Help is available with your pets!

Pet care experience

I have training and experience with dogs including grooming, training and handling. I believe time spent with a dog is time well spent. I do what I love, and I believe it shows!

David was great! Took my dogs for an entire holiday weekend and they had a blast. Would trust him with my dogs anytime.

Safety, trust & environment

I exclusively practice positive reinforcement with all dogs I encounter. You get better results by treating animals with respect, understanding and kindness. My yard is fenced and safe too. All I ask is that you let me know if the dog is a digger or escape artist so I can plan accordingly.

Information David R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs/requirements so that the dog gets the best care possible. If the dog is a digger/escape artist, I need to know so I can keep a close eye on it.

A typical day

A typical day includes walking, playing in backyard and whatever the dog desires. Twice daily feeding (unless told otherwise) I try to provide a restful, low stress environment in an effort to reduce any feeling of separation anxiety.
