Big, fenced yard! I love them all!!
Pet care experience
I've had dogs my entire life and am defunitely the fella at the party who would much rather scratch some dog tummies than talk to humans 🤣 My sweet boy went to doggy heaven in August of 2023 at the ripe old age of 15 and now I have a prime doggy location but no doggy! I work as a musician, so my longest "shift" is 3 hours, and they are almost always in the evenings, when my lovely girlfriend is home if, indeed, the doggies need attention while I'm gone! I'm experienced with senior dogs, medication (even the not-so-fun to give kinds), separation anxiety doggies, and though I've never actually raised a puppy of my own (the late, great Bo was 1 when I adopted him), I've had 2 roomates that got puppies while I lived with them, knowing I was willing and able to help 😎. Cheers!
Reviews
I highly recommend Gary as a dogsitter. He was very easy to communicate with and responsive throughout the week I was out of town. He clearly loves dogs and my dog Copper seemed to have a great time with him.
Gary was wonderful with my pup, Calvin. Sent updates and photos regularly. Was never worried while traveling about Calvin which was a huge plus. Will be my top pick for a dog sitter when traveling moving forward. Great guy and loves your dog like it was his own.
Gary was amazing with our two pups! He sent us updates to check in and gave them lots of love and walks! Would recommend him if you are looking for a sitter, we will definitely be using him again!!
Gary was great! He sent me tons of pictures and videos. My pup came come so tired from their exciting day!

At my own home, I have a pretty good amount of space (especially the yard), and a great girlfriend who is more than willing to lend me a hand when needed, and is as much of a dog lover as I am. My dog slept in my room with me either on my couch or my bed and yours is welcome to do the same. I can also kennel them in the "dog room," if they prefer to sleep in their dens! Really, the dogs can be anywhere in my home, any time.

Information Gary F. would like to know about your pet
I really do like all dogs and, humility aside, I really am always the fella who people say "wow he normally doesn't like people and he loves you" too, regarding their dogs ?!
A typical day
I like walking, with or without dogs, so we will definitely start the mornings on a juicy leashed walk, but I also have a big fenced in yard where the pooches like to sunbathe and play fetch and are welcome to do so literally all day.

Availability
My only commitments outside of my home are gigs, as I am a musician, but none of these result in more than 3 or 4 hours away from home, and Ill communicate when those are.
