Reliable and caring Dog parent

Pet care experience

My first pet assignment, at age 18, was caring for a Mastif and a pitbull mix over a period of a year. The parents asked me to take Majesty and Alex walking through the desert on leash. A Jack Rabbit crossed our path and both dogs took after it. They dragged me a pretty good distance before I could regain control. I look back and laugh at that story and realize I've learned so much about caring dogs of all sizes. I now own a lab, Daisy, and a shepherd mix, Charlie-- he's the naughty one.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Richard for the past three years. I could tell you he’d be an awesome dog caregiver! He’s reliable and cares for two awesome dogs of his own. Without a doubt I would trust him with my own dog!

Richard is a fun-loving, outgoing guy that is sure to keep your dogs active and safe. Richard always has a big smile when he is with his dogs. Actually, he is always smiling. I would definitely recomend Richard as a responsible, joyful dog caregiver!

Richard is a dog lover. I don't have a dog, but have seen him interact and care for his two dogs at his home. He is patient and caring. If I had a dog I would definitely trust him. Thank you!

Richard is a young man with the heart of an old soul. Lovingly he cares for his two doggies and engages them in healthy play. I have two pups as well, one with special needs, she is 12 years old and has an autoimmune disorder that has caused her to go blind several years ago. Richard will connect with her and lift her spirits in a way that few people can. As for the other goof-ball, she will get the attention I so wish I could give when Richard is over. For this type of responsibility I would trust only a select few... Richard has my total confidence to care for my fur children. I appreciate the selflessness that he demonstrates and especially the thoughtfulness that he shares.
