Bruce was a lifesaver for me. A few days before my international move, I was informed that import paperwork for my two cats was incomplete so they would not be able to join me until later. I emailed Bruce in a panic – he responded very quickly and was ok with my unknown time frame.

My two kitties happily stayed with him for over two months. He has taken special care to outfit his living space with “cat friendly” areas like hiding spaces and window perches. He clearly cared very much for my cats’ welfare and gave me detailed reports. He was also flexible when the time for their departure changed several times. I highly recommend Bruce if you need a place to keep your cat(s) for a long term stay.

Bruce has been walking our dogs for 13 years. He has never cancelled or not shown up!!!!! Both our dogs have loved him – and he loves them! When our oldest dog passed away Bruce was as upset as we were, and he asked for a picture of him to keep at home. What more could you ask of a Dog walker/sitter? Bruce does not walk your dog with 10 other dogs all caught up in leashes – he gives personnel attention on each visit at a very reasonable price. He is also trust worthy and has had access to our home all these 13 years, and when we travel Bruce stays over and not only spends tons of time with your dog – you get your house watched after also.

When you and your dog meet Bruce you will know right away he is an animal lover.

I recently moved to the city from back east, and one of the things I knew was that I was going to need a dog walker for my lab/retriever/loveable mutt, Millie Grace. .. I felt lucky that my place was a block away from Duboce park- then I met Bruce.

In 2 months, he’s fallen in love with MIllie. I have a good monthly deal for his services, he’s reliable, kind, and obviously loves my girl. Since I work in Palo Alto, I’m gone all day M-F and I can concentrate knowing that Bruce is going to take Millie out for a good play – in the park with other dogs- while I’m at work.

Also, I travel sometimes for work – and anytime I do, Bruce has been there to take care of Millie while I’m gone. His rates rival any boarding facility, and I know Millie is getting individual attention and love.

As long as I live in the city, I’ll never hire anyone else to watch my girl. Sometimes you just know you got a good one – and the way Millie reacts when she sees Bruce removes any doubt.

Bruce has been my cat sitter of choice for the last 9 years. My shy kitty adores him and Bruce takes exceptional care of him. I never have to worry when I leave town because I know my cat is in excellent hands.

I have a very difficult cat ( I know everyone says that, but Critter is something else). I have had 2 other cat sitters refuse to come back because they could not handle Critter. Bruce was patient and after 10 days, Critter warmed up to him. I found someone I trust and that has the patience to work with my difficult kitty. Thank you Bruce.

Several friends recommended Bruce and I have not been disappointed. When I take a vacation I know Maxwell and Doris are in good hands. They’re older now, senior kitties, and he even gives them their medications. In fact, they are so pampered that when I come home they don’t seem to have missed me! They get individualized attention and you won’t see him walking a b-zillion dogs in the neighborhood! I would highly recommend him to care for your dogs or cats!!!

“My sightless Italian Greyhound was a shy, withdrawn dog when I left him with Bruce as a boarder.
When I picked him up , to my amazement, he was outgoing, affectionate, and fearless!
I will be forever grateful to Bruce for the gift of Pietro’s newfound confidence.

He is a true life ‘dog whisperer’
