Rescue Dog Dad, In-Home Sitter
I'm a solo dad to three big dogs, two German Shepherds and a Pitbull/Shepherd mix, and dogs have been part of my life since I was 12 years old. All three are rescues and I raised each of them from puppyhood. Last year I said goodbye to my husky after 13 years together, and that kind of love doesn't go away. It just makes you want to give it to more dogs. I'm a Bay Area native who spent five years in Texas before moving back last summer. During that time I volunteered with Greater Houston German Shepherd Dog Rescue and served as a foster parent for GSDs waiting to find their forever homes. I've worked with dogs that came from neglect, shelters, and difficult situations and helped them feel safe and loved while they waited for the right family. That experience changed the way I see dogs and deepened everything I already knew about the breed. I prefer to come to your home rather than bring your dog to mine. Your dog stays in their own space, with their own smells, their own bed, their own routine. For a lot of dogs that makes all the difference, and for a lot of owners it's one less thing to worry about. I have a truck so getting around is never an issue. Parks, trails, wherever your dog loves to go, we'll get there. I've got a lot of experience with big breeds specifically. The energy, the space they need, crate training, the whole thing. I know how to handle a strong dog and I know how to make one feel safe. Whatever your dog needs, patient and slow or active and social, they're going to get real attention and genuine care.

Edison did an excellent job taking care of Koda in my home. I really appreciated that after getting to know Koda, he introduced him to a couple of his dogs and gave him some social experience. Edison understands different dog breeds and their personalities which allows him to provide personalized care.
Edison did a great job walking Oliver. Unlike any other dog walker he shared a video of the walk / run which I really liked. I’ve booked him on a daily basis
Edison is the best! Easy to work with, professional, and well versed in the area. We trust him 100% with Charlie and being in our home, and Charlie is always happy and tired afterwards. We’re keeping him on our roster, he’s a good egg.
Edison had great communication skills with the dogs. Good at handling multiple large dogs at once.

My schedule is pretty open right now, which means your dog gets real time and attention, not a quick check-in between other commitments. I’m available most days for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays at your home. The main exception is two weekends a month when I travel for work, but outside of that I’m flexible and responsive. Morning and evening walks are my default routine. I know fenced in spots around the area where dogs can actually run and roam without running into other dogs, which is great for high energy breeds that need to really burn it off. After every outdoor outing I wash paws before heading back inside.

My preference is always to come to you. Your dog stays in their own environment, sleeps in their own bed, and keeps their normal routine intact. For most dogs that alone makes a noticeable difference in how comfortable and settled they feel while you're away. Once we've had a chance to meet and your dog is comfortable with me, boarding at my place is also an option. I have three dogs of my own so I'm thoughtful about who comes into that space, but for the right dog it can work really well. I'm comfortable with medication administration, crate training, grooming, and bathing. I have a truck for vet runs or anywhere else your dog needs to go, and I'm physically capable of handling and lifting large dogs up to 120 lbs, which matters more than people think when you have a big breed.

It depends entirely on your dog. Some dogs want to run and explore, others just want company on a slow walk somewhere quiet. I know parks and open spaces around the Bay Area where dogs can roam without bumping into a crowd of other dogs, which makes a big difference for pups that get overwhelmed. If your dog loves the car we can go further, trails, new spots, wherever they seem happiest. I'm also just as happy sitting with a dog who needs calm more than adventure. Not every dog wants the same thing and figuring out what yours loves is part of the job.
