Grad student who loves Dogs!

Pet care experience

I live adjacent to Ringer Park in Allston, so I have plenty of green space for playing catch and walking throughout the day. I've been trained as a positive reinforcement dog trainer using only the most up-to-date and scientifically supported methods of dog training. I've cared for and thoroughly enjoyed working with a huge variety of family dogs including pugs, golden retrievers, huskies, and Shih Tzus. I feel comfortable feeding medicine to dogs for heart conditions and worms. I make sure to respect animal boundaries of physical contact and personal space. I'm always excited when I get to play with and take care of dogs, no matter the size or breed! I'm a graduate student from Boston University with my BA in Psychology and working on my MPH. I live with 2 roommates. Both have experience working with dogs and are comfortable with sharing our space. Upon moving to Boston, I fell in love with the city, so I plan to be here for a while. I'm available before noon throughout the week, after 7pm Thursday, and all day during the weekends I can also do short/long term dog sitting.

Pasith was absolutely fantastic with our dog. Very professional and responsible. It was great to get pictures and updates about Etta every night so we knew she was ok!

Pasith is a gentle soul who took care of my two French Bulldogs for 1 week while I was out of town. He feed them their vitamins and pills as well as regular food and sent pictures every day. When one of them peed on a roommate dog's bed, he was very understanding and didn't make a big deal of it. My dogs, who are very mellow, seemed quite at peace when I returned to pick them up. When I arrived, Pasith had packed up all their paraphernalia very neatly and helped me carry it down to my car. I would happily use his services again in the future. Thanks, Pasith!

Pasith went out of his way to accommodate our schedules to meet the dogs in a meet and greet, and provided quality care for our fur babies. Regular pictures, fun feedback, and even reported on a growth on our pups shoulder, show a level of care and expertise rarely seen. Highly recommend!

I'm very chill as a sitter. I'm fine with dogs on the furniture and always like to make sure they're comfortable. Usually available for 3 walks a day and I always make sure to give lots of hugs and pets (if they're cool with that).

Information Ricardo "Vera" M. would like to know about your pet

What size they are, what sex they are, what their name is, if they're house trained or not, if they're spayed/neutered or not, if they're scared or made uncomfortable by anything specific, and if they have any special treats that they like.

A typical day

We can go on walks throughout the day and play frisbee, ball, or whatever they like to do! I have a huge park right behind my building that's perfect for exploring and running around! There are walls, fences, and layers of trees on the outskirts of the park to make sure we stay safely away from any roads.
