I have experience in training dogs and may help with desensitization if your dog does not do well with other dogs.

Animal lover!!

Pet care experience

I love dogs, I’ve grown up with them, and have raised a total of 3 dogs in my lifetime. I know how to treat them properly and have the right energy and approach towards them. I will also accommodate any needs whether it be medication administration, bathing/grooming etc! I am an active person and will walk your dog as many times as requested. I live across the street from the park and go on frequent jogs/walks there. I have a small dog of my own and she gets along well with other dogs.

Alvin was punctual and able to accommodate boarding on short notice. He sent regular updates with pictures, and my dog seems pretty tired so he must have had lots of playtime

Alvin was able to accommodate my puppy last minute which I was grateful for. He is very responsive and a great communicator. I received updates and photos throughout the day which was appreciated. My puppy seemed to have had a great time and came home tired which is always a good sign! I would highly recommend him as a sitter!

Alvin took excellent care of Sunny. While pickup I was running late and Alvin very easily accommodated our new pickup time. Will recommend his dog sitting/boarding services to anyone. Thank you Alvin!
