Pet care experience

Experienced/Reliable Pet Care

8+ years of hands-on pet care experience. From a young age, I’ve looked after dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments As an athlete and boxer, I naturally enjoy staying active What sets me apart is my calm, patient personality and genuine ability to connect with both pets and owners. I take time to learn each animal’s individual needs, routines Whether it’s exercise, medication reminders, feeding, playtime , and comfort levels so they feel safe and happy. SPECIAL SKILLS -I’m also equipped with a truck for safe transportation to vet appointments, parks, in addition to services I offer professional baths & grooming at local pet stores. Fully comfortable with multi-pet households and all types of animals. I treat every pet with the same care I give my own. Neighbors, friends, and family have consistently trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and provide companionship for their pets.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets get constant supervision, structured playtime, potty breaks, and meals on their normal schedule. I’m experienced with crate training if needed and always keep a calm, secure environment. In your home I follow your exact instructions for feeding, walks, and any medication. Safety and trust come first

I cannot recommend Dominick highly enough. He’s honestly the closest thing I’ve seen to a real-life dog whisperer. I have both a German Shepherd and a Pit Bull, and from day one he made them feel completely comfortable and at ease. What’s even more impressive is that my dogs never really connected with my previous dog walker, but they absolutely love Dominick. They get excited every time they see him, which says more than any review ever could. He’s professional, respectful, reliable, and genuinely cares about the dogs he works with. You can tell he understands dog behavior and knows how to build trust with them. It’s rare to find someone who can handle strong, intelligent breeds so naturally and confidently. On top of that, his pricing is more than fair for the level of service he provides. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy who treats your dogs like his own, Dominick is the person to call. 5/5 stars. Highly recommended.

Dominick took great care of my Columbian Tegu and Bearded Dragon, while I was away. He followed their feeding and lighting schedule, made sure they had fresh water, clean sand and kept an eye on their overall well being. It's hard to find someone willing to care for your reptiles, it was a huge relief knowing they were in good hands while I was out of town. I highly recommend Dom for all of your pet needs.

Dom was great! You can tell he genuinely love animals. My dog absolutely adores him and comes home happy and tired every time. Thank you for being so caring, patient, and trustworthy with our dog!

Dominick has always been incredibly patient, reliable, and caring with animals. He’s very active and athletic, and he used to regularly run my high-energy husky, so he’s especially great with dogs that need more than just a quick walk or basic exercise. He genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and treats every pet like family. He’s calm, trustworthy, responsible, and very attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. I’ve personally seen how naturally dogs connect with him, and he’s always patient and caring with them. I would absolutely trust him with my pets and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable, compassionate, and active pet care.

Schedule

I’m very flexible with my schedule and structure my days around pet care. I typically do morning walks and drop-ins before 9am, midday check-ins, and evening visits after 5pm. On weekends I’m wide open for overnights or longer sitting. Pet care is my priority — I plan my routine so your dog always gets consistent, quality time without feeling rushed

Important info I like to know ahead of time: • Any medical conditions, allergies, or medications (including dosage and schedule) • Behavioral quirks, fears, or triggers (e.g. scared of thunder, doesn’t like other dogs, etc.) • Exact feeding schedule, food brand/amount, and any treats they can/cannot have • Potty schedule and any commands they know • Favorite toys, activities, or things that help them relax • Emergency contacts and your vet’s info The more details you give me, the better I can give your pet the care they deserve. I’m very adaptable and will follow your instructions to the letter
