Highlights
Pet care experience
I would literally die for your pet
I got my first dog ever a decade ago and I raised him to be perfect, with no professional training for either of us. Then, I quit my ten year career in digital marketing to follow my passion and work entirely with dogs. I worked as a bark ranger at Bark Social and made dog safety my top priority, drastically reducing humping and the ensuing scuffles. I loudly advocated for a transformation of safety rules while I worked there. I volunteer at BARCS and am aiming to get advanced training for different dog behavior needs. Howie is my top reference. I adopted my second dog (Shadow) after instantly bonding with her at my old job. Shadow is bonkers and her parent has health issues, so Shadow needed a home where she can be her true self. Dogs are my world and I will give your pet all the love and affection they deserve (which is all of it because they are perfect).

Ratings and reviews
Great communication and pictures. I could see that my dog was having a great time. Very responsive when I needed to extend a day!
My dog doesn’t usually like people, but she loves Daniel!!
Daniel was wonderful with my puppy, Lestat! Lestat came home happy and tired from all the playing, which tells me he had an amazing time. This was his first time socializing up close with other animals, and Daniel made the experience awesome and comfortable for him. I truly appreciate Daniel and his wonderful fur babies for helping Lestat feel safe and welcome. I highly recommend him!
Daniel was super accommodating and Ellie had lots of fun with him throughout the day! He took lots of pics and when I picked Ellie up, she kept going back to Daniel for more scritches. His two dogs were also very sweet.
Showed up exactly when I needed for a walk. Got an impressive walk in for my dog who can be easily distracted/want to pull and took lots of pictures along the way.
Our big dog loves staying with Daniel and his dogs. He is a wonderful caring and active dog sitter. She comes home tired and happy.

Schedule
Dogs run my life and I wouldn’t have it any other way. The only thing I can see myself doing for the rest of my life is working with animals. I’m all in so I’m available most hours and most days. I’m literally with dogs 95% of my life so dogs are my daily routine. My dogs will love becoming best buddies with any pet that boards or does daycare with them! I am currently only booking one walk per day to focus on daycare and boarding clients.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
All boarding and daycare clients will have an apple AirTag tracking chip affixed to them for the duration of our time together (if wearing a collar). I use a hands free leash attached around my waist so they’re stuck with me. I also use their handheld leash as a backup. I have a shared balcony and private fenced back patio, so there is always a secure outside area for your dog. My house is less than a block from Patterson park, giving them plenty of outside opportunities. My training style is radical love. Your pets will know they’re cared for and will get plenty of positive reinforcement from my end! I have two extremely friendly dogs, so there will always be friends for your pet. Dogs run my household and life revolves around them. Your dog is in safe and loving hands! Please bring a collar for tracking. I prefer using both harnesses and collars when taking them for walks, but one or the other is required. You will also need to bring any food or other things necessary for your dog. I only have Shadow’s crate at this time, hopefully with another coming soon, so also bring your crate if your dog is crate trained. They won’t need one if they don’t typically use one though! I love this community and plan on staying here for the rest of my life. Help me eventually buy a house here that fits more dogs and you’ll have a dog guy for life!
Pets
A typical day
Two dogs live at my house, so they will always have friends with them. They can go outside whenever, on either floor. Your dog will start the day getting acclimated with my house and their new dog friends. We’ll typically go on a walk and eat lunch then do the same before dinner. The rest of the day will be spent playing with the other pups, napping, and getting lots of lovings. I live next to Patterson park and walk everywhere, so they can join in on urban adventures at local coffee shops, restaurants, shops, and dog friendly bars from Highlandtown to Fells point. They’ll play with my dogs outside, bark at the neighborhood from the balcony, and cuddle for naps wherever they please. Your dogs will eat separately from others so they can dine in peace. I may (will) sneak them a few treats and a peanut butter or yogurt licky mat if you give permission!
