Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make it a priority to provide dependable, consistent care. My availability varies somewhat throughout the week, but I keep my calendar updated and communicate clearly about scheduling. Whether your pet needs a daily walk, a drop-in visit, or overnight care, I strive to provide the same attention and routine they’re accustomed to while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine and environment. I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and any household guidelines closely. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, triggers, and comfort level. I believe clear communication and respect for both your home and your pet are essential to building trust.

Information Harrison B. would like to know about your pet

Before a booking, I’d love to know about your pet’s routine, personality, medical needs, and any behaviors that help them feel safe and comfortable. Please let me know about any medications, dietary restrictions, fears, reactivity toward people or other animals, escape tendencies, or special care instructions. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide a safe, positive, and low-stress experience for your pet while you’re away.

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to their age, energy level, and personality. That might mean long walks and outdoor adventures for an energetic dog, play sessions and enrichment activities for a curious pet, or simply companionship and gentle attention for a senior animal. I enjoy engaging pets both physically and mentally while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout the day.

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for animals for over 15 years through pet sitting, dog walking, and helping friends, family, and clients care for their beloved companions. I understand that pets are family, and I approach every animal with patience, respect, and genuine affection. My background in caregiving has taught me the importance of reliability, communication, and paying close attention to individual needs. Every animal has their own personality, routines, and comfort level, and I take the time to get to know them as individuals. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or needs a little extra support, I’ll meet them where they are. When caring for your pet, my priorities are safety, consistency, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while you’re away. I believe in providing attentive care, clear communication, and regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your companion is in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

I own a cat thay Harrison often sits for when I am gone for work or out of town. He is very sweet and gentle with my little Georgie. Geroge and Harrison have bonded so closly George gets excited everytime Harrison comes over. Because of this I have come close with Harrison and often have him come over for kittay play dates even when I am in town. He always makes sure George has an appropriate amount of food and new water when he leaves. He will text me before comong over so I know someone is on my home. Which for me is a nice piece of mind. Instead of wondering of someone made it over. Harrison is a sweet, loving human that cares for all creatures. He takes him time and makes sure the animal feel safe and cared for.

Harrison has always had a gentle and kind way with animals. He can be trusted implicitly to give your fur babies the love and care they need and deserve.

I have known Harrison to always be a caring and loving individual towards animals and others. He has such a gentle way about him and I've observed my own dogs be drawn to him with his gentle and patient spirit. He is also very empathetic and someone who I would trust alone with my dog and in coming to my home. ROVER would be lucky to have him as part of their team . 🐾

Harrison is an avid animal lover and most excellent animal care giver. He has attended to 2 of our dogs and we have referred him to countless friends and family for pet sitting services. Kind, attentive and sweet-just what one wants for their pet when not together!
