I am basically an animal myself

Pet care experience

Raised several dogs growing up, as well as cats. Have provided off-leash training to three separate dogs, all with immense success. Watched multiple dogs for friends and family. I provide a deep connection with dogs. I give them the same energy I would give a child, and treat them like a family member, which is why I have so much success.

Colby is a friendly young man who was very attentive to my big middle-aged dog. I will definitely consider using him again when scheduling permits.

Colby has always been a dog lover. He is quite natural with them and befriends then quite easily. He has grown up with dogs and cats and provided lots of companionship and love for them over the years. His love for dogs often shows up in the way he spends time with them in the home and volunteering to take them for walks or take them with him when he runs errands in the car. Even when he was in Hawaii working on a farm he would often share with me how he loved to take the dogs with him when he would go to work like feed the chickens or just wherever on the farm. He often told me about the people he was with but he would also tell me a lot about the dogs and how much he enjoyed them there as well. Colby has a big and caring heart; it's just part of his character. I think this would be the perfect fit for him. He would love to have a job where he could just relate with people and their pets. He really enjoys discussing the dogs with their owners and finds them as a point of connection with the owners.

Safety, trust & environment

While I offer off-leash training and commands, I can also to the owners discretion, keep dogs leashed and within their own yards. If dogs will be staying with me, I have another dog in the home named Roman. He is like a shy, awkward roommate. He mostly keeps to himself but he does sometimes play with whatever dog is staying over at the time. I also have a cat but it will be staying in my room when the dog visits.

Right outside is a path that leads to the Utah Park. For an extra fee I can take your dogs on hikes or to dog-parks.

I work DoorDash and as a Substitute teacher, meaning my schedule is intensely flexible. I wake up, and immediately walk whatever dog I am working with, and then through out the day spend time with them and address their needs accordingly.
