Dogs Love Me; (Squirrels Mock Me)
Pet care experience
I've always been a dog person (I'm proudly known as the Dog Whisperer) and I've been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I recently decided to take on a career change, and what would be better than working from home with some furry friends! I've loved dogs since I was a child (thanks, Mom!), and for years I've looked after tons of dogs (both my own, and of friends). While I love all animals, dogs have a special place in my heart. While we all can communicate with our pups with precious few words, I have a rapport that goes beyond that--dogs really respond to me. There is nothing like playing or interacting with a dog, and feeling their unbound joy in the simple things. I pride myself on being fun, patient, and intelligent, and dogs always react positively to my energy. I'm definitely a "dog guy". I know how hard it is for you and your pup to be apart, and I guarantee I'll treat your dog just like you do. I'm flexible with my schedule, can stay at home for longer periods for "special needs" pups, and I have a vehicle capable of transporting canines if/and wherever we may go on an adventure. Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm so excited to meet you and your furry friend!
Reviews
Patrick did a great job of caring for our two dogs while we were out of town!
If we could give six stars (or 10!), we would! Patrick was very prompt in our initial conversation before booking the sitting, and while we were gone on our trip, he sent us lots of check-ins and pictures of the puppies on walks and hanging around the house. Even though this was our first experience with Rover, we didn't worry about our dogs at all--Patrick was so, so great.
Patrick did an awesome job with my dogs! He sent me updates at least once a day to let me know how they were doing. I know the dogs liked him because they were very excited to go back again. It was a relief to know my dogs were being well looked after!
My pups had just moved across the country and we had to leave them. Patrick was perfect for my German Shepherds. Area and Calypso were happy and settled after a couple of days. Patrick sent pics daily and that was really helpful. I was very happy.

Information Patrick P. would like to know about your pet
Health details are ALWAYS important, as are any needs out of the ordinary (diet, physical, etc). Pack preference is important information for dogs who are boarding, as I have my own dog at home who gets along with pretty much everybody.
A typical day
I live relatively close to a large, off-leash dog park that my own pup enjoys greatly, so with your permission we could go hang out there. I also love to go hiking (long or short, it doesn't matter), and since we have a variety of trails here, there is one suitable for most types of pups needs. Other than those fun adventures, I'm happy to stick to your dog's routine so they can feel comfortable.
