Experienced sitter and walker!
Pet care experience
We got our first family dog when I was 11—Mickey, a glorious meatloaf of a hound—and between him and our vast constellation of dog-lover friends, I spent a childhood around those creatures. It was at 23, and a fresh college graduate, that I got Finley, who's proceeded to teach me everything there is about life you learn after college. Since then, I've dog-sat for friends all kinds of canines, from senior and diabetic dogs to high-energy pups. I've worked with people-friendly pooches as well as people-wary ones, and genuinely only hope to meet any dog on their level. Finley and I completed three years of training at our local shelter, Adopt-a-Pet, and I'm proficient and comfortable walking any kind of dog on a leash, any where they're used to walking.
Reviews
Frank is amazing!! We booked Frank’s services to care for our large, energetic dog and stay in our home for a week over Christmas. We returned to an immaculate house and a relaxed, happy pup. By far the best caretaker we have had to date! We highly recommend Frank to others and look forward to working with him in the future.
Frank was an absolutely pleasure to work with and made our first experience on Rover perfect! He is punctual, polite and the pets seemed to have loved him.
Frank is a wonderful and responsible person. He has taken excellent care of his family dog for years, training him to be a great dog. I’m sure he would be a highly responsible dog walker for all pets, giving them the attention they need and owners want. I have personally seen him with many different pets and he has had an excellent relationship with them all.
Frank is an incredibly loving caretaker of pups. He often watches my high-energy dog and is patient and skilled at redirecting his energy and creating a good playdate. He's a responsible and loving dog owner and your dog could not be in better hands.

I'm not in a position to board currently, but am happy to dog-sit (or cat-sit!) on-property if that's most convenient for you and your loved one! I've done this for myriad people in my life (references available) and can complete any other household tasks you might need while you're away, from bringing in the mail to watering plants.
Information Frank F. would like to know about your pet
Let me know about your pooch! I think the best care we can provide each other (and not only to each others' pets!) comes from listening rather than assuming we know best.
A typical day
Mostly, I like to listen to you and what you would hope for your pet's day! We can take long walks locally or at a nearby park, and can get as much stimulus as your pet is used to and comfortable with.

I'm currently a student (two nights a week) and writer (whenever I need to do it!), so I'll have plenty of time to adapt to you and your pet's specific schedules. Whether that means early morning walks or long afternoon ones, I'm happy to learn, listen, and oblige!
