Certified dog trainer here to help!

Pet care experience

I view dogs (and cats) as actual angels on earth that people are fortunate to live with. I am a certified Dog Trainer through the Ian Dunbar Institute of Dog Training, the most prestigious dog training academy in the world. I have worked with over 100 dogs and I can assist with any training you would like and will give guidance on behaviors if you seek it. I truly believe watching your pets will make me a happier and healthier person, and I will share the love I have for them to ensure they are taken care of at all hours of the day, even when you are unable to be there for your babies. I have experience working with anxious dogs, timid dogs, shy dogs, and experience working with hyperactive and aggressive dogs as well. I have a House with a fenced in grassy yard that your dogs will love. I have taken care of animals since I was 7 years old, and my love and care for them has only grown. I love big dogs and small dogs all the same. You’ll be happy you chose me, and more importantly your dog will be!

David was a great sitter for Athena! Athena really likes him from the beginning and you could tell that David genuinely loves dogs and caring for them. He gave my dog plenty of exercise. He also listened to all instructions I gave him for caring for Athena and keeping up with her training. David also responded quickly to my messages and sent me lots of photos and videos of Athena! I would definitely recommend David for sitting and will book with him again!

David is amazing, and I am so happy we found him to help take care of our pup, Izzy! He is super responsive, has been flexible with our schedules, and is such a natural with dogs. David is extremely friendly, and when he first came over to meet Izzy, he was patient and relaxed while she was excitedly jumping all over him. On their walks, he always takes the time to make sure she gets all her puppy energy out and then follows up with a detailed report of their day. We are so happy we found someone we can trust and rely on regularly - we know Izzy is in great hands with David!

I had one of the best experiences on this app with David!!! I was completely oblivious to the fact that my dog might be wary of a stranger visiting, so not only was David incredibly patient and understanding when my doofus of a dog was acting up and overly protective, but he met up with a friend of mine later to try and reconnect with my dog!!! You can clearly see how much he cares about animals and how responsible and kind he is, now I know who to call whenever I need the best care for my pooch!!!thank you so much David!! 10/10!!!!

David is a very responsible and reliable person! If you want to be sure your dog is getting all of the love and attention they need, he is your go to. He has raised and trained a dog of his own and will treat your dog with as much care and compassion as he would his own.

Information David L. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds! From pit bulls to Chihuahuas, all dogs deserve equal treatment and love! I don’t have biases or judgements and believe that every dog is amazing in their own way.

I love taking dogs to the beach, where they generally get out all their energy. There is a beautiful bay near my houseI enjoy walking around that is very dog friendly as well. I gain energy based off the dog I am with so I will always keep up with your pup!
