Pet care experience

Experienced pet sitter, and trainer

Hi! My name is Garett. I’m a 24-year-old licensed Veterinary Technician with over 8 years of experience in veterinary medicine and 6 years of dog training experience. I truly enjoy working with animals and love welcoming new four-legged friends to spend time with me. I currently work from home in veterinary relief coordination, overseeing the North Texas region, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care. My personal dog, Dudley, will be 4 1/2 in April 2026. He is still full of energy and gets along well with dogs, cats, and just about everyone he meets. I currently split my time between an apartment and a home that I own with my partner. No matter which location we are at, your pet will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and lots of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. Even when we are at the apartment, I make sure dogs get outside often, stay active, and have room to be comfortable. We also usually make trips to the dog park every day or every other day.

Garrett was great to communicate with and was able to handle my high energy "puppy". We look forward to using him again many times in the future.

Pets

A typical day

Depending on your preference, I will usually take them up to mutts. Which is a local private dog park, I have a monthly membership there and they always have a blast. If you prefer they stay at the house, there’s plenty of activities for them to do here my own pet pets to keep them company. Just a cuddle bug and wants to chill, we can do that too!
