Pet care experience
Hello, My name is Gregory. Nice to meet you. My Lab mix pup is 13 years young and is a great dog to help other dogs get used to socializing. Her name is Sadie Sue. I've trained and cared for my own pup since she was 6 weeks old, but I've also cared for friends dogs when they leave town. This includes feeding, walking, getting extra exercise as needed, cleaning up after the pets, and distributing medications as needed. I've helped friends and family members train their dogs based on knowledge from the book "The Monks of New Skete" and following the teachings of Cesar Milan. My approach to any animal is one of a deep patience and calm allowing time for trust to be built between the pet and myself. I have a thorough system for ensuring pets get the medications they need at the times they need them and am able to stick to your pet's specific diet. I also have experience with some basic grooming like brushing and nail clipping.
Reviews
Greg watched my 15-year-old, delicate dog for almost a week this summer in his home. She has multiple medications that need to be timed with food and each other, plus supplements. She doesn't hear or see as well as she used to. She goes for short sniffing strolls rather than walks (requires patience). I knew she would be in caring, attentive hands with Greg - and she was! I was able to go on a trip and my delicate, sweet old dog was safe and comfortable while I was gone. I am very grateful to Greg. It's a relief and comfort know I have the option of leaving her with Greg, especially because of her aging needs and my reluctance to leave her at this time. 10/10, look forward to leaving her with Greg again! Would you also come visit my cat next time!?
Greg is one of the best dog dads I know. He treats his dog Sadie Sue with kindness and attentiveness to her needs. I’ve often trusted him to watch over my dog and have never doubted my dog was getting the best care. I highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced yard where Sadie hangs out all day as she loves the sun. Pets are welcome inside at any point in the day if that's what they prefer. And if they feel safest in a crate, I am happy to let them hang out in their cave for some peace and quiet. But there are many dog beds inside that your pet will be welcome on as well as our big cozy couch. In our house, pets DO NOT get any human food. When pet sitting, adhering to the rules of the house will be most important as I know how hard it can be to break a bad habit that comes from a pet sitter.

What allergies your pet might have? What they're temperament is like when around other dogs and on a leash? And what their regular schedule is like?
A typical day
We are a pretty active household and our pups life is the same. We walk at least twice a day with hikes often being the third walk in a day. We like to hang out and swim in the river when it's warm and the water is safe. But the Chuck-It is the favorite toy around here with the frisbee in a close second and snowballs being a close third.
