My GF tells ppl I’m a Dog Whisperer
Pet care experience
I have extensive experience with multiple dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I will treat your dog like royalty and nothing less. I love all animals, and I am extremely patient with every dog I've ever encountered. I have two 13 yr old females, and love taking care of other dogs. A pet is a member of the family in my heart! I have been using Rover for the past six years from the Seattle area to my hometown of Houston, and I have enjoyed the app very much. My success with clients has stemmed from a mutual love for animals, and great communication. I am a trustworthy person and strive to employ the highest level of honesty and dedication to maintain positive outcomes. I moved back to Houston during the pandemic after changing careers following a happy tenure being an English teacher and an ESL specialist from the preK to 8th grade range. I have a fenced in yard with shade and a deck, along with ample space inside for crates or bed areas for your pup! I enjoy working with dogs and their owners very much. Thank you for your consideration!
Reviews
Betsy had a great time with Edwin. He was easy to communicate with and his dogs are super sweet. We will definitely try to board with him again!!
Edwin is incredible. We had an emergency leak at the house while we were gone and he helped make sure the house was ok and helped with the guys that came in to fix it so we didn’t have to come home early. Our pup is always super happy to spend time with Edwin. We really appreciate him looking out for the dog & our house while we’re gone.
Edwin was a great house sitter! He walked our dog each day and ensured our cats were happy!
Edwin took great care of Captain while I was out of town for 11 days!! He’s very responsive and flexible, and I really appreciated getting several pictures of Captain during his stay. Edwin easily accommodated Captain’s routine and I’ll definitely board with him again!!

I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run around or lounge. I am very attentive to any pet owner's needs and routines. I am very flexible to the schedules of other households, and I know although dogs can have similar routines that every dog needs their own special TLC!

Information Edwin C. would like to know about your pet
I love all breeds. Big dogs are my favorite, but the speed of a smaller pooch always amazes me! I would like to know whether the dog is food aggressive, toy aggressive, or protective of their owner. Any allergies, conditions, or injuries the dog might have will be necessary to make sure they are safe at all times! Preferences and dislikes are always important to be mindful of, and I will follow the explicit instructions of pet owners to the letter.
A typical day
If your dog loves to run, he will be in very willing and able hands! I am a very energetic, athletic person who loves running with big dogs, sprinting with little dogs who might think they're big dogs, and playing any and all games for those more distracted "proverbial puppies!" I am very attentive to every dog's needs, personalities, and routines. I am a very verbal person and love talking to dogs. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Education from the University of St. Thomas, and i continued my education towards a Master's degree from City University of Seattle in Tacoma before the pandemic brought me back to Houston.I feel like every dog should enjoy themselves as much as possible, while knowing when to let them RECHARGE with necessary downtime, bathing time, or water bowl time! I am always willing to walk a restless pup, and not let them stay cooped up inside or on their beds all day. I also enjoy the dog parks and play areas in the Heights where I have lived all my life and around Houston. I enjoy spending as much time as possible around animals and the outdoors. I can commit to spending dedicated hours directly with every dog in my care. A normal day with me would be the wake up routine before feeding. I normally walk my dogs before I feed them, but I follow the directions of the owners for each dog I care for. I like to have the radio/TV on most days to keep my dogs entertained. If anyone around me does not like animals, they are not around me for long! I like a positive environment to stay content, and I don’t raise my voice in a shouting or screaming way. I believe animals respond more favorably to a calm and happy presence and engage more with a happily firm voice filled with praise. Barking is always a sign of something, so my ears stay tuned to every sound a dog makes! I will not instill any habits or behaviors contrary to an owner's parenting style, or that would in the least bit negatively impact a dog.

I work part time close to home, and I am very flexible for walks and potty breaks whether early or late. I am a homebody, I love the outdoors, exercise, and Houston Sports! I enjoy spending lots of time with my own two dogs, but they are very low maintenance in case I need to drop by clients' homes or house sit.
