Whether taking my dogs to the beach or dog park for exercise, or hanging out with my kitties while the dogs play in the yard, I know they are being loved and well cared for! Brice is also an excellent dog trainer. My dogs have better recall since he has been looking after them, and he has even worked with me to ensure I am giving proper commands to ensure obedience and safety. My animals get so excited when he comes to the house- which tells me everything I need to know! I highly recommend him as a pet sitter :)”
