Part-time student who loves pups

Pet care experience

I would describe myself as a part-time student and full-time dog lover. At 13 I started raising my own puppy and have spent my entire life around dogs, as most of our extended family has one or more dachshunds. I live an active lifestyle in Ukrainian village with my girlfriend. Our apartment is near Humboldt park where your pup will be able to go for long walks and enjoy a game of catch. As a recent college graduate that is fairly new to the area, I am excited to make the most of my time here in the city. Your dog will receive the care and attention they deserve in a comfortable and convenient environment. I'll keep them fit by taking them on runs and bike rides in the area while accommodating less able pups or seniors in the parks nearby. I am happy to provide basic grooming services and will go to every length to make sure your dog feels at home! I have rehabilitated abused dogs and found homes for many more. Puppy love is the best kind, so treat them to someone who appreciates their company and will love them just as much as you do!

First time Kahlua stayed with Gordon for an extended weekend and she had quite the adventure with him! Kahlua is an older dog who can occasionally be grumpy or particular, and Gordon was so great about it. He was very communicative and responsive. I had no stress leaving Kahlua with him and would definitely use him again!

Gordan was FANTASTIC. He gave amazing updates, really cared for Doug and wanted to make sure he was doing activities that made Doug feel comfortable. I had never left my bud with someone he didn't know before hand, and when I came to pick him up I felt like they were two old friends. Gordon is awesome.

Information Gordon K. would like to know about your pet

I like to be informed of a dog's preferences, comfort in public, and energy levels before a stay so that I can plan activities accordingly. I love all breeds but have a strong preference for dachshunds (we've had that at home since I was born), as well as pitbulls and boxers due to their energy level. All breeds will be shown equal amounts of affection and attention!

A typical day

We will go on walks, runs, and/or bike rides around the neighborhood, in the arboretum, in Woodland Park, and on campus depending on their abilities and temperament.
