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).

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!
Ratings and reviews
Daniel took fantastic care of our pup! Sent lots of photos and was super communicative, we will definitely be using Daniel again next time we’re out of town and would highly recommend him!
Dan does a great job, leaves fun reports, and our dogs love him!
Daniel was awesome. The dogs were well cared for. Daniel sent pics every day and kept us updated on how the pups were doing. Thank you, Daniel! We will definitely be using you again!
Daniel took wonderful care of Zeus over the weekend and made sure he was comfortable by introducing him to his dogs before I left, which gave me so much peace of mind. He kept me updated with photos and made sure Zeus got plenty of walks and outdoor time, just like I requested. Zeus had a great time, bonded with Daniel’s dogs, and I would absolutely recommend Daniel to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!
My dog did not want to leave him. Daniel sent lots of photos and kept me informed about his stay. I would definitely use him again.
Great communication and pictures. I could see that my dog was having a great time. Very responsive when I needed to extend a day!

Schedule
*temporarily suspending boarding until I buy a house because my landlord is forcing me* 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! Reopening dog walks for the time being
