All About The Happy Ruff & Fluffs!

Pet care experience

Hello I'm Gary and I was born into my family and raised with a cat from the start for the first 11 years of my life (my older sister crossed the rainbow bridge at 19) and since then I've had many more cats starting from 5 months old, I've also had many fish, tree frogs, ferrets and a large family of rats. I've never personally owned dogs "yet", but I did grow up with many friends who've had many dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. So I definitely know what it takes and have the confidence to do what is needed to take to care of, love, respect and pay attention to pets of all types and their needs and desires to be happy and healthy and I can't wait to meet yours and help you help them to the best of my abilities!

Gary is always on time and you can immediately tell he is a professional dog walker. He dresses and handles my 60 lbs. dogs like a true alpha. He makes sure to keep them safe while walking them. My mother-in-law drove by him while he was walking out dogs and she told me he moved them aside (there is no sidewalk) and paid attention to his surroundings. He knows dog behavior so he teaches me about them and why they do what they do. Hands down a true and reliable dog walker.

Safety, trust & environment

I'm partially OCD and extremely attentative to details around me, so I'm able to notice mood changes or the needs of pets based on the clues they put out at times. I also perfer routines and usually stick exactly to them being part of my ocd to be efficient, orderly and for situations to run smoothly so everyone including the pets is happy and comfortable knowing they have my utmost attention and priority

Information Gary B. would like to know about your pet

Definitely let me know of your pet(s) normal temperament or if there are any special diet and needs or routines so I can try to stick very close to your babies habits so they don't get even more stressed from too big of changes. For a heads up, no worries if your pet is shy, moody and distant not usually liking people as during my life I've been known many times over to suprise the pet owners of those types being I'm super patient and attentive and many times I've ended up quickly making friends with the pets and they've opened up to cuddling and sitting on me which obviously shocks the owners of my accomplishments with time spent with their babies. Let me also know if your baby has any special toys they enjoy at home that they perfer or for the dogs are there any places they like to walk to or hangout at in the area/neighborhood so I know if allowed to frequent them spaces too or to understand why they may try to pull me that direction while on walks

A typical day

I'll enjoy getting to know your pets and every one of them is different in their own ways, so I'll do my best to stimulate them to keep them happy and active, as I want to do the same for myself so we'll be basically helping and working with eachother

My days are spent playing and cuddling with my current 15 yr old furball who loves constant attention but she has her independent times enjoying sleeping in the sunshine through the windows. I highly enjoy helping people and I absolutely love being around animals so why not do both and so putting myself out there to possibly help you when in need of some help taking care of your fur babies. I'm almost always available and even on weekends and holidays
