Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Derek and I would be thrilled to help you and your dog! I am an avid runner and hiker and can provide exercise for the most energetic of pups, but I am also happy to entertain and chill with the more cuddly and relaxing breeds. Not only do I enjoy visiting and volunteering at local Humane Societies and other rescue associations, but I am knowledgeable and experienced. I have done work for and had training with pet brands such as Purina, Bayer, Kong, Hill's, Nature's Recipe, and Pet Safe. My entire life I've been around a wide variety of dogs from newborn Shih Tzus and Great Danes to senior Rhodesian Ridgebacks and Border Collies. I love dogs and dogs love me!
Reviews
Derek was incredible! I was staying in downtown Louisville for a trade show and wasn't sure how difficult it would be to find somebody who could Droppin and walk my two large dogs on a moments notice. He tracked the distance and gave me photo updates after every visit. The dogs are always very happy and tired when I arrived later.
Derek was very easy to coordinate with and our two had a blast with his two dogs, they came home happy and sleepy. Derek took them for a walk and let them play, took very good care of our dogs. I would definitely recommend him/use him again.
Derek is very knowledgeable of dogs and their needs in nutrition, activity, grooming, and affection. He possess the patience and intuition to insure that your canine is well cared for while with him.
Derek is awesomely patient and caring with pets! He's great with dogs, who seem to be as crazy about him as he is about them (which is a lot)! He's genuine and experienced, and I would trust him with my dog anytime.
