Safety, trust & environment

I'll follow your lead to create a familiar, safe environment (and we all know dogs love routines). I'm also very communicative if questions or emergencies happen.

Information Adam S. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know the low-down on the dog's behavior: How are they with strangers on the street, other dogs, other animals? Are there any commands that work well with them?

A typical day

We go at your dog's pace. Some of my regulars have a sacred route they follow every time; others want to explore. I've walked laid-back seniors who like a slow sniff-heavy stroll and high-energy pups who need a few miles. I'll figure out what your dog loves and make sure they come home ready for some chill time.

Pets

I love a smiling dog.

Pet care experience

Nine years of experience, first-aid certified for dogs & cats, and a pet owner myself (staffie/boxer mix, so I know big goofy dogs personally). I've taken care of little scrappy dogs and excitable big dogs who love to pull. I've given eye drops and tricked pups into taking their meds. My belly rub and ear scratch game is solid. I also have real experience with senior pets, reactive and leash-aggressive dogs, and high prey drive dogs who need secure handling. I send photo updates on every single visit and I'll always let you know if anything comes up. I know it's hard to find a dog walker you actually trust — reliability and communication are the two things I hear about most in my reviews, and I take both seriously.

Adam did a great job stepping in for Mac's regular dog walker, and provides helpful updates and great pictures.

Adam is a very calm, confident, and dependable walker! His prior experiences handling large dogs have made us feel at ease, since Zuni can be a handful at times. Adam is always on time, and we are very grateful for his speedy response. Highly recommended!

Panting again when she got here. Looked like they had another great walk. Also, Adam was kind enough to help on short notice. Thanks!
