I talk to dogs on their level

Pet care experience

I love dogs and they love me. I've been taking care of dogs of all sizes for years. I greet them as someone they can trust, and they can sense the confidence. I've trained service dogs to pass with flying colors, and have wrangled full-size mastiffs without breaking a sweat. I'm available any time from 12 PM to 7 PM, and then overnights if necessary. My personal care experience comes mostly from my own pets, plus service dog training. I've raised Labs, Retrievers, Mastiffs, Mutts (my favorite), Boxers, and Great Danes, but I also have experience with smaller breeds as well, due to my extensive experience and large family of dog lovers. Whatever you need, I can help you get it, and satisfy your requirements.

I've known Alex his entire life. He loves animals, always has. He is especially fond of my Golden Retriever, Midas. They're best buds and Midas eagerly anticipates Alex's visits! Alex is patient, kind, and genuinely fond of all dogs, regardless of their size or temperament. As a pre-teen he regularly assisted his father with two Mastiffs and a Lab, and he has also cared for a number of our family's cats over the years. I wouldn't hesitate to call on Alex for any pet care needs.

Information Alex T. would like to know about your pet

I do prefer larger breeds, but I can handle any size. Also, any dog I sit or walk should be trained not to pull on leads and walk alongside the walker. I can help train this, but I will not take a dog into public until this is done.

A typical day

My favorite place to walk dogs is along the Susquehanna. The river is beautiful and there's plenty of people and other dogs to socialize with!
