We hate to leave Gracie but we felt secure that she was in good hands with Russell! Russell sent us updates daily with pictures and took great care of Gracie!! Gracie enjoyed the big yard and playing with a new dog friend! We are very grateful to Russell for taking such good care of Gracie while we were away!!

Russ has watched my two 10-year old boys on multiple occasions since I got them as puppies. They are good boys overall, but I do generally worry when leaving them for extended periods with anyone else who might not be able to handle the unexpected things. With Russ I’ve never had to worry about it. He’s handled temporary dietary changes, medication needs (like Liberace’s eye drops), and other such requests with incredible attention. The boys love visiting him and I always know they’re in capable hands. Thanks Russ 🐶 !

Russell has watched my daughters' two golden retrievers at the same time multiple times and separately more than once each. Each time the dogs have been well cared for, well fed, and enjoyed play time in the yard. Russell cared for them when they were very young puppies and more recently as they are 2 years old. He had them for a week at a time more than once and I am very pleased with his care for them. He is caring, attentive, and always puts the dogs needs first. Russell is a great choice for a pet caregiver, and his care went beyond his time with them as he took concern for medical needs that each of them had on different occasions. I will definitely be using his services again, and I highly recommend him as a caregiver.
