Athletic Honest Empathetic

Pet care experience

I enjoy being there to help facilitate dogs naturally active lifestyles. I grew up with springer spaniels which are highly active bird dogs, I also enjoyed caring for other breeds (German shepards, labs etc). Competing in skiing took me away from dogs which made me miss them but taught me an active and organized lifestyle. Ive had experience house sitting/walking dogs for many years, including many different sizes, needs and temperaments. If your dog just needs company, or a full work out I am capable. Taking care of the needs specific to each dog, I plan on making happy owners and doggies! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I look forward to meeting you and your dog! All the best Hans

I have known Hans for over 15 years now. He has always been straight forward and honest by nature. About 5 years ago we lived in a house with a few other people. One of the roommates had a very large and rambunctious dog. His name was rocky. Hans was the only one of us, including the owner, who could calm rocky down when he got excited. I'm not sure why but Hans just had a way with him. I would trust Hans to baby sit my dog any day. He will do a great job.

Hans was my roommate for almost a year. He loves my dog as much as I do! He is reliable and very responsible with both my pets (cat and a chocolate lab). There were many times when I would work late and Hans would always think about Rosie and take her for walks and feed her. With his love for animals, especially dogs, I think that this job is perfect for him! Any dog he cares for would be spoiled as if they were his own.

I have had Hans take my dog Bella on several walks and he has also taken care of her over weekends and he has done a great job. Bella loves when she gets to hang out with Hans! You can tell she is well taken care of. He is also reliable and show up when he says he will. I would recommend Hans for all your dog waking needs :)

Our family met Hans Gardener when he was a member of the ski team. He is a great athlete with a positive attitude and a dedicated work ethic. Leaving Zermatt, our 120 pound Bernese Mt Dog, with Hans was always stress free - for both the dog and our family. Zermatt trusted him and didn't even seem to notice we were leaving when Hans came to take over. Hans was always trustworthy and professional and just had an obvious love for animals. I always appreciated coming home to a contented well cared for dog.
