Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my days around walks, playtime, and feeding, so your pet always gets consistent attention. I love getting outside, so daily walks and fresh air are a big part of my lifestyle. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust to fit your pet’s needs.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment where they’ll get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I keep a close eye on them at all times and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I follow your instructions carefully, keep to your pet’s normal routine, and send regular updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Whether in your home or mine, my priority is building trust — with both you and your pet — so they feel happy, secure, and cared for at all times.

Information Armand G. would like to know about your pet

Every pet is unique, and I like to learn as much as possible beforehand to give them the best care. Please let me know: Any medical needs, allergies, or medications Feeding schedule and dietary restrictions Energy level and daily exercise needs How they do on walks (pulling, reactivity, etc.) Comforts or routines that help them feel safe Any behavioral quirks or triggers (separation anxiety, fear of loud noises, etc.) The more I know, the better I can keep your pet happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about keeping your pet happy, active, and loved. We’ll start with morning walks and playtime to get their energy out. During the day, I like to mix in plenty of attention — whether that’s fetch, tug-of-war, a jog, or just some cuddle time depending on your pet’s personality. If your dog enjoys the outdoors, we explore Tahoe’s beautiful trails, parks, or safe neighborhood walks. For senior pets or those who prefer a calmer pace, I’ll keep it cozy with gentle walks, brushing, and plenty of affection. Every day ends with your pet feeling cared for, exercised, and relaxed — like they’re truly part of the family.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m AJ! I’ve been around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all kinds. I previously ran my own dog-sitting and walking business and also worked with Rover in Europe, caring for many repeat clients. (Unfortunately, those reviews don’t transfer here—but you can check out my photos to see the dogs I’ve worked with!) Your dog will get lots of attention, exercise, and love while staying with me. We go on daily walks, explore trails, and spend plenty of time outdoors—including trips to the beach when possible. I have a comfortable, pet-friendly home with a patio where dogs can relax and feel at ease. I’m experienced with administering medication, handling different energy levels, and basic training, so your dog will be in capable hands. I treat every dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for at all times.

Armand is very nice! Leaving the dog at his house is a good option. It's a good place if you go skiing.

We had a great experience with AJ watching both of our dogs. He was reliable, very communicative, and kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us real peace of mind. Our dogs were clearly well cared for, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. We would absolutely use him again and highly recommend him to others.
