Dogs have been a very important part of my life since the day I was born. I have a deep love for all animals, big and small, feathered, furry and scaly, and have always known from a young age I would work with them as an adult in one way or another. Dog sitting is basically my dream job and I couldn't be happier to take care of your furry friends! My goal for your dog's stay is to make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and of course happy! I live in a quiet neighborhood with a backyard near Stern Grover Park and all dogs receive daily walks around the neighborhood and frequent trips to Stern Grove park as well as ocean beach (if that's okay with you). they will also have plenty of home playtime and attention. If your dog is older or otherwise limited physically I am just as happy to spend time with them at home and ensure their utmost comfort. I will usually put your dog's bed right next to my bed so they can sleep right next to me if they want. When your dog is here they are a part of our family and will always be treated as such! I am also happy to assist with medication and any special needs your dog may require. Here is a little bit about me: My name is Max, I just turned 25 years old and I'm a recent graduate from SFSU. I was born and raised in France, and have grown up with dogs my whole life. Growing up I had a Schnauzer and a Maltese that stayed in France with my family, when I moved in the US about 6 years ago to study. I did adopt a golden doodle in Santa Barbara about 6 years ago, and he has became my best friend! I'm attentive, reliable and more importantly I will follow your instructions as I understand your dog has specific needs and a routine. I currently work from home as a musician/sound engineer so I am generally home 24/7 with the exception of the occasional errand, so your dog will never be alone. Your dog will always be in good hands and will get lots of attention, playtime, love and cuddles.
