Here to care for your best friends!

Pet care experience

I am as big of a people person as I am a dog person. I have a over a decade of experience in the dog sitting and walking. It is my way of helping others out and earning some extra money, all while getting time to spend with the wonderful creatures we all love! My neighbors had dogs all my life, so I was constantly around different breeds, of different sizes and ages. I have experience as a photographer of dogs and have begun to understand how different their personalities can be. It has been a joy to be around them so far in life, and I hope that through Rover I can continue to be around great dogs! Please reach out with any questions or clarifications you have about how I may help take care of your best friend!

Brayden exceeded my expectations when it came to watching my dog for a recent 3-day out-of-town trip. It was the first time leaving our pet with someone else and I was understandably nervous but Brayden was calm, patient, always friendly, respectful, accessible and easy to communicate with. He responded very quickly to my questions, no matter what time day or night, and was proactive in keeping me updated to let me know how our dog was doing while in his care. Our dog is fairly high maintenance and not an easy pet to watch; he is a rescue and reactive to other dogs, extremely high energy and needs exercise and also to be around people, so we didn’t want to leave him alone in our house by himself with a drop-in pet sitter, nor did we want to leave him in a kennel where it would be extremely traumatic to be around other dogs 24/7. Brayden’s home and neighborhood were perfect for our situation; there are no other pets in the home, he has a fenced-in yard for exercise, it’s located in a park-like neighborhood for long walks without encountering too many other dogs, cars or people for distraction. Plus Brayden was fantastic with our dog when it came time to deal with some of his fears. Our dog is extremely scared during thunderstorms, but Brayden stayed with our pet, giving him reassurance and also keeping me posted. Our dog was also afraid to go up and down stairs, but Brayden took the time and patience to encourage him to overcome his fear of steps until he was comfortable. I was very pleased with how Brayden was able to keep up and handle my dog’s high energy level and reactive behavior to other dogs as well. I would highly recommend Brayden as someone who is very caring, respectful and professional when it comes to watching your pet.

Stuck in a situation two years ago the day before we were leaving on our family vacation, our dog sitter, backed out at the last minute. Brayden stepped in with no hesitation! It was love at first site for our two Bernese mountain dogs! He was playful and loving, as though they were his own. We will only trust Brayden with our girls, Molly and Rosie now. Not only does he feed and walk our two girls while we're away, but he also takes care of our cats as well. A true animal lover! Brayden is very professional, reliable and an all around gentlemen. I would highly recommend Brayden for any pet service!

Brayden is an incredible responsible, reliable and compassionate person, especially when it comes to animals and the environment. He loves dogs more than anyone I know! He's been taking care of friends and families dogs for years now. He'd be the perfect person to watch after a pup while it's owner is away-- i would trust no one more than him to watch my own dog!

Information Brayden D. would like to know about your pet

I do not have breed preferences. Overall, I like to know the details, such as what the dogs react to, positively or negatively, i.e. which kinds of things startle them or get them riled up. What thins they really enjoy, or a good way to get them to listen well. The little detail that make them, them!

A typical day

I will go on long walks with dogs around my neighborhood where there is plenty of open space. I would be happy to play fetch with the dogs at the local parks, or watch some netflix with them; maybe they will be big fans of The Office like I am!
