I am currently taking time off from college (OU Oh Yeah!) and work a lot during the school year so am focusing on less rigid work this summer. I am very flexible as I will be doing odd jobs and don't have a weekly schedule!

Safety, trust & environment

I have training on cleaning and care taking through my mother who taught me with her own job experience. I have a disabled younger sister who I learned how to be very gentle with as well as helping her be gentle with the pets around her. I spend a lot of my free time cuddled up with my dogs Cashew and Crew or running around playing with them. I try to be aware at all times what their interests are so that I can be the best parent to them.

Information Max B. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know if the dog needs any special care like a senior dog or one that takes medication etc. so I can best take care of their health. The breed and size is helpful as well as what commands the dog knows, so I can ensure they are still being trained while the owner is away.

A typical day

I love to play with pets. If there isn't a yard at the owners house I will take them to an area for dogs so we can play freely like catch and chasing each other around. I like spending time outdoors as well as cooling off indoors and ensuring the dog doesn't ever overheat during warmer months.

Pet care experience

Hiya! I'm Max (: I adopted my first pet of my own when I was 8, but have lived with pets my whole life. I've watched friends and owners pets for them from puppies to seniors who need special care. I have experience with dogs with bladder problems and who need medication. I also have house sat and pet sat throughout the years. I have a strong love and passion for animals and their care!

Max was amazing!!! They came before their sitting to meet the pets, stayed with our 2 dogs and cats and provided updates throughout the stay. We were well assured our babies were cared for so we could thoroughly enjoy our vacation! Max even water my plants and scooped the litter box while we were gone! Above and beyond will def be our go to in the future!

Max did an amazing job house sitting our cats! They went above and beyond, watering our garden, and cleaning the house before we got back. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! Thank you Max!

Highly recommend Max watching your pets! I felt no stress during my vacation because I knew Max followed my both of my dogs’ special feeding plans and following my overall instructions.

Max has watched my pets numerous times as well as helped in my own pet sitting gigs. Every time they show incredibly care and compassion for the animals making sure to follow instructions left to a t.
