I currently am home as I finish my masters degree online so my daily schedule is fairly free. I workout and do part-time contract work when I am not doing schoolwork. I’m extremely flexible and will be willing to meet your needs as best as possible.

About Howard R.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Simply put, I treat the pets like they are my own. I ensure they are met with sufficient attention, exercise, nutrition, and safety while under my supervision. Minimizing stress is my biggest concern (my dog has separation anxiety so I know how it can be). I’ve found it helpful in the past to use my own dog as a bridge between myself and the client’s pet, as his presence tends to build confidence and reassurance.
Information Howard R. would like to know about your pet
Early communication is vital! If there is anything I should know please don’t hesitate to tell me ahead of time! I’m extremely understanding and flexible!
A typical day
A typical day with me looks the way a typical day does with you! My goal is to make the supervision as streamline as possible. Trying to keep routines the same and schedules in tack is huge for reducing stress.

Pet care experience
I’ve been a dog owner my entire life and have had experience owning other pets such as geckos, cats, and snakes. I’ve been a pet sitter for a little over two years. My true passion for pet sitting comes from my desire to be accompanied by them, dogs specifically. I work with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. Dogs of all backgrounds tend to gravitate towards me and I have never had any negative interactions. While studying for my undergrad, I was actually in charge of all the live animal specimens present on the University grounds. Feeding, exercise, and handling/care were done daily, which can explain my comfortability and familiarity with pet care.
Reviews
Super professional and friendly
High recommend Howie! He sent pictures, keep us informed on our house after a big storm. Loved all our fur babies
Howard R. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Howard took great care of Bella and our house. Will definitely ask for him in the future.
