Pet care experience
I've taken care of dogs since I was a kid (At my house it was 2 big love-able labs). I love taking care of all dogs, from little bitty Chihuahuas to big ol' german shepherds. I've got a knack for helping nervous dogs get comfortable around me: Being welcoming and non-threatening, getting down on the floor, letting them sniff me and allowing them to get to know me on their own terms. I love playing with dogs and going on walks or, if they're old and can't easily get around, just giving them lots of love. I am not trained in pet first aid, but I have the instincts and experience to look for unusual behavior to consult you about. If they're trained, I will make sure to stick to the commands you've have trained them with. I can also deal those rambunctious pups, the ones that pull on leash or need close supervisions so they don't rip up your favorite pillows. I love dogs and would be delighted to take great care of yours. I'm a young journalist, 25 years old, and originally from Chapel Hill, NC. You can find some of my work at WAMU 88.5 FM (DC's local NPR station).
Reviews
Daniel was great! He asked many detailed questions in order to prep for taking great care of Mochi. So patient and sweet!
Daniel was great! It was our first time using a dog walker and everything went very smoothly. Daniel handled everything like a pro. Thanks!
Daniel is a outstanding dog walker and took great care of my young puppy during the day. He is flexible with hours, great at keeping the dog's schedule and writes a very detailed and observant report each session. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area.
Daniel is absolutely in love with dogs and is a great caregiver for them. He grew up with two giant labs so he can handle large dogs with ease. He's very attentive to their needs and would make a great sitter.
