I give dogs the joy they give me
Pet care experience
For the last five years of my family dog's life I was his primary caretaker. Beyond an endearing pet I had for 16 years, he was a best friend. I walked him 3-4 times a day, played with him, made him special food, and made sure he always had a reason to feel happy and loved. Last summer, before going to Italy to teach English for the school year, I gained plenty of valuable experience dog sitting, cat sitting, and house sitting and enjoyed every moment of it. I've also grown up my whole life with cats, one of which was a dear friend who was always by my side as I turned from a boy to an adult. I had the strongest kinship with him among my family members in the house. In short, as you see in my title, I can guarantee that I will do my best to give your pets as much as joy as they give me.
Reviews
Great person to trust your loving pet with. He gives constant updates and he really provide a sense of confident with your dog being home with him. Will book with him again!
Garrett was an absolute life saver. We contacted him on super short notice to watch our girl Simcoe for a long weekend. He was very communicative and sent lots of pics and notes. He took wonderful care of our girl and our home. I hope he can dog/house sit for us again!
Garrett was absolutely amazing! There is nothing better then having my furry babies at home and being so well taken care of! It has taken me a long time to replace my past dog sitter, but I have finally found someone just as picky as me! Garrett can put you in touch with me if you want more information!

Safety, trust & environment
I'm only at ease if I know the pets are at ease and have everything they need. I make sure they receive the attention they require. As long as they're under my care you rest assured they will be safe, sound and happy.

Information Garrett L. would like to know about your pet
The more information I know about your pets' needs and preferences the better. I do my best to keep them in mind and satisfy all of them. This includes favorites toys, favorite times to eat, favorite games to play, favorite places to walk around the neighborhood, any special assistance they require, things to avoid doing, etc. Let me know as much as is necessary!
A typical day
I love walking as much as I love dogs. I have been running/walking on the Loch Raven trails regularly for 8 years, so I know them very well. I'd be happy to bring your dog there (I have a car with enough space for one big dog or two small ones). Otherwise, I'm open to what you think is best for your dog. I absolutely love playing with dogs and would be happy to do so at your house, at my house, or in a public place like a park.

Availability
Right now my schedule is completely open. I recently returned from teaching English in Italy and will be going to do the same in Spain in October. If I can substitute a part-time job with pet/house sitting this summer that would be ideal.
