I treat all dogs like they were mine. I spend a lot of time with dogs because I have a very flexible schedule. I like to have dogs on a routine of 3 walks of day which I document. I like to make things fun sometimes and play In my fenced backyard. I always want your pet to feel loved and secured.

Information Emmanuel M. would like to know about your pet

I love all pets, but I would like to know if the dog has any injuries or health issues before caring for your pet. I would also like to know if your dog is good with other dogs and has been well socialized. I deal with reactive dogs but will not accept dogs that are not socialized to humans. It is also helpful to know if your dog is scared of any objects such as bikes or tries to chase squirrels or birds.

A typical day

I walk everywhere, whether it is on the sidewalk, the park, or the dog park. I also love playing fetch with dogs, running with them in the dog park, and letting them interact with other dogs but I am also cautious. I also have a backyard where I play with them either fetch or hide and seek. I like to go on long nature walks and get them a good amount of exercise.

Pet care experience

Weekly Scheduled Walks (Mon–Sat) I walk in any weather! Rain, snow, heat, or cold—your dog will always get the care and exercise they need. I have years of experience caring for many breeds of all ahe’s and temperaments, including many reactive dogs (about 80% of my clients). I take the time to understand each dog’s behavior and build trust. I also love working with puppies, giving them the right mix of playtime and structured walks based on their age and energy. I’ve had to pick up pitbulls mid walk because of loose dogs running towards us. This happened a few times. Things happen but I assure to keep your pets safe. Having worked for a dog-walking company, I’m comfortable walking multiple dogs at once and have experience with all breeds and sizes. I also provide cat care. Caring for pets is more than a job—it’s my passion. I send regular photos and videos to pet parents because I know how much peace of mind that brings. Every dog I work with is treated with extra love and affection . I am also currently pursuing my certification to become a professional dog trainer. A typical day includes a long morning walk, midday playtime, and an evening adventure walk. For house-sitting, I spend most of my time with your pets, keeping them active, happy, and loved while treating your home with respect. Every walk is more than exercise—it’s an opportunity to bond, build confidence, and make your dog’s day exciting and enriching.

Emmanuel was great with my large, old, somewhat reactive pit bull. He sent tons of photos, videos and updates and is very sweet- exactly who i want my beloved dog to spend time with. Highly recommend!

Great dog walker! He truly loves what he does, and it shows—our dog is always happy and well cared for. Reliable, communicative, and highly recommended!

Emmanuel walked and gave medicine to our Yorkie. He was on time, sent nice pictures, and gave meds correctly. He was even available for a meet-and-greet prior to the walk, which we really appreciated. We will have Emmanuel back for future walks!

I highly recommend Manny’s services. My dog Leo can be a tough one while he walking since he quite a puller. Manny was dedicated to the job and perform great ! I will definitely choose him again.
