Reliable and experienced
Pet care experience
Grew up in a family with over a dozen dogs, taking responsibility for feeding and walking since 8 years of age. Have worked and lived with all dog sizes and personalities, from Dachsunds to Great Danes. Volunteered for several years as a dog walker at local Humane Society. I also volunteer each year at the boarding kennel owned and operated by my mother, who is a vet tech. I'm in good shape, so no issues with long walks or strong breeds. Current schedule allows for sitting and walking Friday - Sunday, with an option for Monday if needed. Also typically free for every holiday except Christmas. I am open to specific requests for how to care for your pet. Graduated from and work at MIT, and have no criminal history. I play a mean game of fetch.
Reviews
Max is always incredibly considerate when taking care of my frenchie, Julep. She has some anxiety and he makes her feel right at home. He always leaves the house better than I left it and is a rear communicator - highly recommend!
Max helped us out in a pinch with his agreement to swing by the house for a drop in visit. Max always has such great communication and utilized the “rover card” functionality which delivers pictures and a little map of their time together. Couldn’t ask for a better guy to save the day and cheer up a lonely pup.
Max stayed with our dog this past weekend and took just as wonderful care of the house as he did our pup. Consistent updates, photos, and clear communications made our time away worry free. This wasn’t the first time that Max helped us out and it certainly won’t be the last
Maxwell stayed at our house this past summer for a couple days to watch our 140lb dog, Merlin and our shy tabby cat, Gus. He has house-sat for us on numerous occasions and we always seem to curse Maxwell with sudden changes of plans or forgotten preparations, but his flexibility and communication have steered the situations to easy resolutions. Maxwell always provides the upmost professionalism in our exchanges (and plenty of pics!) and we feel blessed to have found such a responsible animal lover to help us out when we need to leave town. Maxwell is highly recommended for anyone looking for pet care in the area.
About Maxwell P.
Communication
Skills
Information Maxwell P. would like to know about your pet
Have no breed preferences, but would like to know a dog's age, breed, energy level, and any specific methods she uses to communicate intention to owner (i.e. barking means I have to go to the bathroom).
A typical day
I like playing fetch with dogs, and prefer walks in parks or grassy paths. If dog already has a walking itinerary, I will typically stick with that to keep her comfortable.
