I am currently working part-time and spending time with dogs helps time go by. Weekends are always open. Obviously there are chores to take care of the house but there is always time to tend to the furry friends.

Safety, trust & environment

I cared for my dogs when they were sick following vets instructions to give certain medications to my dogs. Adopting a dog always comes with challenges and we have overcome many of them. At home I have four rooms and two floors and a fenced backyard. I have three crates and one giant crate. I only use them if I need to run an errand or take care of myself away from the dogs. I try to ventilate the house an much as possible, frequently clean the house and make sure that my pets stay safe, healthy and happy.

Information Al K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know your dogs diet, current medications or medical conditions, whether they are potty trained and if they are ok to ride in a car to the dog park.

A typical day

I like exercising my dogs on a specialized dog treadmill at home before heading out for a walk. There are multiple parks in my area within walking distance and 15 minutes away from the old IBM complex. When weather allows I take my dogs to the River Road dog park to run around and socialize with other dogs.

Pet care experience

I’ve raised my two adopted puppies and created a safe home for both of them. All the vet visits and training and spending time together on walks helped me learn a lot about them and allowed me to show them that humans can be kind. They have their own personalities and needs. The dog treadmill keeps their stress and anxiety levels low. I groom and trim their claws. I’ve been training my dogs day to day and it never stops amusing me how smart they are.

Did a great job looking after my guy for a couple days. Was getting regular and consistent updates with pictures and videos. I would book again if needed.
