Availability

I am currently on the job market after being DOGE’d, so I thought I would spend my time walking a dog(e). I am available on the weekdays, and walking dogs would fit in seamlessly with my schedule. I am a very active individual and have no problem taking a dog on however long of a walk it may need.

Safety, trust & environment

I am very patient and will let dogs be curious, but can also command them when needed. I love to play with dogs, whether it is fetch, giving them toys, letting them socialize and interact with other dogs. I have experience with a reactive dog, so I am very attentive to a dog’s behavior patterns.

Information Jefferson G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any certain behavioral patterns I should know about beforehand. My family dog is reactive, so I am experienced in being patient in getting a dog acclimated to a perceived fear. I also know when to notice a dog’s shift in behavior, so I can make sure your dog is safe at all times.

A typical day

I love to walk to parks and let dogs investigate certain smells, or have them socialize with other dogs. With my own dogs, I love playing fetch, taking them on walks and car rides, and letting them play with their toys.

Lover of dogs and park walks

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs since I was eight years old. I have experience with reactive dogs, and I am understanding of those with certain needs. I currently do not have any dogs, but I helped raise all of my family dogs, would love to own one for myself, and would treat any dog I care after as my own.

Jefferson takes great care of my big guy. He jumped in for a last minute need and now is our weekly walker. During our first meeting he took diligent notes which showed me his high level of care. Definitely will use again.
