Experienced hiker, lover of animals

Pet care experience

I’ve had dogs my entire life, and have proudly raised my Mayflower (16 year old Boston terrier) since I was 12 years old. I see all dogs as our best friends and family and will care for your dogs with the same love and dedication that I care for mine. I am an incredibly active person, I spend my spare time backpacking and hiking and love to bring my dogs with me on my weekend camping trips. My dogs are my world, and I think all dogs deserve to be surrounded by loving people even if I’m just a dog sitter! I can’t wait to meet your pups and dogs and make more amazing dog friendships! Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet you soon

Max was an awesome house/pet sitter! Everything was left clean and dog and cats were so calm when we got back which means they were so well taken care of they didn't miss us at all. Max sent us daily updates and pictures that made our vacation calmer too!
