Safety, trust & environment

I treat all pets as if they were my own. I follow strict guidelines provided by the owner. I'm a very detail-oriented enthusiastic pet person who will provide a safe, nurturing, enjoyable environment for your pet.

Information Tim B. would like to know about your pet

The importance for proper dog caring is to know the animal's demeaner-likes and dislikes- attitude toward other animals and people-whether there's a need for medicine(s) to be administered (exact time and amount)-any special traits that their pet has and the amount and time for their meals.

A typical day

It's vital for a pet to be stimulated both mentally and physically within it's comfort and understanding level. Most importantly and first thing, I will structure my pet fun activities strictly according to the pet owners likes and requirements. All dog activities will be approved by the pet owners and I'll ensure the pet is active, engaged and having fun in their absence.

Pet care experience

Hello and thank you for your time. I have recently retired from U.S. Federal Law Enforcement having served our country overseas and stateside for 31 ½ years. I love animals and there’s never been a time in my life that I haven’t had and taken care of our four-legged family members. My range of family and friend’s pets include taking care of a giant Saint Bernard, numerous adopted animal shelter dogs (both small and large), Labrador Retrievers, Boxers, Shih Tzu’s, Schnauzers and our current 3-year-old Golden Retriever “Boomer”. Now that I have the time to fully immerse myself in a passion for taking care of animals, I can provide you with the highest level of care for your pet. I have lived in Falls Church, VA, for 8 years and can provide you with character references. I can handle puppies, junior and senior dogs and high energy dogs and will plan my care giving schedule around “your specific needs and times”.

Tim is a trustworthy, kind, connected and responsible sitter who was great to work with. He exceeded our expectation by being incredibly kind, thoughtful and personable. It would be a pleasure to be able to book him for future walks.

Tim is an absolute gem and has been a gift to me and my pup. To say he is a dog walker doesn't do him service. He is a beloved companion to my dog. He has taken her for daily walks for several months, and has always been punctual and responsive. He goes above and beyond to make sure he understands your and your dog's needs and provide a tailored experience. My dog loves to sniff and explore new places, and he makes a point to give her time to enjoy the smells and to take new routes. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Tim was an excellent, caring dogsitter-- I would definitely use him again. He really loves animals and was very communicative with pictures and even videos. He left everything in perfect order when we came home-- could not ask for more in a petsitter!
