I love dogs and they love me!
I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I'm the type of person who spends more time petting a dog than talking to people at a party. I'm a former scientist and former athlete and I really relish the challenge of trying to make friends with every dog and cat I meet. Family and friends have relied on me to care for their animals for 10 years, including both cats and dogs with special dietary and/or medical needs. I believe in walks that go at your dog's own pace and include a lot of nose work. Mental exertion is at least as important as physical, and probably more! I've come to have a lot of respect and affection for cats and I enjoy their company, even if it's from afar. You just have to relate to them on their level and let them lead the way.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen
Dan is incredible with our dogs, we are so lucky to have him as our regular walker for a year and a half now. He is very attentive to them and their behaviors. He is patient, kind and encourages with positive reinforcement. We trust him completely and feel comfortable leaving our dogs with him for overnight stays when we take trips. We know they are in good hands and we love the updates he sends us.
Dan was fantastic with my two senior pups. He is so attentive to their behavior and did a great job putting them at ease while I was away. It's a relief to know they are in good hands with someone that genuinely cares about them and their well being.
Dan is absolutely wonderful!
Dan is awesome! Mimi says pawsome!
Tsuga settled right in at Dans house when we boarded her for our recent trip out of town. She loves to play in his fenced in backyard. Dan sent great detailed updates while we were away. We trust him and absolutely recommend him to our friends and family. 10/10 best dog walker and sitter
Dan G. Is great! I appreciate him taking my dog through the ice and snow for her walks!

Zeitplan
I work from home and have a flexible schedule which allows me to dip out at anytime during the day. I love going for long walks on my own and what could be better than having a pup to keep you company?

I believe every dog is a good dog who just wants to make their humans happy, and I respect them on that level. Dogs that pull hard on walks are not a problem. I definitely buy into the positive reinforcement training paradigm (though my experience is all informal). I work hard to bring an open, friendly attitude to every dog encounter I have. I'm not afraid to get down on the floor! I try to pay close attention to body language and if an animal seems like they are just not having it, I'm absolutely committed to doing what's best for them even if it means I might disappoint people. Sorry not sorry! They say you shouldn't wrap a leash around your arm because you could get injured, but I would honestly rather sprain my wrist than let your animal come to harm. I truly believe they are members of your family!
Ein typischer Tag
Mental stimulation is super important for dogs so I love to take sniff-centric walks that really get them thinking and reading the local "dog mail." I love to hit up a local park if there's one nearby (there's a big one right down the street from me!) and let your pup sample all the smells. I can happily play fetch forever or just run around in the yard—whatever your dog likes to do! For cats: does your little hunter have a toy they like to chase around? I'm way into it!
