Who let the dogs out!! Woof! Woof!
Pet care experience
I am a pack leader and had dogs as a kid. I have two rescue huskies now that I am fostering and hopefully will be able to keep. I believe dogs usually misbehave when they have too much energy. My kids and I will help wear your dogs out.
Reviews
Arik was great with my high energy pup and his kids did great with her too! I received lots of photos and she came home exhausted. I will use him and his family again
Full disclosure, I’m writing this review for my son. He has excellent animal skills and a love for all creatures. In college I thought he would be a wonderful Veternarian. He studied to become a wildlife biologist instead. Recently I was on a walk with my other sons Boston terrier, the dog is stubborn and constantly pulls on the leash. Arik was visiting at the time and walked with me, he magically got the dog to walk between us with no issue. I was amazed! He has dog whisperer skills. He is also loving and gentle with my cats, they love him. Your dog will too!

We love dogs. We like to ride bikes to the lake, play ball in the park and cuddle with pups. My boys will wear your dog out, give it a lot of attention and prob try and teach it a trick or two.
Home
Information Arik S. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know what the eating requirements are for the dog, temperament, injuries past or present, favorite toys, are they scared of men? My lab as a kid was fearful of men but loving towards my mom and us kids. I believe anything can be overcome if the dogs trust their caretakers.
A typical day
Ideally would like to take the dog on a local hike or play fetch and or frisbee. I’m very active. I also will do some gentle massage in the hip region as I’ve been able to provide relief for dogs with hip dysplasia. Even getting a border collie back on her feet so she could play.
