I am home on most weekends and can take your pup out on the adventures so they’re not stuck inside all day. I’ve a dog of my own and he’s very social and gets along with all types of dogs. He’s a 6 year old beagle mix and is a sweetheart. But if your dog would prefer to relax inside, that is fine with us too.

My dog gets along with all breeds, except for Chihuahuas. Other than that, very flexible on preference. We have watched all sizes and looking forward to taking care of yours. Please be potty trained.

A typical day

There are plenty of options when it comes to trails or dog parks in this area. My immediate neighborhood is also very pet friendly, so many chances to run into other dogs for socializing. But we can always avoid in case your dog is shy or nervous around others.

I work remotely from home on Fridays. I typically take my dog out several times a day. He’s very active, so I need to burn that energy!

Gaurav was wonderful with Murphy! Was affectionate, attentive, and followed the directions I gave him without any issues. Murphy warmed up to him immediately which shows me that this is a decent guy with good calm energy and that’s all I can hope for with a new sitter. I am grateful he was available last minute this time but I’ll definitely be using him again in the future!

We highly recommend Gaurav! He took great care of Max and gave daily updates and pictures. His communication for pickup and drop off was great and easy to coordinate. He even gifted Max his favorite toy from his visit! His dog Mac also got along great with ours!
