Pet care experience
Here's a brief explanation of my care philosophy: I'm a pet lover that does well with all sizes and breeds of cats and dogs, assuming they are, for the most part, friendly. My approach is one that promotes kindness and patience. Before I began offering pet services for hire, I would offer to look after, feed, and walk the pets of my friends and family, not because I was doing the people a favor, but because the animal in question was in need. For dogs, walks were not just trips to use the bathroom, but an opportunity for the dog to stretch its legs and enjoy the outdoors for at least half an hour. Taking care of a pet in the Metro area can prove to be difficult because life happens. The demands of work, transportation delays, etc. are all factors that can affect getting your beloved pet(s) the things they need most: food, water, exercise and a little company.
Reviews
Phil was an attentive and responsive companion for my German Shepherd while my wife and I were away. He provided comprehensive daily updates, interacted amicably with all three of us, and performed a detailed and reassuring exam when our dog slipped on some stairs. He even took care of the trash and washed the towels and bedsheets he used during his stay in our home. Would love to have him look after our dog again!
So glad we found Phil on here, he's been awesome!
Phil is awesome. He's great walking my little pup and he communicates everything which I love. Highly recommend.

Information Phil Y. would like to know about your pet
Understanding a dog's personality is important, especially how they receive strangers. Are they shy, apprehensive, aggressive? Knowing these things helps me create a custom handling approach.
A typical day
I prefer taking dogs along trails surround by trees and large areas of grass. Getting exercise for certain ages and/or breeds is vital, so playing catch or tossing frisbee would be my go to choice for a fun activity.
