I work from home as a writer, so my schedule is super flexible. I’m usually at my desk in the mornings, and I love taking breaks to walk or run throughout the day—it clears my head and helps the writing flow.

Safety, trust & environment

How do you care for pets in your home and/or your client's home? Whether I’m in your home or mine, my focus is always on making your pet feel safe, loved, and at ease. I take the time to learn their routine—meal times, walks, play, and any special needs—so I can keep things consistent and low-stress. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and attentive to details. I follow instructions to the letter and always clean up after myself (and your pet!). I’ll check in regularly with updates and photos, so you never feel out of the loop. If I’m caring for a dog in my apartment, they’ll have a calm, cozy environment, supervised access to a secure balcony for fresh air, and plenty of love and attention. Walks, playtime, and snuggles are all included.

Information Maxwell R. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know what your dog wants or needs to feel fully safe and cared for when I'm taking care of them. That's the most important question. Also curious about what their interests are, how long they like to walk for, favorite snacks, etc.

A typical day

I love going to the park with them if one is close by, lots of walks. Photoshoots, sending their owners updates on how their dogs are doing. Love to make sure they have access to their favorite toys and snacks and are staying hydrated in these hot summer months. Anything for them to be having a great time.

Your dog’s favorite human!

Pet care experience

Hello Pet Parents 🐶🐕🐩🐕‍🦺🐾🦴 My name is Max and I’m a lifelong dog lover with a calm, grounded energy. I’d love to be your dog’s new best friend! I truly love getting my steps in (at least 10k a day, lol) and dogs, so walking dogs is the perfect life for me. I know how much dogs mean to me, how close I am with mine, and how much trust is put in someone when they let a stranger walk their dog. I’m reliable, considerate, and have a deep love for dogs and their owners!, I"m also a great photographer and love taking dog pictures. I've worked with dogs of all ages—from high-energy puppies who need structure and play, to sweet senior dogs who move at their own pace and need extra gentleness. I’m patient, communicative, and I take my role seriously: your dog’s safety and happiness come first. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own and I’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Maxwell was reliable, on time, sent pictures, and most of all was caring with my senior pup. I looked forward to booking Maxwell again.
