Dogs Are My Spirit Animal 🐶

Pet care experience

Over the past 10 years, I have trained and watched all different types of dogs. Dogs bring me so much joy and I treat all dogs as if they were my own. I’ve trained small puppies to older dogs that were deemed untrainable. I live downtown Flagstaff with a 3 bedroom house and big fenced in backyard, giving plenty of space for dogs to run around and play. When you’re dogs are with me they will always be in the best hands out there. I’m more than happy to FaceTime or chat via phone before scheduling as well if you’d like to meet me or take a tour! My home is a great space for dog sitting, especially since I have a large fenced in backyard, and I’m conveniently located right downtown Flagstaff. I have windows on every side of my house so I’m always able to keep an eye on the critters even when I am inside. I live in and always keep a clean environment inside and outside my home. I can assure you that any pets in or outside of my home will be safe from any trash, dangerous objects, harmful chemicals, and any food that I have stored. Making sure everyone gets along is very important to me - I often have other dogs at my house and want to assure you that your dog will always be safe and comfortable. I am always present when introducing new dogs to see the behavior of each dog. From there I am able to assess whether or not they will get along, and if they can be left together when I am not present. If dogs do not get along, I will always ensure to separate them whether inside or out, so you never have to worry. I’m always home 7 days a week and fully committed to pet care, so I have plenty of time to play with pups throughout the day. Whenever I am watching pets at my house, I ensure their needs are being met and try to give them lots of attention and playtime. Your pet will always be the primary focus when they are with me, and I can guarantee they will always be comfortable and happy!

Brian is a dog whisperer plus a genuinely good person. I knew this immediately because my dog with severe separation anxiety met him and proceeded to trot right after him without a single glance back. That says it all! I had something of an emergency and Brian could not have been more kind or accommodating. I absolutely recommend Brian. You can trust him to understand your dog, listen, and care for them like they are his own. I’ll be back, Brian!

Brian took excellent care of our two high-energy GSPs! They’re a handful and they did great with Brian. He helped us load and unload our heavy crates, had the boys prepared when we came to pick them up, and was very responsive to messaging. We highly recommend Brian and will use him again!

Brian is a wonderful sitter and our guys had a blast hanging out with him at his place. Great fenced in back yard so they can roam around and get the energy out! Would definitely use Brian again to watch our dogs,

Had a wonderful experience with Brian! My partner and I needed a sitter last minute while attending a wedding in Flagstaff and Brian was super responsive and happy to accommodate us. I would absolutely recommend him if looking for a sitter in the Flagstaff area.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks around the downtown area, and also over to the numerous parks that we have within blocks. They are also great trails that are accessible behind the observatory that I also walk dogs on. Other than walking, I love playing fetch and tug-a-war with pups in the backyard.

Pet care is what I do primarily for a living, so I always make sure I get playtime in with each pet that I am watching so they are engaged and comfortable. In addition, I always ensure each pet is getting an equal amount of attention during their stay to keep things fair and ensure all critters are happy!
