Your pets next best walk/run buddy

Pet care experience

I have been around animals, my whole life it doesn’t matter if it’s my pets, my friends, pets or even my families pets. I have had rabbits, fish, cats, and dogs. When I was first born and at a very young age, my parents had a cat named Misty. Misty was a farm cat, and I learned at the young age of how to take care of a pet and a cat. It didn’t matter if it was giving the cat exercise, feeding the cat, giving it water or even cleaning out the litter pan. I also at a young age at around eight learned how to take care of a dog as my family got a golden retriever. We got this golden retriever named Sam from Humane Society, and Sam was an older dog about eight years old. I learned how to take care of an older dog, feeding it, giving exercise and water, and of course playing fetch, because what golden retriever doesn’t like fetch. After these animals, I got a Maine Coon cat named Cowboy. Again I learned how to take care of Cowboy by feeding Cowboy, giving Cowboy water and emptying the litter pan along with playing with Cowboy. Cowboy was a bit younger when I got him and was about eight months old. After cowboy, I was Lucky enough to get a black lab as a puppy, named Lucky. I named Lucky Lucky because what dog is not lucky to have me as their owner to take them on runs! Lucky was about four months old and again a potty trained Lucky, took Lucky to training classes and also trained Lucky on my own at home helping Lucky to learn to sit stay and play. After Lucky I got a rescue dog named Dyno, Dyno was a rescue dog from a high kill shelter in Alabama and when I did a DNA test on Dyno, Dyno came out to be a black lab pointer mix with a little bit of terrier and boxer in her as well. Dyno was approximately four months old as well when I got her. I helped Dyno learn to be potty trained took her to training classes and train her at my house as well. I helped Dyno to learn, sit and stay, and also place along with playing dead. I recently just moved out of my house, and unfortunately Dyno had to stay with my parents, because Dyno doesn’t get along with other dogs as well. I did have to be very cognizant, while I took care of Dyno, to make sure Dyno did not injure or hurt other dogs, and keep Dyno safe as well, so I’m very good at making sure and keeping track of dogs when they’re along with other dogs so that they don’t fight. I am smart and know the signs dogs have if they are nervous, worried, or scarred. I moved in with my fiancé, who has a seven year-old golden retriever named Molly, and I am currently taking care of Molly. Molly is an unbelievable golden retriever dog, loves to go for runs and play fetch. If you have a dog that loves to go for runs or walks I will gladly take them for runs and walks to get my exercise in with them. What dog does not like to go for a run? Hope I can help you walk/run and take care of your animals just like I love to take care of my own!

I've known Cori approximately 10 years now. Highly recommend him. Cori is a hard working, friendly...and most importantly, honest person. Our fur babies are beloved members of our families. It can be stressful letting someone you don't personally know care for them. You need a person you can trust. Cori is a KIND and TRUSTWORTHY person! I believe you will be happy that you hired Cori!

Hello, This is my testimonial for Cori W. I have known Cori his entire life. I have seen him interact with his own dogs and my dogs. He has shown patience dealing with puppies and the elder dogs in his life. Cori has a gentle manner that will make all dogs feel comfortable in his presence. I have trusted Cori to take care of my teenage children for an entire week while I was out of the Country so that tells you how much faith I have in his abilities. He has proven to be dependable. Cori is also very active. He walks and runs with his own dogs so he definitely would love the dog walking part of this. He is a great guy and I highly recommended him for this job Julie Peszko

Right now I am not planning on having dogs or cats stay at my house with my dog Molly, so this is not something you need to worry about however, if I’m walking or taking your dog for a run, I would make sure to bring my light up light collar for your dog so that your dog is safe whether it’s dark out. If you have one I would use yours. This will make sure your dog has your collar on with its leash and keep your dog or cat safe.

Information Cori W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know. Medications you dog needs, special needs, issues walking/running, etc., about your dog. Does it run away need to be on a leash in your yard?

A typical day

Play fetch with balls, take them for walks, or take them for runs. I love working out. I will run them with me. I also play soccer I will kick the soccer ball around and they can chase me. Of course lots of petting, and snuggles too!

In my professional life, I am a police officer, so not only do I take care of animals in my personal life, but also in my professional life when they are lost, and I need to get them back to the owner, or even dropping them off at the Humane Society so they are safe. Recently on the Snowmobile Trail. I actually found a kitten and was able to get the kitten to come to me so that it did not freeze to death in the woods and get it to a business near the Snowmobile Trail so that it could be returned to the Humane Society to stay safe . Based off of my schedule in my professional life of being a police officer, I work Monday through Friday most of the time I work the hours of 7am to 4pm, during school months, and when school is off, then I am off. Such as winter break or spring break, allowing me to take care of your animals anytime during the day those weeks. In the summer, I work 6 AM to 2 PM, so in the summer I would be able to help out with your animals much sooner in the day than I am during the school months but either or, I would be home and able to let your pets out by 2 PM or 4 PM depending on the time of year. Even if you are home and you’re an individual that doesn’t like to go for runs or walk or are older, I could take care of your animal and let them out take them for a walk or run while you were at home as well, just to get them exercise, I would be happy to do that because then I get my exercise as well. On the weekends, I would be available most all the time as well, unless I am busy, but I would do drop in short notice type calls as well! With me working in the school during the school year, I have off days during the school year that your kids are off as well. So spring break I am open all day, or just even random days during the week they are off as well. So please keep that in mind. In the summer I am free at 2pm to let your dog outside.
