Pet care experience

I love spending time with all animals, but especially dogs. I have one dog who loves having lots of doggy friends to play with. I can take your dog on plenty of walks and trips to the park. I grew up in the mountains in Pennsylvania so I feel at home in the outdoors and would love to take your dog hiking as well. I have been around a lot of animals and have plenty of experience taking care of dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, chickens, horses, and even flying squirrels. I am also experienced with aggressive breeds and know exactly how to handle unruly dogs. Also, I have helped to train many dogs of different breeds and I could assist in any training you've already started, as well as help to get rid of bad habits. I don't have kids, but I will take care of your pet as if he/she was my own child. I couldn't imagine a better time than hanging out with animals all day.

Brian managed to tire out my dog that I believe could run 3 marathons in a row if he wanted. I’m so impressed, so pleased, and so happy!! Will definitely use Brian’s day care again. Thanks for doing the impossible!! And for all the photos :)

My dog always has a great time at Brian's. He loves hanging out there and playing with the other dogs. He always comes home happy and healthy.

Brian was kind, responsive, and attentive to my dog's needs. You can tell he's really a dog person. His secured, fenced yard was perfect for dogs. My dog came home happy and tired. In fact, I think he's a little bummed out to be back at home in our boring house. Brian's dog, Butters, is a sweetheart.

Information Brian M. would like to know about your pet

If they are under 3 years old I would like to know a little bit about where they are in their training. Also I would like to know whether they are aggressive, how they are with other dogs, how they like to play (do they nip at you when playing or anything else I should know in this regard?), what kinds of activities they typically enjoy, and anything else you think is relevant. Do they have any out-of-the-ordinary habits? Are they prone to separation anxiety, and do they have any destructive tendencies? Are they an escape artist? How well are they trained with regards to holding in bodily functions until they can be let out? Do they need any kind of special care?

A typical day

There are plenty of dog parks around that I would love to take your dog to socialize. There are also a lot of hiking trails nearby that I frequent and would love to take your dog with me. Joaquin Miller and Tilden parks are some of my favorites. There are also lots of sidewalks and streets to go on walks around our neighborhood.
