Availability
I work remotely full-time, which means I’m home with your dog all day. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine—morning walks before I start work, midday breaks for potty/playtime, and afternoon enrichment or a second walk. Because I’m home throughout the day, your dog gets consistent supervision, structure, and attention. Weekends are even more flexible and include longer walks, dog-park trips (if approved), and plenty of playtime with my two friendly resident dogs. Your dog becomes part of the rhythm of my home, not just an extra task squeezed into my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my top priority. I provide a calm, supervised, dog-friendly home environment where your pup can relax and feel secure. I have two well-trained, friendly resident dogs who help set a positive, social tone. Introductions are slow and structured to ensure comfort. I live in a house in Crown Hill with plenty of indoor space for lounging, playing, and napping. All outdoor time is on leash and fully supervised unless we’re in an approved fenced park. I never let dogs outside unattended. I follow your dog’s routines and rules—feeding instructions, medication schedules, crate preferences, walk styles, and any specific home behaviors you want reinforced. Whether in my home or yours, I maintain a structured, clean, and safe environment.

Information Dan D. would like to know about your pet
Before booking, it’s helpful to know: How your dog does with other dogs (my two resident dogs are friendly but I tailor introductions based on your dog’s comfort) Feeding instructions and routines Any medications or health issues Leash behavior and walking style Energy level and preferred activities Crate habits (optional—only if your dog uses one) Anxiety triggers or special needs Any house rules you want me to maintain The more I know up front, the easier it is to create a smooth, low-stress, comfortable stay for your pup.
A typical day
A typical day starts with a morning potty break and walk around Crown Hill or Holman Grove. After breakfast, dogs can enjoy social play (if they want to) with my two pups or settle in for a nap while I work. Midday usually includes enrichment—sniff walks, puzzle toys, tug, or fetch—or a visit to a nearby fenced dog park if you approve. Afternoon is another walk or outdoor session depending on your dog’s energy level. Evenings are for relaxing, cuddles, and calm time inside the house. Dogs sleep indoors on dog beds, couches, or crates depending on their preference. Every dog gets daily photos, updates, and plenty of affection throughout the day.

Reviews
Dan was great to work with! He was very flexible in his schedule, provided many regular updates/pictures and took wonderful care of a senior dog!
Dan did a great job taking care of our puppy. He actively socialized our dog with his dogs & gave him lots of walks.
Dan was really attentive and communicative. Even after the boarding ended, he’s been following up to make sure my dog’s recent injury is healing ok. You can tell that he really cares about the dogs he boards.
Dan was very responsive and took great care of Jerry. He got plenty of exercise and seemed to enjoy getting to play with Dan’s dogs. Thank you!
