Pet care experience
I’ve been raising dogs in my family since I was seven years old. My first job as a kid was dog walking in the neighborhood, and I haven’t stopped since! And now, for the first time in a long time, I am in need of some new four-legged friends! I’m new to the Santa Monica area, less than a year removed from graduating college, and I have the type of energy you need in a dog walker. I am friendly, outgoing, adventurous, and most importantly, patient. I live in a house with plenty of room for your pet to be comfortable, in the case of overnight boarding. And I live a quarter mile from a park where I can get your dog all the excercise it needs.

NOT A GOOD SITTER!!!! Do not trust sitter with your dogs life!!!! IRRESPONSIBLE!!!! I met with Griffin shortly a week before I planned to go on a trip. He said he just watched another dog before and he had a great time. His home reminded me of a frat house; clutter and college fresh. He and Reggie met, he wasn’t with warmest with Reggie but nice and I’d only be gone for a few days. I dropped Reggie off before my flight. Griffins friends were over and we said hello. 2 hours after dropping Reggie off and 20 minutes before my flight, Griffin text me saying that watching my dog wouldn’t work for him because Reggie had gotten into his friends pill bottle and was chewing on it and he had also pooped in his home. Animals do nervously poop (especially when in a new environment), although Griffin did not have the compassion or bandwitdth to understand or see that, not did he want to offer patience and kindness to this dog in this new space. What worried me most about this whole thing, was that my dog had somehow gotten into a pill bottle and Griffin was mad nor concerned not for my dogs safety, not did he even broach that topic, he was more upset that my dog had gotten into his friends pill bottle. This then told me that he was not supervising my dog in the first vital hours of my dogs stay to acclimatize him, nor was he giving him the love/attention, I so think every animal in a new environment so deserves. A pill bottle??? You’re worried about your friends? LOL. I recommend finding a different sitter ASAP if you care about your pets wellbeing.
Thank you so much Griffin P. for taking such great care of Fred. I appreciate you kind, professionalism and accommodating. Thank you for sending photos and keeping me updated. Definitely will contact you again the next time I need a sitter. I would also recommend my friends to you as well.
My doggie automatically felt comfortable with Griffin and had a great time! You can see he has a genuine love be for dogs. I received updates and pics and I would definitely use him again!
Griffin is kind, gentle and reliable. He shows up on time and goes above and beyond to make people (and pets) happy. He is trustworthy and most of all he loves pets of all kinds.
