the eye contact right away and just being calm. He really anticipated Thanos needs and was super accommodating to our situation being in a hotel and everything. He truly is the best guy if you have a dog that has some anxiety. Then while we were at the wedding he sent me multiple messages (sometimes idk who has more separation anxiety, me or Thanos lol) and pictures letting me know how Thanos was doing which was so nice. If I’m ever back in the area I know exactly who to call!

Brandon is great with my 2 dogs. One is easy going and mellow, and the other, while getting old, can be a challenge (he's curious, smart, and figures out the most creative ways to get to stuff he shouldn't have). Brandon gives them all the love and affection they're used to. I don't know if they even notice I'm gone! He also sent lots of great pictures to keep me updated. 👍

Brandon is reliable and great with dogs of all sizes! He is patient with letting your dog get to know him and we will keep having him back to watch our dogs.

Brandon was great at the meet and greet. He only stayed for 20 minutes though. He also only took them out for about 10 minutes instead of the 30 we paid for. It was cold but not horrible.

One of the greatest sitters I’ve had in a while. Quick, attentive and professional. Handles my 110 lb Doberman with ease and Kingsley loves him.
