Lifetime Pet Owner And Trainer

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life. When I was 13, my mom started a dog rescue nonprofit where ASPC officers would locate and extract abandoned and stray dogs and then give them to my mom and I for rehabilitation. We would then advertise them in hopes of finding them a good home. As part of this nonprofit, we would train the dogs to be house broken and to follow basic verbal instructions. Throughout this program, we would even sometimes get puppies that were not even a few days old where we would have to bottle feed them and keep them warm. My grandparents and I also used to run a program where we would train golden retrievers to be guide dogs.

This was the first time we had utilized Rover, and we were going to be 3000 miles away from our dog so we were a little worried. However Dylan put all those fears to rest for us. He even came by for a meet and greet on his own time. Dylan took care of our Kato Husky just as if he was caring for his own! We were thrilled with his professionalism, service and genuine caring nature. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is in need of excellent care for their pet while they’re away. We will 100% be using his services again. Thank you Dylan for allowing us to enjoy our time away without having to worry about our Kato, Candy & Jon

Ygor is a rescue and immediately loved Dylan. He was on time and a great communicator. Hopefully, I can make Dylan our regular sitter!

Dylan took absolutely wonderful care of our cat, Theo, while we were away for over two weeks. It’s the longest time we have ever been away from Theo and I was very anxious but Dylan helped me relax and enjoy myself due to his regular updates that included photos and videos. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. He’s extremely responsible and very nice and Theo made friends with him immediately.

Information Dylan S. would like to know about your pet

I have owned dogs and cats since birth. All dogs I have owned I have trained personally. From the age of 13, my family and I worked alongside Los Angeles ASPCA officers and would house dogs and cats that they would find abandoned. Some of these dogs were wild, and I’ve never had contact with humans before. Our jobs were to get them acclimated to human interaction, and advertise these dogs so that they could find a loving home.

A typical day

I prefer Neighborhood streets where the speed limit is 25 or below. Love and affection are great ways to make dogs happy, but I also am able to be firm and fair with dogs.
