I have a few medical conditions I manage on my own that leave me unable to fill a normal job. This means that I have a lot of free time. Pet care can be my focus next to my health and has been most of my life. I cannot have animals where I stay now, so I would really love to extend my services and make some animal friends in the meantime.

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to feed, walk, and play with all of your animals, whether inside or out. I will bathe dogs up to 35 lbs (I'm sort of weak from being sick right now but I'm trying to manage this) and hopefully larger in the future. I can clip nails, treat wounds, and give medications.

Information Gavin B. would like to know about your pet

The only thing that I am concerned about are certain temperaments. I am a male and I know that can be an issue for some dogs. Let me know if they have a favorite treat or spot they like so that I can provide it and make them as comfortable as possible and show that I am a safe person.

A typical day

The specialty of course is tug of war, but I think I can throw a ball for as long as a dog will be entertained. Regular walks with all the stops, and lots of petting time.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals of all sorts almost my entire life. I have a strong personal connection to cats and dogs and have always had some of my own. I am the pet sitter of the family, and my friends also call me to come sit for their animals. I have references if needed.

Gavin is great with animals, we always use him as a Dog/House sitter when we go out of town on vacations. He follows our feeding and sleep schedules for our dogs. Never had an issue out of the three years he has been sitting for us.

I own two dogs and he is wonderful with them. He is a great caretaker of animals and willing to make sure they have whatever they need to be happy and well taken care of. I couldn't recommended anyone better to be responsible for animals.
