Woofer Walker and Pupper Lover!

Pet care experience

My name is Elias and I am a student veteran currently attending UMD. I have been blessed to have had at least one dog and cat in my home for every year of my life; thanks to my parents immense love for animals and now my own. I also had the honor of serving with canine warriors during my time in the USMC. Currently, I am a proud dad of 2 dogs named Opha Mae (F) and Baloo (M) and an awesome feline roommate named Gary (M). Opha is a 7yo 60lb German/Belgian Shepherd and Baloo is a 5yo 160lb Cane Corso. My crew welcomed another forever friend this year named Calvin, a dashingly handsome now 8mo boy that my amazing wife brought into our lives! I. Love. Dogs. From my childhood with labs and retrievers, my time in the service with working dogs, and now my own furry family members, I have enjoyed training, running, loving, comforting, healing and cuddling with any size or shape of pup. I feel that our animals are our family members and our duty to care for them is a sacred and wonderful one. Therefore, I consider it an honor to be trusted with the care of anyone’s pet. I have now been proudly serving my Rover clients for over 7 years and it has been an absolute blast and a humbling privilege. I would love to meet you and your pet and add you both to my list of satisfied clients. I look forward to getting the opportunity to work with you and make your pet feel loved till you can see them again!

Thank you Elias for taking care of our Ellie today. I know she was shy at the beginning but enjoyed your company and loved her walks. We had a great day out enjoying Navy Football thanks to you.

Elias helped us out last minute when we had a cancellation and I’m so grateful for everything he did to ensure Ace was taken care of! His report cards were detailed and made us feel so comfortable knowing Ace was in great hands while we were away! We’ll definitely book Elias again in the future!!

Care: I tailor my services directly to what your pet needs. Whether you have a pup that likes to be cozy and just wants a cuddle or an athlete that needs to burn some energy, we will make it happen! I take detailed notes during our meet and walkthrough regarding their care, routine, and walking routes so that my visits can be as similar as possible to your own in order to make them as comforting and nondisruptive as possible for your pet.

Information Elias R. would like to know about your pet

No preferences at all as long as they are friendly enough! I have significant experience with pups who require extra attention so if your dog does that’s totally ok with me. I have worked with senior dogs that needed diapers and help moving, large dogs that struggle with leash manners and prey drive, and smaller dogs that were scared of wet grass. I also have experience with clicker, reward, and MWD training. Just let me know what they need ahead of time so I can be of the utmost usefulness to them!

A typical day

Run, play, walk! I have had days where I have had 8 pups and 4 cats to see and, more typically, days where I get to spend time with 3-4. I love to play catch with pups, run agility courses, jog, explore, and just relax with them. Whatever your friend needs!
