Who's afraid of Virginia Woof?

Pet care experience

I've had dogs most of my life, and in the recent time that I haven't had my own dog I have taken care of other people's dogs on a regular basis. I'm used to a wide range of dogs from small to large, chill to energetic, young to old. I believe all dogs deserve to be loved, have fun, and feel safe. I also understand that consistency is key when caring for or training your pet. Working on training Petunia not to jump all over anyone who comes to your front door? I can extend your training in our walks and encourage good behavior. Does Fido tend to bark and act aggressively toward other dogs he sees on walks? I can give him the one-on-one time and personal focus he needs to feel secure around other dogs. Through consistency, focus, positive reinforcement of good behavior, and redirection of undesired behavior, I will make sure our walks are fun, stimulating, and safe while maintaining your training efforts.

Greg is a great dog walker. He connected immediately with Lola, giving her tons of snuggles and pets. He walked at her pace and allowed her time to explore as she willed without losing control. He was very patient with her and gave her plenty of belly rubs. I would highly recommend him as a dog walker.

"Throughout our family life together, Greg helped to care for our household pets (dogs, rabbit, fish). He understood that they needed not only exercise and basic necessities, but love and attention. He has a considerate and gentle heart for his fellow creatures. He expanded his care for dogs outside our family, helping out friends and neighbors with their dogs, dog-sitting, walking and feeding."

This guy loves dogs, and dogs love him. Has the energy and patience to keep up training in progress, which was a great help in finally teaching Aretha to stop jumping up on every human being who walked through the door. 10/10 would recommend.

Greg has been walking and sitting my 2 dogs for several years now. He’s so dependable, always on time and always communicating. Sometimes, I’ve needed an emergency walk because I was running late at work, and he had been able to make it to give them a walk. When he has done overnight sitting, I feel like I can trust him with my 2 pups and don’t have to worry. I highly recommend Greg!
