Information Billy K. would like to know about your pet

I'm pretty flexible so I can work with most things so long as I am made aware ahead of time. Any issues in the past with prior sitters/trainers, any strange/unusual behaviors

A typical day

I like to keep dogs engaged and occupied, if they need the mental stimulation I'll provide, if they need to burn off some energy, we can do that too!

Pet care experience

I've loved dogs and working with them for quite some time, after I retired from the Navy in 2019 I started working on my dog handling skills, then in 2022 I started working at Glendale dogs 24/7, where I held the position of General Supervisor. I then went to D Pet Hotels Scottsdale working as a shift lead/bather until I finally landed a job as a trainer at Petco. I just left Petco after a year to start working for myself.

Billy did a great job staying Juanito while we were gone for the afternoon. Juanito was well cared for - I will use him again!!!

Billy is hands down amazing! He is very knowledgeable, reliable and passionate for the animals in his care. From the first moment we did a meet and greet Billy offered great recommendations and advice- added bonus he’s a trainer! He goes above and beyond and you can tell he truly cares. Billy took the time, to speak with me after one of the walks to review and discuss our dogs behavior and how to help her succeed moving forward. I truly appreciated this and just goes to show he's willing to go the extra mile. Finding trust in someone caring for your pet is hard, but I am confident and comfortable leaving our rescue pup in his hands. We highly recommend Billy!

Billy was amazing, every step of the way. He was patient, prompt, kind, understanding, and really has a knack for the education portion of the training. It’s one thing to do a job and another to be passionate about it and Billy is passionate about not only training pets but their humans as well. His methods work and are simple and he explains and breaks everything down so you understand the why behind what you’re doing so you’re as efficient as possible
