Information Dylan J. would like to know about your pet

All of the standard stuff: any allergies or things to avoid, feeding amount/times, bathroom frequency, exercise requests/limitations, special care instructions, or anything you think will help make your dogs stay more enjoyable.

A typical day

My dogs alternate between playing fetch or chasing each other around the back/side yards and lounging on the couch inside with an antler or rope toy. If your pup likes those things, great. If not, please let me know how I best keep them happy/entertained while they're missing you.

Pet care experience

I work remote and am home 24/7 with my 2 doodles allowing any dogs that stay to be attended to, plenty of room to run around, and friends to keep them occupied. I have had dogs most of my life and have always trained them myself to be very social, active, and friendly.

Dylan really is great, trustworthy and a good communicator. We really appreciated him taking care of our rambunctious, challenging dog so we could get away for the weekend.

Dylan was a true God send in accepting my last minute booking. So flexible and understanding during the entire stay. My pup normally won’t eat for anyone when I’m away and she ate full bowls of food both nights so I know she was having the best time! His pups are so friendly and Dylan is attentive, caring and kind to all the dogs. He sent me videos and pictures of Patch while I was away and kept me updated without any prompting. Very appreciative to find such a great sitter on short notice.

Dylan took great care of our girl while we were away for 5 days. He sent photos and communicated any needed or helpful information and responded quickly. Feedings and ear medicine given as instructed. Would definitely recommend!

I can't say enough positive things about Dylan. He accepted Joy last minute, the day before I was leaving for Zimbabwe for 3 weeks. He has a great outdoor setup for active dogs. She got to play with other dogs, which kept her stimulated. Dylan is a good pack leader and I witnessed the dogs responding well to him. If you have an active dog that needs stimulation, This is your guy and place.
