Will treat your dog like my own

Pet care experience

I love everything about dogs. Growing up my parents always had a dog that I helped take care of. Now, my wife and I have two of our own. I volunteer at Brother Wolf, a local shelter, and have got involved in all aspects of working with dogs--playing, walking and loving. I can read body language and know when a dog is not in its comfort zone. I'm very nurturing. I've worked with dogs of almost sizes and personalities at Brother Wolf. I'm comfortable with dogs up to 100 pounds. When a dog doesn't want to play or walk I'll sit with them and talk or read a book if they just want to relax and be near me. I can read dogs very well.

Robert (Bob as I call him) has been my closest friend dating back to our early childhood. Growing up together and observing Bob as a professional sports journalist and editor for major newspapers, he has always displayed the utmost in professionalism, integrity and honesty. Since retirement, Bob has found a new passion, that being the opportunity to spend his time caring for dogs- his own as well as those at the Brother Wolf Animal Rescue in Asheville where he volunteers. Bob has two dogs as members of his family and in my frequent visits I am impressed with his love and care for them. I know Bob would be an excellent choice for Rover and with his training and experience handling animals, his clients would be very satisfied and confident in leaving their pets in his care. Thank you

I've known Robert B. for over 30 years and he's the kindest animal lover I know. My dog Jack loves when he comes over and he always gives him extra special attention. I trust Bob with my house and I always know that Jack is in the best hands when he takes care of him. You can tell he has a special understanding of animals and that animals inherently understand his gentleness and caring. I would give him 15 stars out of 10!
