Hello there:) My name is Greg and animals have been in my life for as long as I can remember. I have been the proud human daddy for 2 dogs, 2 cats, 2 parrots, a handful of parakeets, 7 doves, 3 homing pigeons, 2 turtles, 2 frogs, and 2 snakes because I graduated from Noah’s Ark Preschool while eating a Noah’s Bagel. I have spent years training doves, parakeets, and a dog for a theater magic act/show. Throughout the years as a trainer and caretaker I have learned that animals respond well to the energy people give off. I LOVE developing a strong connection to anything living. Especially your pet! WHEN I have the pleasure to care for your pet I will always try my best to exude positive energy and to keep the environment near and around your pet in a state of neutral energy. This way your pet will be comfortable and know that he/she is safe and loved. Every time your fur baby looks at me, he/she will see a genuine smile on my face communicating that I am enjoying hanging out and that I am having a great time with them. I have over 24 years of experience in caring for animals. Gaining experience in this industry’s professional network, I have lent my service as an assistant to a full-time licensed mobile pet sitter, done collaborative work with a cat boarding hotel, and I have volunteered at the Oakland Animal Shelter. I believe that I have the ability to positively connect with animals on their level and can provide a rich, warm, and loving experience that will make them comfortable and loved while you, the pet parent, are away. I am quick thinking in case obstacles shall arise during a walk or a house sitting job. I am a small business owner that works primarily on the weekends so my week is open to maintain, take care of, nurture, and love your dog as if the dog was my own.
