Obie had a good walk with look-alike Kirby ... Peter was timely & prepared with extra poop bags which were needed! He was also flexible in case of rain.

Peter has dog-sat for my very shy dog, Luke, many times, both during the day and overnight, and is wonderful with him! Peter is a bit of a dog whisperer, and dogs tend to trust and listen to him, and most of his friends' dogs positively adore him. He's very conscientious about his own dog and any other dog in his care, and is careful to make sure that Luke gets enough exercise, food, water, and of course cuddles, attention and play. Aside from Luke, who is <20 lbs, I've also observed Peter taking care of his roommates' large dogs (>50 lbs) and a high-energy Border Collie overnight, all of whom he was great with. Finally, because he's a veterinarian, I know that Peter will make a judgement call if anything medical were to come up, which is a great safety net to have when you're leaving your pet with someone else. (In the interest of full disclosure, I should say that Peter is my significant other, but regardless of that he's an excellent dogsitter and vet, and would be a great option if you're looking for someone to care for your pet!)
