Hi there — I’m Scott! I’ve spent the last 10+ years caring for dogs and giving owners the one thing they want most: total peace of mind. I’ve worked with more than 500 families, earned 193+ five-star reviews, and I still genuinely love what I do every single day. - Why families trust me Decade of professional experience in pet care, dog training, and behavior. Former staff at a no-kill rescue and founder of Standard Pet Care. Certified AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator with extensive obedience and therapy-dog training experience. Comfortable with all breeds, including strong, reactive, senior, or medically fragile dogs. I’ve personally lived with a Boerboel, Rhodesian Ridgeback, and Pitbull—so big, powerful breeds are nothing new to me. I’ve also successfully cared for dogs with aggression histories, special medical needs, and seniors who need a gentle, consistent routine. - My care philosophy Your dog’s safety is non-negotiable. I don’t allow off-leash greetings with strange dogs or people, and I follow your training rules exactly as you’ve set them. If you’re working on specific manners or behaviors, I’ll help reinforce them while you’re away. My goal is simple: You relax. Your dog thrives. Clear communication, daily updates, and thoughtful attention to detail are my standard—every time. - If I’m staying in your home I treat your home with the same respect I give to your dog. Many clients joke that I leave their place cleaner than I found it. You can expect reliability, professionalism, and complete trustworthiness from start to finish. - Extra services I also run a weekly poop-scooping service, Mad Beach Pet Waste Co., if you want your yard kept clean.
