Information Gilbert S. would like to know about your pet

Ideally, I would like to know if the pup is house trained and what's their energy levels so I know how often to take them out and how long. Happy to care for little puppies as long as they are house trained.

A typical day

I like taking pups on long walks around Jamaica Pond or Brookline reservoir. I often take my dog on a 6-7 mile run around the area every other day, expect for hot summer days. Alternatively, I like going to the Brookline Avenue playground which is a large dog park/athletic field.

Pet care experience

I've had pets since I was 11 and dogs since I was 19 and I love taking care of them. I currently have a cheerful and playful dog called Milo - he has been my companion fro 5 years. I currently work full-time but live a 15-min walk away from home so I am able to go back home mid-day to check on my pup. Generally more devoted to long nature walks and runs with dogs over the weekend. I live in a studio apartment where dogs are allowed to wander freely. Happy to crate your pup if you wish so. Outside I keep them on the leash unless they're in the dog park. I live within a 5-min walking distance from the Brookline Avenue Playground/Dog Park.

Gilbert was wonderful, and helped save our vacation when our original sitters had to cancel. He was very responsive and took good care of our dog.

Gilbert is our favorite dog sitter to date! He is incredibly friendly and accommodating and always sends adorable pictures of Tobi having a blast. We feel so relieved to know she has so much fun when we are traveling!

Gilbert was a fantastic dog sitter for us! Our pup Tobi had a blast with him and was totally comfortable from the get go. He sent lots of pics, had excellent communication and took her on long walks so we knew she had a great experience.

Gilbert was absolutely fantastic! We were in a last minute pinch and he watched our dog for the day and ensured she was well taken care of and walked. Our dog was very happy upon pick up, and Gilbert was super responsive and flexible with timing of drop off and pick up.
