Pet care experience

I began as a dog-sitting hobbyist and gained a reputation right away for being a passionate, curious and responsible lover of dogs and turned it into my new calling. I love to walk, hike and exercise a dog until they're properly tired out, which I've learned is like a cure-all for most of our four-legged friends; an absolute antidote for their behavioral issues and occasional anxiety. I've loved and laughed with other people's dogs all over the world: from Brooklyn to Los Angeles, Minneapolis to Miami, Costa Rica to Dubai. I grew up with a min-pin in Athens, Georgia as a young boy and that planted the seed that I still revert to all the time: dogs are magical creatures -- they deserve our time, they deserve our attention, and they deserve our love.

Hugh has been walking our dog, Rose, when I am at work. He is so wonderful! Our dog needs lots of exercise and Hugh has been giving her great walks/jogs around the neighborhood. He is both professional and kind. Rose loves him!

Hugh is the absolute dog walker! He genuinely loves dogs, which is evident anytime you see him with a furry friend. He is very professional: punctual, reliable, organized and trustworthy. He is friendly, thoughtful and responds quickly to requests. My pup gets so excited whenever he sees Hugh!

Hugh has cared for our Aussie, Lucy, many times. He is caring, fun and really in tune with animals. Hugh is very responsible and totally trustworthy. And did I mention fun? He is a wonderful pet sitter who goes above and beyond.
