Any dog is the best kind of dog

Pet care experience

From an early age I always had an intrest and love for ldogs, I constantly expanded my knowledge regarding dogs and how to properly raise them. On vacations in the Philippines I was always given a task by my father to raise a puppy for the duration of my stay. In high school i volunteered at my local animal shelter to gain hands on experience with dog care. Eventually I decided to start working towards adopting a dog of my own. Ever since i had adopted Koda I put in a lot of time to properly raise him and ensure he has a good life. My dog has a flexible daily routine so that we can accomodate our clients schedule for their pups and ensure a good stay.

Derick was fantastic! He spent a night house-sitting my dog Jordy. Derick sent me constant updates throughout his stay, and even a few adorable pictures. I returned home to a clean apartment and a happy pup. Would definitely recommend!

Derick and his roommates took great care of my puppy. I was nervous leaving him overnight for the first time, but Derick was awesome at sending my photos and answering my questions. Our puppy came home tired from lots of play time and super happy. Will definitely use Derick again and recommend him.
