Animal lover working from home 24/7

Pet care experience

Genuine animal lover! Rates are higher the months I work from home, because you’re paying for what type of higher quality service you’ll be receiving. Your pet will have my full love and attention throughout every hour of every day, whether they need extra attention, love, cuddles, playtime, exercise, training, etc. There’s Rover sitters who charge less than I do however they do this part time while multitasking with a 9-5 day job. Let’s be honest, what’s the point of paying someone to care for your pet, if your pet’s going to be alone from 8:30am to 5:30pm?? With me your pet will have my attention, care, and love 24/7. Which is what my clients love! Along with the fact that I live within walking distance to a park that I take all my client’s pets to for sufficient amounts of daily exercise unless of course the owners prefer their pets to not run around in a fenced in area outdoors. Satisfaction guaranteed with my services! Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member!!!

Max, my golden doodle, has stayed with Garret multiple times. I can't say how much peace of mind I have - daily videos, parks nearby, and lots of love. Max is always well cared for and happy. Growing up, I remember dropping my family dog off at places, and there was always a sense of anxiety. Quite the opposite here, Max runs right up to the door and can't wait!

This is the third time Garrett has taken care of our dog, Jane. He is a true dog lover and treats Jane as his own. His dog, Archie and Jane have become great pals. Going to Garrett's is a treat for Jane - like her second home.

I cannot recommend Garrett highly enough! He was friendly and professional. He sent texts, pictures and videos every day so I knew my puppy was being well taken care of, and I could enjoy my vacation without needing to worry about her. Garrett has extensive knowledge of dog behaviour, and it is obvious how much he loves them! We will definitely be repeat clients!

We needed someone to take care of our special needs older dog overnight and were lucky to find Garrett. He was amazing with our Maggie, who was immediately comfortable with him. Garrett’s dog Archie was also very kind and patient. We would absolutely use Garrett services agin and highly recommend him!

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust is my primary priority when caring for your pet. As a dog dad myself, I understand that nothing’s more important than your pet’s safety, comfort, and ofcourse happiness. I work from home so your pet will be accompanied by me 24/7! So your pet will never be without company, love, bathroom breaks, attention, etc. I also live in a small apartment so it allows me to always keep an eye on any pets regardless if I’m at my computer or on a zoom call. There’s zero chance of your pet hypothetically being away from sight in another room or a basement potentially chewing on something inappropriate or dangerous for argument sake. There’s no where your pet will be that I won’t be near. I also live right next to a park where I walk all pets several times daily. The park has plenty of fenced in fields where all pets are able to run around, play fetch, get plenty of healthy exercise, etc. water and portable water bowls & treats are always brought with me as well! I’ll be sending photos & videos to any clients every few hours or whenever they request them to ensure 100% comfort with being away from there pets.

Information Garrett P. would like to know about your pet

Primary/necessary info is the pet or dog’s personality traits. Specifically whether the pet or dog is friendly vs. aggressive. Feel free to include whether they’re shy vs. outgoing. Energy levels like hyper/needs more exercise daily vs. low energy and needs more relaxation time daily. The more info the better, however how your dog interacts with other dogs is a must as I have one of the friendliest, gentlest, and lovable dogs to keep your dog or pup company and/or to run around and play with to exhume a healthy amount of daily exercise & energy. Feel free to message me with any questions at anytime.

A typical day

Huge supporter of lots of fresh air and exercise for dogs that require it. I live less than a quarter mile away from a park by the water that I walk my own dog to 2-3 times per day. The park obtains a fenced in area where I have all dogs run/play fetch together off any leashes where they are secure and are able to get plenty of healthy exercise. I have plenty of harnesses/dog sweaters/vests for every season. I can guarantee your dog will sleep soundly at night after the amount of energy and play/run time he/she endures throughout the average day being boarded with Archie and I. (See videos I’ve uploaded of our outdoor adventures of some of my previous rover pets I’ve cared for)

My schedule fits in beautifully! I work from home so your pet will have 24/7 company/love/affection/attentiveness etc. I also live in a small apartment so I can assure you, your dog will always be in my sights even if I’m potentially at my computer or on a zoom call.
