Max is a wonderfully kind and loving person. While I have not hired him to watch our dog (we are currently dog-less), I have observed him with his own pet before she died. He always treated her gently and kindly, was very responsible with her safety and well-being, and enjoyed just being with her. Max also helped a fellow neighbor from time to time with their chocolate lab. Eli (dog) adored Max, as Max went above the expected "let him out and feed him" duties. He actually spent time with the dog, tossing a toy or going on unexpected walks. You will not find anyone more reliable, responsible, and trustworthy than Max. Dogs have a sixth sense about people, and they seem to love him!
