Safety, trust & environment

I am very attuned to different breeds of dogs in particular and know how to serve the spectrum of needs around giving them space, attention and exercise according to their breed, temperament and age. I know this is all best lead by you, a loving pet parent and it is my goal to replicate your care routine at your home in mine.

Information Brendan G. would like to know about your pet

Any special or particular likes /dislikes and or needs around : food, general nutrition, current vax info, meds and where applicable, any aggression issues to be aware of with people and other animals, energy level, and general personality notes. Any other maladaptive quirks like chewing on household objects are good to flag as well.

A typical day

Absolute top of the list is to go on a beach run for local neighborhood dogs (Alamitos/downtown). Playing in the backyard or a nearby park is always a good go to.

Pet care experience

I grew up in "Charlotte's Web" (my mother). From being raised among and caring for everything from goats to reptiles to doggos and cats, connecting with animals has been a lifelong passion. I have 5+ years experience on Rover and 20 years independently. I have fostered , adopted and cared for a full range of low to high needs cats and dogs throughout my life. I consider my curiosity for and ability to empathize with our furry friends a core part of who I am and what brings me joy in life. I'd be honored to earn that trust with you and your furry loved one(s). ***** $20 OFF for Rover first timers, use code BRENDG87786

Had a great experience with Brendan for our first time with Rover. He was easy to coordinate with, patient and kind with our dog, and was very communicative while watching her!

It was the first time we left our puppy and we were so nervous. Brendan was incredibly communicative and sent us so many pictures & videos over the 3 days that made us feel at ease. It also looked like our puppy was having the time of her life with him! Can't recommend him enough!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
