Highlights
Pet care experience
Denver Dog (ex) Dad
I recently had to say goodbye to my soul dog on 06/09/26. We found each other when I was working at the Longmont Humane Society in college, and I had the honor of spending the next 12 years with the best friend I’d ever know. Now I’d love the opportunity to open up my home to watch new dogs until I am ready to find my soul dog #2. I had my dog Dexter from his age of 4 to the old age of 16. So I have experience with all energy levels of dogs, as well as dogs that need medication and a little extra attention.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Garrett has been my go-to guy to watch my pup Maverick (an active, 50lb lab mix who can be a little needy). He takes great care of her - providing plenty of long walks and snuggles. I receive photos throughout the day, giving me a piece of mind while I am out of town. I couldn't recommend Garrett enough! 11/10 :)
If you can trust anyone on Earth with your pet, it’s Garrett. Garrett adores animals more than anyone I’ve ever met. I’ve known him for 15 years and can easily vouch for his love and care for animals. He adopted the sweetest pitbull while working at the Humane Society during college, which inspired me to rescue my own pitty 10 years ago. He has cared for my baby, and cares for all animals, as he would care for a child - with love, care, and respect. He has experience with puppies, seniors, and reactive pups. 10/10 wouldn’t recommend anyone over than Garrett. PSas experience with puppies, seniors, reactive pups

Schedule
I work from home, and work for myself so I have a very flexible and accommodating schedule. My previous routine with my dog was 2 walks a day, in the morning and evening. So it would be great to get those walks going again! I have a dog friendly house, with a small but functional backyard and small grassy front yard. I live 2 blocks from City Park, so always happy to go for a lap if that’s up to your dogs liking. Or if they are an around the block and back dog, we love that too.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I’ll love your dog like my own. After loosing mine, it would be lovely to hear the pitter patter of a dog roaming around the house, sleeping, and even a little barking.
A typical day
Of course it depends on the dog. Long walks, short walks, park walks, city walks, maybe even mountain walks. If the dog likes to bake in the sun, my backyard has a perfect dog bed for that as well.
