Having fun with dogs for 15 years!

Pet care experience

I have raised and trained two dogs growing up. Currently I have 1 dog in the house. I have volunteered at dog shelters and worked with most breeds. I want to provide a comfortable and fun environment for your dog. I have worked with dog’s of all types and am flexible to provide the best time for your puppers. Depending on the service we can work out a schedule that is tailored to your dog’s needs. What is most important to me is that your dog is happy during their stay. I work remotely and as a result have extra time to dog sit and dog walk for people in the Chicagoland area! I am available most days as long as you give me a little notice. I can dog walk, dog sit, or take care of your pup while you are away! I have a fenced in yard and two parks nearby to let your dog have fun! I can provide training reinforcements that you are doing with your dog, and provide basic training upon request during your doggie’s stay or walk.

Brian is wonderful. He and his family were so accommodating to our shifting pick up times due to family circumstances. And they took such great care of our boy. His stay was over the holidays, and Brian was so thoughtful to get Indy a Christmas chew toy of his own. He also was so great and proactive about sending daily updates and photos - that hasn’t always been our experience with others. Such a great stay, and Indy will be happy to go back to his new friends when the occasion arises.

I highly recommend Brian. We appreciated the updates and felt that our dog was in good hands.

Brian took great care of my dog, Max, while I had an important event going on. Max came home energized and happy. Book with Brian, you won't regret it!

Brian is a terrific dog sitter! Our golden doodle received the highest quality care available. We were incredibly lucky to have Brian and his poodle Challah take care of Charlie.
