Ishan's Active Doggie Daycare
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name's Ishan or Ish. I'm 23 years old, I am a Army Vet (Infantry for 2 yrs with the 3D ID), and I am also a 2nd year college student. I love dogs, and I love to train them to be active and have purpose. I have 1 dog, a GSD, Bison, but I have years of experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I have earned more than a few repeat customers. Bison is now 5 years old(!), and like every good dog owner, I want him to be the healthiest and most active dog he can be. I take him out multiple times a day, every day, and wash him once every month (at least). Our bond has grown much stronger than I first predicted. Bison was a very anti-social dog when I rescued him - he was scared to meet other dogs, shied away from people, and acted erratic. But I have opened him up to the world in a beautiful way. Instead of tucking his tail between his legs when I take him to a park, he tugs at the leash excitedly, ready to meet new friends and play soccer (his favorite activity). He is working on being less shy around people :) I am a regular at Its Beach, Fort Funston and Ryder Park and other parks around the Peninsula and Coastal areas. I love having a good time with dogs and giving them love and attention, so don't worry when you're away, your furry loved one is getting what he/she/they needs!
Reviews
Ishan is awesome. He takes my pup on all kinds of fun adventures while I’m at work. When I get home he’s happy, calm and tired. Just what you’d want :)
This was the first time we left our 8 month old pup under somebody else's care for more than a few hours so we were naturally nervous about the experience, but Ishan and his family did a wonderful job taking care of Baron. He got plenty of daily activities, of which I got fun photo updates, and came home tired out and happy. He was actually sad to leave his new friends! We will definitely be reaching out to Ishan again if we need help caring for Baron.
Not sure this review made it to the host's page before so re-sending just in case. Ishan is an excellent dog sitter and was very good at communicating with us during our trip and making our dog feel right at home with him. He has a German Shepherd of his own whom he obviously takes wonderful care of. Our dog came home in great spirits but exhausted from all the fun he had with Ishan and Bison (hiking, playing, visiting the beach!).
Ishan was awesome!! He is so nice and took care of Max really well! Max had a blast since he had Bison with him (Ishan's German sheperd). Ishan would send me videos of how Max was doing. Can't wait to leave Max with Ishan again!

Information Ishan P. would like to know about your pet
Dogs have certain things they hate, just like we do. I would be keen on knowing what I should avoid doing or places they don't enjoy, foods they don't like, etc.
A typical day
I take dogs to Cuernavaca Park in Millbrae, the closest to my home. On better days, I will take the dogs to Fort Funston or the beaches along the coast, from Santa Cruz to San Francisco. Occasionally, we do forest trails (only after I have gained their obedience and trust)
