Dog lover of all energy/size levels
Pet care experience
I've owned or taken care of dogs since I was 8, at this point it comes second nature to me. I have two dogs of my own, one is a very large and calm mutt, the other is a high drive, working-line malinois. I have 7 years of dog training experience, both basic commands (e.g., sit/stay/leash walking) and high level training for detection and tracking. I feel very comfortable around dogs of all sizes and have experience watching a wide range of dog breeds and energy levels.
Reviews
Taylor is the best! I want to tell everyone about how great he is but I selfishly want him just for our girl! We are so lucky to have him in our dog-care lineup.
Taylor was great with my girl, Frankie! I broke my leg and it was extremely important to have reliable care for her. Taylor came through! Professional, punctual and reliable! I wouldn’t hesitate to call on him again!
Taylor is one of kind, not just with animals but his approach to his day to day with them. Taylor incorporates his two dogs and cat into each detail of how he travels, stays active, when he is away, etc. I personally have entrusted Taylor, on many occasions, to take care of my dogs. Where they are older and hesitant with new people; Taylor is careful, kind, and responsible with animals in a way that is admirable and clear in his enjoyment to be around them.
Taylor is my go to dog walker for my border collie mix Boomer, who requires a serious walk every day. Taylor is punctual and caring and clearly intuitively connects with dogs. Boomer just about does back flips when Taylor arrives. Taylor's help with Boomer really facilitates my busy work schedule.

My dogs are friendly and happy to accompany your dog on walks or not, depending on comfort level and your dog's needs. I can let your dog(s) out in a yard or take them for a walk in the neighborhood, I am comfortable with either. I am also available to run your dog - currently training for an ultra marathon so I do a lot of running.
Information Taylor L. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any behavioral quirks that I should know about. I am well versed in taking care of reactive dogs and happy to provide solo walks or time to dogs that are not dog friendly.
A typical day
I love to take dogs on long walks or runs for both physical and mental stimulation. If your dog has a favorite dog park, I'm also happy to take them there.
