Max loves dogs, dogs love Max!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name's Max. I'm a 25 year old NYU graduate who just moved to San Diego. I was ready for a break from my full-time projects in NY and am now in CA on an adventure and free to help! Back home in New York, I have three older sisters, three big dogs (two family dogs, one personally owned), and two amazingly adorable nephews named William and Henry. Molly (120lbs, female, 11 yrs old) and Johnny (80lbs, female, 7 yrs old) are pure bred German Shepherds, and my dog Loki (50lbs, female, 2 yrs old) who I adopted from the SPCA is a mixed bred German Shepard. Growing up, my family also had cats, fish, rabbits, gerbils, lizards, chickens, cows, and horses. In addition to caring for my own dog, I've been dog sitting my sister's dog Georgie (female, Golden Doodle, 50lbs) for the past five years. What do I miss most about being in New York? My pups, of course...don't tell my mom that though :-) Loki will be joining me in San Diego within a few weeks. I have experience with administering oral as well as injected medication. I also have experience caring for dogs with the following behaviors: Separation anxiety, aggression toward other dogs, aggression toward cats or other small animals, aggression toward people, leash aggression, food- or toy-possessive behavior, and leash pulling.

I have been a dog owner for my entire life and couldn't give Max a stronger recommendation as a trustworthy and warm caregiver for a dog. I've known him forever and he's kind and consistent. He's owned large dogs and tiny dogs and is so sweet with both. Animals and people are all drawn to Max-he's great and you'll be really glad you know him when you do. No hesitation on this one.

Max grew up in a household that always had at least two Dogs, two cats and a goldfish. We currently have three long hair female German Shepherds and a miniature poodle named Sunday. The youngest of the Shepherds is Max's dog Loki. She is a well behaved 3 year old . Max is great kid. Very responsible and very respectful. He's an NYU graduate and is out in calif applying to business schools. You can be confident that Max will take great care of your pet. I'm proud to be his Dad. Marshall Knopf

Max is a great guy who is smart, funny, and caring. I've gotten to know Max over many years while playing with his 5 family dogs on the banks of the Navesink River in NJ. His love for them lead to his rescue of Loki, his beautiful german/collie mix. You are guaranteed to come home finding hI'm cuddling your pup(s), so don't get too jealous!

Max grew up with German shepards, poodles, rabbits, hamsters and birds. He loves animals and takes good care of them. You will be happy with his service because he is responsible, timely and a really nice guy!
