Pet care experience

ATTN: Unfortunately no longer available for services. When and if I decide to come back, I’ll be sure to change my profile to available. Cheers! There are only two things that I look forward to after a 24 hr shift at the fire station, seeing my beautiful fiance and coming home to my two (dogs) who I consider my sons! My family currently consists of a 1 year old corgi named Naruto and a 2 year old chihuahua named Donkey. If there's anything I love doing, it's spending time with those two. I've had dogs in my family for as long as I can remember. I truly believe that dogs bring happiness to people's lives. If needed, I can definitely take your beloved dog out for a walk (or run), play fetch, or any other physical activity to get my new canine buddy moving. Of course, if you simply need someone at home with your dog, that's something I can accomplish as well. Any other specific requests I can definitely try to accommodate. Due to my odd schedule at the fire service, I would be available on different days on different weeks. My fiancé Kathleen stays at home full time so we work together when having dogs over for overnight boarding. We have a fenced in backyard so your dog(s) will have somewhere to run around. They can also play with our dogs in the backyard as well which is super fun! However, I believe the best way to work with my availability is simply to have communication with you, the client. As far as special skills go, I'm not familiar with being a huge dog trainer or teaching dogs tricks. I can say definitely say I have the physicality to take your dog on walks/runs, and the energy to play with your dog for however long is needed. I find playing fetch and tug of war fascinating and fun myself. Feel free to reach out to me and hopefully I can be of service to you. Teamwork makes the dream work. Cheers! -David

David and his fiancé did an excellent job of watching and taking care of my little guy! They have a great space at their house and plenty of yard for you dog to run around in. They were also super accommodating when I had to change my pickup time. Overall, it was a great experience!

Our dog Honey loves her walks and games of fetch with David, and it is a lifesaver for us with busy work schedules! Very reliable, trustworthy, and his flexible schedule is a huge help.
