Unconditional Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I have worked with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and stand firm in the belief that there are no bad dogs. I have raised my own two large-breed dogs and am devoted to their health, comfort, and well-being. I will do anything it takes to make a dog happy, and love being around all kinds of animals. Before raising my two dogs, I took care of three senior dogs, and saw to their care and daily interactions. As such, my experience is varied, and ranges from minor aggression issues to separation anxiety to raw-fed and special diet pets. Cuddling and spoiling pets are two of my favorite pastimes, and I'm pretty much a pro at that. I am also good at reading the general body language of a dog to determine its comfort levels.

Dylan has a natural aptitude for working with animals, and pays attention to body language cues that help guide positive interactions with dogs. He has experience following through with specific training recommendations and implementing them with his own dogs, and is flexible in learning and working with a variety of canine personalities. I have trusted him around my dogs for years and I am proud to see the good work he does with his own. If you are looking for someone to care for your dogs in a positive, patient way that values your animal's state of mind and comfort, Dylan will fulfill that role.

I cannot commend Dylan enough for his work as a dog caregiver. Dylan invests a massive amount of time into making sure pups of all sizes are loved and appreciated. He personally has two dogs: one is a NAID and the other is a rather fluffy Shepherd variant. I've been around quite a few dog owners in my life, and let me tell you: these dogs are well taken care of. They have such beautiful coats from their raw diet and are well exercised via long hikes in the woods every weekend. Dylan takes the dogs for training sessions so that they know all the appropriate dog etiquette. These dogs are obsessed with their owner, and they return the love they see from him. His care does not simply extend to his own two larger pups. Recent, Dylan and his partner fostered a small dog who needed a little extra love - in addition to a stricter diet. He saw that the little guy needed a loving home, and he made sure to accommodate. But beyond his unparalleled care for dogs, Dylan is truly an amazing individual. His empathy and understanding have improved not only my life but the lives of everyone he meets. Outgoing and kind, Dylan will provide the best care for your pup while making you feel comfortable. Dylan simply wants happiness for dogs of all kinds - and their owners. Your best friend will soon be in loving hands!

Information Dylan S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the general personality of the dog, any training it has, and if it has any aggression issues or situations that should be avoided.

A typical day

Walks around parks and local greenspaces are always a favorite for the dogs I walk, and I would play with the dog however it prefers - catch, running, roughhousing, whatever keeps the dog happy and well-exercised.
