Husband. Dad. Pastor. Dog Lover.

Pet care experience

Hey! My name is Brian. My best friend is my 85 pound Chesapeake Bay Retriever - Levi James. I give the best butt scratches which will keep dogs coming back. While walking and visiting, I will work on training basic obedience - sit, stay, down, turning, healing on a lead. I drive a four wheel drive truck - weather and hills are not a problem for me to get to your house. I have owned large dogs my entire life and regularly provide overnight care for my friend's Pomeranian. I am a youth pastor, chaplain, and dad - and someday soon a foster parent. I am punctual, reliable, and trustworthy. I will treat your dog as my own. I will honor and respect your home with full privacy and dignity - just as I would expect someone to treat mine.

Brian took excellent care of Milo! Very flexible about pickup and drop off times, even on Christmas. Definitely would book with him again.

Cooper had so much fun with Brian and Levi! Brian was extremely accommodating working out a drop off time. He sent me see several pictures during the day. Cooper got exercise and had lots of fun!! I will absolutely call Brian again!

I cannot say enough positive things about Brian's care for our dog, Sparkle. From the moment we arrived, Brian's home was a perfectly suited home for our dog. We have had bad pet sitters in the past and, believe me, our dog lets us know by the way she reacts. Our dog literally runs to Brian everytime he keeps her. The peace of mind we feel while away is well worth the price we pay, knowing our dog is safe and happy with Brian.

Brian took such good care of my dog! My chessie was always so tired when I got home from work and I could tell he had had a great day. I'm pretty sure Brian thinks he's part dog with how well he plays with dogs!
