Safety, trust & environment

I adjust to the needs of my clients animals. If they have a fenced in yard or a cage we like to utilize whatever is most appropriate for each client. Some make sure they are crated before and after services and some like to let them exercise in the yard or go on walks. I am flexible within the means of what our clients most prefer.

Information Robert B. would like to know about your pet

How are they around strangers and or other dogs? Do they have any specific behaviors I should know about? Any allergies? Are they housebroken? Have they been fixed? I have no breed preferences at the current moment

A typical day

I love to take dogs to the park where they can run more freely in an open area. I also love playing fetch with dogs they tend to really enjoy that.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs since I was in 2nd grade, my mother said we weren't allowed to have pets unless I personally took care of them. My dog I grew up with I still currently have on top of another dog in which I take care of. Growing up I used to take care of my neighbors dogs when they went away on vacations. I am very caring, playful, and active with my animals and treat any and all animals as if they were my own.

We're so thankful we found Robert! As a bit of a neurotic pet parent, and with a whole bunch of special circumstances, we were worried we'd have a hard time trusting anyone to take care of our babies. From the first meet and greet we got a great sense of comfort from Robert, and even the dogs were comfortable with him almost immediately. He was able to take care of our paralyzed 19-year old and kept our other two separate due to behavior issues. We couldn't be happier and would 100% recommend Robert!

Robert was great! All three dogs warmed up to him within 2days. My dogs’ judgement is spot on. I would absolutely have Robert back (maybe next summer;) )

We had a great experience with Robert as our pet sitter! From the meeting in the beginning through the pet sit, he was professional and communicative. He took great care of our basset hound, and our home, while we were gone. We’d definitely book him again for our future pet sitting needs.

Robert was wonderful! Our youngest (and smallest) girl is very apprehensive about men but within 10 minutes of meeting Robert, she was already putty in his hands. 😍 We are very protective of our girls but we felt completely at ease leaving them in Robert’s loving hands. They were happy and content when we returned home and it was obvious they were very well cared for. Thank you, Robert, for giving us peace of mind when we can’t be with our babies!
