Dog lover at your service!

Pet care experience

I grew up in Lincoln Park and started walking neighbors' dogs when I was 10 years old. I kept the same clients until I moved to California after high school at which point I started to meet dogs and offer services through Rover. I grew up with a Saint Bernard and thus, I specialize in caring for large dogs. I love all dogs and like to go on long walks if they're up for it!

Hank was awesome. It’s clear he’s comfortable around dogs in general and large breeds specifically. He asked good questions that showed he is considerate of each dog’s needs and wanting to meet them where they’re at. I highly recommend him and will definitely be booking him again the next time I need a sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer dog sitting in the dog's home because that's where they're most comfortable. I'm very respectful of your space and let dog(s) feel comfortable in their space but can enforce boundaries if you prefer (eg. not allowed on furniture, certain time in a crate etc.)

Information Hank B. would like to know about your pet

I prefer big dogs. I like to know about any quirks or oddities that your dog might exhibit, if any, so that I can best support their wellbeing.

A typical day

I typically adjust to what your dog is used to and can take them to a dog park, for long walks or whatever they enjoy most. Dogs have different needs and I will respond to your idea of an ideal dog sitter.
