Any Species, Any Size!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Derick. I welcome any size dog, or any other animal for that matter! I've had dogs from 2 pounds to 230 throughout my life. Growing up, my parents owned a petstore and I currently am a Companion Animal Manager at Petco so I have a lot of experience with animals of all sizes and species. I've also always been one to rescue animals and try to give as many of them as I can a chance in life. I volunteer with multiple rescue organizations throughout the Hammond area as well! No matter the breed, I will love them with all my heart <3 and I will do whatever it takes for your pupper to love me too! I hope to see you and your fur baby soon!

About Derick S.

Skills

14 years of experience
Oral medication administration
First aid/CPR
Senior dog experience
Can provide daily exercise

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs love to run throughout my fenced yard, chasing each other like their life depends on it. They also love to play with all of their toys in the house. My dogs have adapted to my work schedule and are always ready to play, sleep, and/or eat all at the same time.

Information Derick S. would like to know about your pet

It is always very important to know your dogs' aggression level, what pre-existing illnesses they may have, and of course what their favorite treats are :)

A typical day

I love to let dogs go out and smell the roses. It is a super natural thing for them to do, and I will happily let them take as much time as they need to make sure that spot is thoroughly sniffed!
