Pet care experience

Infinite dogs please😂

I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for my family since I was little. It’s very heart warming for me to earn the trust of a new animal and getting to cheer up and make friends with a pet that really misses their owner. And any excuse to get me outside is always welcome :) have a good one!

Safety, trust & environment

I always try and cycle in new toys for my cat, mochi, he’s a little over a year old now. He eats applaws wet food twice a day, always has some tiki cat kibbles in the bowl throughout the day and i got him a little cat water fountain:), I scoop his litter every day and change it about every 5 days. He loves his cat tower and when i bust out the cat wand. I also love playing with dogs as well; chase, tug of war , hide and seek , dog park trips are the best , it’s so cute though to me when a dog is obsessed with toys 😂

I appreciate Brian and his commitment to taking care of my best friend while I'm away. I believe my beautiful dog is in good hands.

Brian came in to do a meet and greet with Kiara, and immediately bonded with her. He took her for a long walk. After which our dog returned feeling content, happy and fully tired. Definitely recommend Brian for his responsiveness and good care.

Brian and I have been friends for a few years since we met at work. On several occasions, Brian has helped care for my dog Oso while we were gone. Oso is the tiniest little chihuahua mix and is super sensitive who tends to bark a lot and have abandonment issues. Having Brian house-sit has been a huge help because Oso is much too antsy to put in a dog hotel or something like that, and now my family has been able to go on trips to places where we previously weren’t able to, since we couldn’t bring Oso in the car. Oso loves Brian and is obsessed with him. My family and I are so grateful that we have someone dependable to feed, walk, bathe, and take care of all of Oso’s needs while we’re away.

We had three (one has since passed) rambunctious terrier mix dogs for the handful of times Brian took care of them for overnight care. My dogs adore him. They see him coming and tails and bodies start going crazy. He snuggles with them and gives them caring support. We are also fortunate to get regular updates via texts and photos on how comfy, cozy they are being cared for by him. We used to board the dogs and they’d come back thinner and clearly depressed. It would take weeks for them to snap out of it, but since Brian has come onboard, it’s almost as if they don’t miss us at all and we are grateful for the piece of mind Brian’s care affords us.
