I love all animals!

Pet care experience

I've had pets my entire life. I've owned everything from a Savannah monitor to an entire salt water aquarium. I've hatched sharks and bred Goldendoodles for 3 years. I currently own a Standard poodle 🐩 named Lucy. She's my pride and joy. What else sets me aside from everyone else? Well, I have experience in training my own service dog and I provide constant updates!

Gary was a great pet sitter and our goldens love having him watch them. He was very thoughtful and loving with our boys. He was responsive and sent plenty of pictures. He did well under pressure when our boys accidentally walked through a bunch of ticks. He spent hours picking the ticks off and washing the dogs! Not a tick was found the next day when we came home.

Gary went over and beyond. He is a rare breed, himself.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and trust is important for everyone. I think the key to being trustworthy as well as providing a safe and friendly environment is consistency, compassion and humility. I always respect the owners boundaries and do my best to keep your pet and home in the exact condition you left it in.

Information Gary J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance about special feeding methods and medications that may be needed to ensure your dog gets the best care. It's also important to keep me informed if the dog is spayed/ neutered and if its up to date on its vaccinations or had a recent shot and/or medical procedure.

A typical day

A typical day with me and my dog consist of going for walks. Doing a few sessions of training and lots of adventures. I often take my dogs out to eat with me, on hikes and swimming in the summer. I treat all the dogs I watch as if they were my own.
