Lived most of my life with pets
Pet care experience
I fondly remember all my childhood household dogs, Tessie, Mozart, Xena, Eddie, Harvey, U2, and Dozer. I've also lived with roommates with great dogs and cats. I move too often to own a dog myself but while I'm here I would love to care for other people's furry family members! I have done housesitting for people's dogs, cats, and chickens. My favorite breeds are Shiba Inu, Australian Shepard, and Malamute to name a few, but I love all dogs and cats equally. I love spending time with animals and even lived on a ranch for a time as a child, spending time with sheep, goats, cows, and even learned to ride horses. I will provide the utmost care for your animals and have fun spending time with them. Pets are a very special part of our lives and should be treated as such.
Reviews
Garrison D. is a great reliable and trustworthy friend. He has watched and played with our high energy Australian Shepherd, Milo on multiple occasions. He has always played with her very well, and she has always gotten along great with him. I would highly recommend him to watch anyone’s dog.
Garrison started as a coworker of mine and quickly became one of my best friends, and has been for the last 14 years. He is not only intelligent, but patient, kind and gentle with animals, including my own dog Rollo, a 115 lb red Alaskan Malamute. He often took care of Rollo when I was working 2 towns away due to my very long commute and was always great with him as verified by my own eyes due to my Furbo dog camera. I would recommend his as much as anyone out there.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I take great pride in caring for people's pets and will follow any special instructions given and agreed upon beforehand, and in absence of specific instruction I will use my many years of experience living with animals to provide the best care possible!
Information Garrison D. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs and particular likes/dislikes (good with other dogs? cats? etc.) and/or dietary needs. E.g. if they need to be given medicine, can I hide it in a piece of cheese, or should I use another food? Please provide the food in this scenario.
A typical day
I love going on long walks in beautiful parks like Green Lake, playing fetch in a dog park, or just giving them pets and affirmation as we relax.
