Professional Animal Care Specialist

Pet care experience

Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog owner and animal lover who is following my passion for dog walking and pet care. I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals and have 10 years of experience as a dog walker, trainer, house sitter and foster parent throughout my life. I've even managed a dog walking company for nearly 4 years back in my hometown of Baltimore, MD. I have worked with most breeds in some form and have many hours of information and training under my belt. Most importantly though, I am an extremely safe and cautious walker who pays great attention to detail. Each pet is different and has a unique personality, and I know that there is no one specific method that works universally for every pet. I will never put your pet in an uncomfortable situation and will always be honest and forthcoming about our walks and your dog’s behavior during each session! I care for each furry companion as if they were my own, and safety is always my number one priority. I’m punctual and trustworthy, and can guarantee that your pet will be happy, healthy, and taken care of while you are away. I’m also very responsive and will check-in with you whenever or wherever I am to make sure that you know exactly what we are up to. In addition to my pet related skills, personally I am a fun loving, energetic person who cares deeply about the relationship between people and their furry family members. I love music, hiking and camping in the outdoors, meeting new people and living a healthy lifestyle. I look forward to meeting you and your pet, and getting them outside in the warm California sun!

I'm so sorry that Mac is leaving. Dafka will miss him. It's obvious that Mac loves dogs! We wish him the best in his move.

MAC was great! Quick and fast! He also walked a good distance in the hour he wakes my Odin!

Mac was great. He showed up on time and Dafka was worn out when he came back which is just what I want. Thank you, Mac.

Mac is the best! He is a true dog lover and super friendly/personable. He is always very responsive and is super dependable. He even sends "pupdates" & pics which are fun to get. You and your doggos will be big fans!

Information Mac B. would like to know about your pet

- I work with all breeds and temperaments of dog. No preferences at all, although I'm a sucker for labrador and golden retrievers because I had them growing up.

A typical day

- For shorter sessions, I will map out a good neighborhood route beforehand or will take them to the closest dog-friendly hiking path, park, or natural area. I enjoy getting away from urban areas if possible and getting the dogs out in nature. - For longer sessions, I will plan to take the dog to a nearby hiking area or dog-friendly natural area
