Positive Dog Care with Trained Pro
Pet care experience
Hi there fur families! I've always had an affinity for all living creatures but especially dogs. I understand the importance of connection through play, maintaining a positive, bonding relationship, and how to make them feel loved and welcome. I believe in making sure that dogs are truly understood in their own language (smells, sounds, signals, and treats!). I can be very comfortable in your home or make your pet comfortable in mine and make sure your pet won't miss you too much while you're gone. I'll be attentive to their needs and keep them engaged and out of trouble while having fun adventures at the same time. Animals in general, and dogs in particular, are one of the few things that truly brings joy to my life.
Reviews
Phil did a great job. He was able to help us out last minute and was more than accommodating. Our Rottweiler can be a bit intimidating, but he handled her like a pro. He stayed at our house and watched our dogs while we were away,
We are very pleased with the care and attention that Philip gave to our dog. His easy going and professional manner make us feel comfortable entrusting our home and pets to his care.
Philip is a true dog lover! I do think he is a whisperer our Boston Terrier loves him. You always know when your dog has had a good experience, or not a good experience when you pick them up. Our little princess is always happy to see us, but we can tell she enjoyed her stay at Philips. I would highly recommend Philip to anyone seeking a qualified and reliable sitter who will treat your beloved pet with the same love and respect that you do.
I can't say enough great things about Philip! He made Tugboat feel right at home, kept him active and entertained and provided us with daily updates/photos of their adventures. Tugboat and Philip's pup, River, got along super well and quickly became best buds. Many thanks to Philip for taking care of our little guy!

Information Philip G. would like to know about your pet
I love to know the size of the dog, the breed, the temperament, how they are around other dogs and kids (for our walks), and what their favorite daily activities are. I love all dogs of all sizes but getting to know these things ahead of time will help get me mentally prepared to watch them and to physically prepare my home to host them.
A typical day
I am a certified dog trainer and enjoy taking dogs on hikes and adventures. I know that a dog that is physically exercised and mentally challenged with daily training is a dog that feels better, acts with more impulse control, and sleeps soundly at the end of the day.
