Pet care experience

Reliable care for your best friend.

My name is Garrett, and I’m excited to get to know your pet. I have experience with both dog sitting and walking, and you can rely on me when you need someone to care for your best friend. I’m an active guy who enjoys spending quality time with animals... running, walking, fetching, hide and seeking, tug-of-war, napping on the couch, you name it. I have experience with caring for dogs of many different sizes and breeds. I have a 10-year old rat terrier who I’ve had by my side since she was just six weeks old. She keeps me active, and we’ve gone on quite a few memorable adventures together. My promise is that I will care for your friend as if they were my own Bailey Jean.

Garrett watched my two 65lb dogs (one blind) for several nights. He was great about sending regular updates and he left the house clean. Highly recommend!

Garrett was a lifesaver when my arrival was delayed by a night, I felt so secure and at ease with my dog staying with him, and I appreciate that he is always so understanding and flexible!

Garrett and his sweet dog Bailey were awesome with our cat and dog. He was communicative and sent great pictures. We will definitely be asking him to hang out with Dottie and Bella again soon!

We never have to worry when we leave our babies with Garret. He always takes such wonderful care of them and sends us plenty of photos and pupdates. Highly recommend!

Garrett was amazing with our two senior pups while we were gone for a long weekend. Our older girl requires a lot of extra attention (frequent potty trips, diapers at night, special boots for her walks, etc) and he was so gracious with all of it. We got lots of pictures and his communication and response time were amazing. We know both our dogs got awesome care and so much love while we were away!
