Loyal, dependable & a Dog Dad of 2

Pet care experience

My wife and I currently travel the country, because she works as a traveling nurse. We have 2 Bull Terriers and 2 cats that we travel with every 4 months. Everyone asks, "Isn't that difficult?" and the short answer is yes. But, we love it, and we love them. We couldn't imagine our lives without them. I've come to learn that people want the very best for their animals in every aspect of their little, furry lives. I can and would uphold the highest standard of care for any animal because that is what I would want for my animals. They are indeed part of the family. Not only do I value the necessity that one's animal should be treated like family, I also value simple work values. Values such as dependability, punctuality, and honesty.

Russell was flexible and easy-going. Professional and prompt. My two danes loved him and would wait at the door with excitement each time. We wish he was staying in Denver! The next walker has some huge shoes to fill.

Don't even look for anybody else. I couldn't possibly know where to begin with how much we adore Russell. First of all, my cousin and I have 3 insane dogs between the two of us (2 german shepherds and one boxer). All three of which have their own individual needs (dietary restrictions, medications, separation anxiety/destructive). Its a zoo in our house, haha. And to top it all off, they have to be separated on two separate levels because they don't always get along. Russell stepped in and nailed it. Oh and the best part? When they all met him, they were licking his face and begging for snuggles immediately. Which they NEVER do. Literally he walked up to my guys on the street as a stranger and they died like they knew him forever. As for the stay. We were both gone for 10 days out of the country and after day one, we didn't have a care in the world. Which was unbelievable given the amount of stress we felt leaving them. And to top it off, we had airplane troubles and got stuck overseas for an entire extra day, but Russell stayed without question. He's a life saver to say the least. He always updated us with videos and pictures, and was super responsive by text. Even with an 8 hour time difference! I could go on forever, but just believe me when I say, you will be thrilled to leave your fur babies with Russell!

Russell is the best! When he first came out to meet Doogal they became fast friends. Doogal is rather large and sometimes can be a handful when he gets excited and Russell was great at working with him. For a dog momma that is overly protective it is comforting to know that Russell is extremely caring and trusthworthy with my pup. Whether he was coming to walk doogal or dog sit for a few days he would always provide great updates on how it went. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Russell is a great pet sitter! He is very reliable and alway friendly. He is definitely an animal lover. I feel confident and relaxed leaving my pets in his hands. They love him (sometimes I think more than me)! I 100% recommend him as a responsible and caring pet sitter.
