Highlights
Pet care experience
Trustworthy & always punctual
I have spent all 27 years of my life with multiple dogs of multiple breeds in my household. I have tons of experiences raising, training, and caring for animals. In 2016 and 2017 I was awarded the Presidential Volunteer Service Award (Gold) for my volunteer work at local animal shelters amasing over 500 hours of volunteer work caring, feeding, walking, and cleaning up after dogs, cats, pigs, etc. I also received 8 letters of appreciation for the work I did for these shelters. When you walk into my home you will find a healthy and clean envionment while being introduced by two healthy and well-trained dogs, Lola and Creed. I am also a U.S. Marine and have been for over 8 years so I natually have a reputation of being trustworthy, punctual, and detail oriented. When I work with your belove pets you can expect them to be treated like they are my own kids!

Ratings and reviews
Gavin and his wife always goes above and beyond. They are always there for us when we need them last minute and take great care of our dog when we are away.
He was great with communication. We will be requesting him again in the future.
Gavin took us last minute on a holiday weekend which was so incredibly nice. He dropped in multiple times a day and punctual and very caring. Communication was great and we look forward to using him in the future. Thanks so much Gavin. My husband and I really appreciate your help.
We used Gavin for our three dogs over thanksgiving and he was great! Kept me updated and made sure to entertain my pups while we were gone. Will definitely use again!
It was my first time ever using Rover and the experience was great! Gavin was great with both of my dogs. You can tell right away Gavin loves dogs because both of my dogs sensed it right away by going up to him to get belly rubs without any issues. I would definitely be reaching to Gavin again.
We have hesitated for a while to take time to go out of town without our fur babies, just because it's hard to leave your loved ones with a stranger. We have used Rover once before for our Maximus and well that left so much of a bad taste in our mouth we were afraid of leaving him with anyone else. We came across Gavin's profile and read the reviews and thought ok well he has much experience with a pitbull and he shows how well he takes care of his fur babies of his own. I recommend always to make sure you have a meet up to introduce your dog with the sitter and from that moment when Max met Gavin he right away was warmed to him. You could see the ease of Maximus and Gavin with meeting each other and seeing his surroundings that he would be staying in. We stressed with Gavin our previous experience and that we wanted to receive photos and updates as much as could possible and that Gavin did. He took Maximus out for walks and runs and let him have some alone time in the yard, keeping him safe and cautious to not let the dogs interact to avoid any confrontation. As the days went by while we were away, we felt more at ease and less stressed knowing that he was in good care. We were so impressed with his care for Maximus and keeping us informed we asked if we could keep him for future sittings as long as he was comfortable too. We can't thank Gavin enough for all the TLC that he gave to our Maximus and well Maximus thanks him too. We definitely would recommend Gavin to anyone but would for sure keep him for ourselves (:
