Availability

Pet care is central to both my current routine and the career I’m actively building. I am transitioning into dog walking as my full-time focus, so my schedule is intentionally structured around availability, consistency, and giving each pet my full attention. I have availability during for blocks of time each day: morning, midday, afternoon, and evening. I plan my day around these commitments rather than fitting them in around other obligations, which ensures that every walk is treated as a priority rather than an afterthought. Ultimately, pet care isn’t just part of my routine—it is the foundation of my professional path moving forward. Every dog I walk is treated with the same level of care, attention, and responsibility as if they were my own, because their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and environment. I prioritize keeping each pet comfortable by respecting their established feeding schedules, walking routines, and any specific behavioral or medical needs. I make it a point to ensure they feel calm, secure, and well-attended to while their owner is away or unavailable. During walks, I focus on safe, structured, and engaging outings tailored to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and preferences. I stay fully attentive throughout the walk, maintaining control and awareness of surroundings to ensure safety at all times. I avoid distractions and prioritize a calm, confident handling style so each dog feels secure and supported. In both settings, I treat every home with care and professionalism—leaving spaces exactly as I found them and maintaining clear communication with owners as needed. My approach is built on trust, consistency, and respect for both the pet and the owner’s space. Also I have a super-loving golden retriever who loves to make new friends! So if your dog is looking for more social time, meeting Cooper is an option as well!

Reliable Care for Your Dog

Pet care experience

I provide attentive, reliable dog walking services for pet parents who want more than just a quick walk around the block—they want someone who treats their dog’s time outside as an essential part of their overall well-being. I’ve spent my entire life around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, and I bring that lifelong experience into every walk. I understand canine behavior, energy levels, and the importance of structured, enriching walks that go beyond simple exercise. My priority is always your dog’s safety, happiness, and comfort. Every walk is conducted with care, awareness, and consistency so your dog feels secure and engaged from start to finish. What you can expect: - Professional, dependable scheduling and punctual arrivals - Calm, confident handling of dogs of all temperaments - Walks tailored to your dog’s pace, energy, and needs - Full attention—no distractions, no shortcuts - Clear communication with updates and photos after each walk I believe great dog walking is about building trust—not just with the owner, but with the dog. My goal is to become a consistent, familiar presence your pet looks forward to seeing! If you’re looking for someone who treats dog walking as a craft rather than a chore, I’d love to connect!

Curtis has watched our two dogs multiple times and he is always wonderful with them! My wife and I have complete trust that they are in good hands with him. It is obvious that he really cares for the animals and enjoys what taking care of them and our dogs always have a great time!

Curtis is the primary caretaker of our puppy when we are traveling. He does an amazing job caring for our Ruthie. Ruthie adores him. Dogs know and can tell when people love them. All dogs love Curtis. We highly recommend him to walk your dogs!
