Your dog's part-time co-pilot

Pet care experience

I love spending time with dogs and have an easy time getting along with different varieties of dog and dog personality. I'm happy being active with your pup and getting in some good walking or fetching time, or just chilling out and scratching behind the ears if so desired. I'm glad to serenade your pet as well, I love a captive audience! Simply let me know what you want for your dog while you're out of the house and I'll provide it. I am glad to cater to your desired approach of dog ownership, strict or relaxed, as long as it does not include physical punishment. Regarding the time slots listed - I might have a hard time making the earliest of the first shift but I should be able to manage 8 AM, and I could gladly go as late as 5 or maybe 6 PM, but wouldn't care to go as late as 10.

Bjorn does wonderful with our dog Arlo and cat Millie! They are always happy and well taken care of when we come home - he even does a good job at getting Millie out from hiding for a little play time, which isn’t always easy for strangers. :) He does a great job of sending photo texts during each visit which is very much appreciated. Thank you for taking great care of our fur babies Bjorn!

Bjorn walked my dog Denali regularly for quite a while and did an absolutely fantastic job. He sent daily updates and was very reliable, rain or shine. I could tell he developed a great relationship with my dog (who can be somewhat shy), and she was always well exercised and happy. I'd 100% recommend Bjorn as a dog walker, as he is responsible, reliable, communicative, and will give your dog the love it needs!!

While not a dog owner, I had a cat that was very much a dog and couldn't handle more than a day or two left at home alone if I were to go out of town. Bjorn was always my go to person to have come and watch my cat when I was away because as an animal lover and good friend, he knew how much the cat meant to me, got along with him just as well as I did, and enjoyed spending time with him. Last spring, my cat grew increasingly sick and the vets had assured me that there wasn't a whole lot of time left. In the cat's very last week, I was extremely conflicted because I had plans out of town from months in advance that I couldn't change. I was pretty panicked, knowing that anything could happen while I was away and didn't want to leave that responsibility on someone else, should anything come up. Bjorn, as always was up to it, helped comfort him all the while until I returned home, ultimately having to let go and say goodbye, days later. It really meant a lot and I'll always be grateful for that. He's very good with animals of all sorts and would be an excellent caregiver. Can't recommend him enough.

Information Bjorn S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what kind of social situations your dog functions well or poorly in and the boundaries you've set for them. Also if your dog has any kind of medical issues I should be aware of. Please let me know if there are commands your dog responds to especially well or poorly.

A typical day

I know the Riverwest neighborhood best and have spent a lot of time dog walking and frisbee playing around Reservoir Park and the surrounding area, but I would love to get to know other parks around town that cater well to doggos.
