Dogs really are our best friends

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 6. I started watching my Uncle’s two boxers when I was 6. Since that time I’ve had multiple dogs of my own from a small Boston terrier to the two 60+ lb pit bulls I have now. I would also go assist my girlfriend who is a vet tech in caring for the sick and boarding dogs in the vet office on nights and weekends.

David has watched my dog and several of our friends’ dogs over the years ranging from elderly and lazy dogs to wild young bull terriers who are a ball of energy. He’s managed to care for and keep them happy and healthy without any issues ever. I highly recommend him.

David has always had a special way with animals. They can sense when someone really cares. He knows that they are just not pets but members of the family. He cares and tends to them and they respond to that. He will always make sure they know there is someone there to take care of them when their own family is away.

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs are crate trained but they usually are free roaming the house, so I am comfortable and familiar with either method. Due to experience in my job and helping at the vet clinic I am extremely comfortable in managing any medication or diet needs of a dog. I’ve used multiple types of leashes, collars, and harness. I’m always sure to double check that everything is picked up, put away, and secured prior to leaving a residence.

Information David Q. would like to know about your pet

If there is anything I can do to make your dogs time with me more fun and stress free I would love to know. No detail is too small because of it’s important to you it’s important to me.

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks so they can get out and explore their neighborhood and all the wonderful smells. I also enjoy taking them to dog parks and letting them play with all their friends. There’s nothing better than throwing a ball and playing a little fetch. The best way to the end the day is cuddled up on the couch snuggling with a pup.

I’ve been a firefighter/paramedic for the last 8 years unfortunately due to an injury I am not able to continue serving. As I’m not currently working my schedule is completely wide open and what better way to supplement income than spending time walking, caring, and playing with dogs.
