Pet care experience

Hello fellow dog people! I have had a few years worth of experience caring for other friend's dogs, 2 years on Rover, and 4 years with my current dog. I am experienced with teaching basic commands, socialization as well as correcting unwanted behavior. A few things that the military taught me that I believe has helped me with animals are, patience, time management, self awareness, and a deep/disciplined ability to love and care. Long walks, going on hike trails, exercising, and making the best out of "play time" are some other things that I too enjoy doing daily with my dog. I always ensure whomever’s pet I am with is hydrated, fed (according to their appropriate feeding schedule), and well taken care of.

Luchi Boy had a great walk with Gerardo this afternoon. He came home tired and happy. Gerardo was very good about reinforcing all the training Luchi has had and I described to him. He had read the notes on my pet before he arrived. He was very efficient and caring. I will request him again.

I keep awareness of the pet’s food/water intake, whereabouts, any health concerns and their mood as well. I respect whoever’s space I am in as well as the pet’s space. I try my best to live by the golden rule said by Jesus The Christ: “So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you”.

Information Gerardo O. would like to know about your pet

I like to accommodate as best as possible so please feel free to let me know about anything and everything that I should know in regards to your pooch.

A typical day

We will stroll our way around the neighborhood practicing good walking techniques and reinforcing commands. We will visit any nearby (dog friendly) parks, trails, and when possible, play catch and go on short runs. Overall getting a good days worth of exercise while making the best of each moment is what I aspire to do on a daily basis.
