I will be your dogs best friend.

Pet care experience

My name is Allen and I am extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of dogs. I care and speak to the dogs like they were my own. I have volunteered at animal shelters in my teenage years and now manage a large retail pet store. Since I was a child I was always drawn towards the companionship of a dog. I have been a dog owner for the majority of my life. The Breeds I have owned ranged in size from small to extra large. The dogs I have had the pleasure to own in order are a Lhasa apso(Bobo),Rottweiler(Tyson), Golden Retriever(Mummutt) and my last and current dogs are Pitbulls(Cow and Megatron). I can also perform light grooming for your dog. I can also schedule appointments with my vet for you and transport your companion to and from the vet's office. I am free weekday mornings and all weekends. It's important to me to meet with clients and their animals before our stay to be sure I can learn more about their needs and be sure I can offer them the best care possible, so please, be sure to inquire about scheduling a meet and greet before you book! If you decide to book my services I will actively send you updates and pictures of the time I am spending with your dog. I'm looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s). I hope to hear from you soon!

Allen the Dog Whisperer! He is Reliable, flexible and quite obviously cares about his clients and their pets. He has an unique ability to see the world in the Dog’s eye. It's easy to tell Allen loves animals and enjoys what he does. My dog Gunner loves his walks with Allen. Highly recommend his service

Allen is a long-time animal lover who treats pets with respect and consideration. He has cared for my finicky Pembroke Corgi and active Aussie. For both pups, Allen walked them extensively and used positive reinforcement. I would recommend Allen for any pet that likes attention and care!

I've known Allen for many years and I wholeheartedly vouch for his integrity, good judgment, and kindness of spirit. There's no one I've met that loves, cares and understands dogs like Allen does. He has the ability to distinguish between the needs of an active younger dog and a slower- moving aging one, and manage to ensure they both get the appropriate amount of exercise and care. He also has the ability to handle and care for dogs with various temperaments. I've seen him calm down aggressive dogs and he's a natural at it. Allen is extremely patient and he understands the needs of a dog. He has owned dogs throughout his life and will put the dog's needs before his own. Allen makes it a priority that his dogs experience love and and gives them the best care possible. His love for dogs are infectious that you can't help but love dogs as well. Not only will your dog get the requisite walks and feeding, but also the playfulness and affection he or she desires while you are away.

Allen is a loyal and a caring person. Those are the qualities that you should be looking for in any kind of caregiver. If you want to make sure that you can trust the right person to care for your loved ones, then Allen is the go to guy. Not only is he a friendly person, but he also brings experience which is a plus. I'm sure you would want someone to know what their doing. Allen helped me with my dogs. He made sure that my dogs got the care that they needed. He individualized the care of each dog because each of my dogs were spunky in their own way. I had 2 dogs, one was small and yappy and the other one was big and moody. Because these two dogs were different in size and attitudes, their behaviors were not the same toward me. Allen made sure that the yappy one didn't run away from me and the moody one didn't bite me. Allen has a way with dogs and giving individualized care. I recommend him to take care of your dog.
