I would walk 500 miles for your dog

Pet care experience

I have 5+ years in applied behavior analysis (ABA) which serves as the basis for all dog training programs. I am passionate about my work and dogs! I have helped train dogs of various friends. Friends and family members have relied on me for walking their dogs and providing training advice. Let me use my passion and experience to your benefit!

Our dogs had a great time with Arek. They are both senior dogs with plenty of medications and special considerations given their ages, and Arek managed it all with ease. I will be looking forward to having Arek sit our dogs again in the future!

Arek is one of the most genuine and trustworthy humans I know. I’ve known him for over 15 years and over the course of that time I have had 5 different dogs that the dogs have taken to him within a few minutes of meeting him. He is quick to pick up the pet’s habits and behaviors to make sure they are comfortable with him and creates a safe environment. I’m confident that his love for animals in general and his compassion as a person will make an excellent caregiver for any pet.

Arek is as responsible and loving is as they come. My german Shepard (Archoog) feels totally comfortable with Arek, he’s very friendly and I would absolutely recommend him to family and friends. Thank you again, Archoog and I will be back!

I have known Arek for almost nine years. He is one of the most patient and caring persons I know. For approximately six years, he has been helping me care for my cat Wesley that is now elderly. Wesley is a stray cat that I took in to care for. I remember when Arek first met Wesley many years ago and how quickly he was able to build a relationship with him, and earn our trust. Since Wesley was a stray cat in a very rural small town, it was originally very difficult for me to take him to the vet, and when he would get sick, it was difficult for me to administer his medication. I was always in awe of how effortlessly Arek was able to help me take Wesley to the vet and help me take care of him when he would get sick. I have also seen Arek take care of other pets. Arek is incredible thoughtful and cares for other people’s pets as if they were his own. That’s how he’s always treated Wesley, as if he was family. I have also seen Arek help train several dogs of friends and family. I’m not really sure how ABA works but I’ve seen him be able to train dogs on how to follow instruction and I’ve seen Arek also patiently working with dog owners and teaching them how to independently practice the techniques with their dogs. Overall, Arek is amazing and what I most appreciate is his patience. I hope you and your pets have the opportunity to meet him.
