Hi! My name is Brian, and I have had two very active hiking dogs over the past ten years. Daisy is my current pup, and she is a four year old Australian cattle dog mix who joins my girlfriend and I on mountain biking and backpacking trips. I am a recent graduate who works in computer science and engineering, and I am currently writing grant proposals to fund going into academic research. I will be working from home, where my schedule is 6 am - 6 pm, and I will be taking Daisy for 30-45 minute walks every 2-3 hours to give us both a break from hanging out inside. She could use a few more pals to play with during the day, and keep her engaged whenever we go on walks around Brookline. For doggie day care, I offer full time dog sitting, where I will be with your pup from drop off until pick up every day. Your dog will get several walks throughout the day, either down the river way or to the dog park down the street if your pup is dog-park friendly. We have a very dog-friendly setup in our apartment, a few big bean bag chairs and dog beds for your pup to hang out on throughout the day, lots of toys to play with, and a very large park next door. We have tons of frisbees, tennis balls, and squeaky toys available if your dog is a fetcher and wants to play outside. For dog walks, I am available for 30 minute walks throughout the day, mostly in the morning and late afternoon. For dog walks, I have trained my pups using clicker training, transitional leashes, and harnesses, and I am familiar with using each of those appropriately. I will likely be walking Daisy to your house for pickup, and then we will take our walks from there. Unfortunately, this limits the distance that I can travel for dog walks.
