Highlights
Pet care experience
The Pawsome Dog Care Dad🐕
I’ve taken care of dogs for about 6 years and have worked with a wide variety of breeds with different personalities from family and friends! I’m always going the extra mile in learning more about a certain breed I’m unfamiliar with by doing extensive research on them and taking the time to work with the owner to understand their dog’s characteristics.

Safety, trust & environment
I always treat my dog with the utmost respect and she always responds with the same respect right back. I’m always rewarding dogs for commands whether it be treats or positive reinforcement and I’m always portraying a positive and vibrant attitude towards them. When going on walks, I make sure to pay extra close attention to our surroundings and the dog’s body language. If they’re aloof and not responding to commands, I try to always stay calm, patient, persistence and reinforce positive behavior with treats or verbal praise towards them. While every dog is different, I try to adapt and be flexible with every dog’s needs and I try to stay consistent with my commands and behaviors depending on the owner’s requirements.
Ratings and reviews
Kevin is the best!! I have a batshit crazy Chow Chow named Kodak Blaccc (Koda), three "C's", and seems like Kevin is the only one to calm him down over all these years. When I had my last triple bypass heart surgery and wasn't able to manhandle my beast of a dog, Kevin was the man I immediately called. He took Koda on walks to the dog beach, dog park, and out on trails and boy, did that dog enjoy that. Thank god for Kevin's help or else Koda wouldn't be here today. On one of their walks, Kevin actually fought off a pack of coyotes that ganged up on him and saved his life. And when I am feeling some separation anxiety from Koda, Kevin sends me a picture of him, then all becomes well again. 10/10 would recommend Kevin as a dog walker.
Kevin is a dog-lover who will make sure your pet is well taken care of. Whether it’s a walk or a longer stay when you’re away, you can rest assured that your pup is in good hands. He watched over our 1-year old golden retriever pup multiple times when we were away and he loves our little Mylo as much as we do. I know he has his own four-legged pup that keeps to herself and our Mylo and her have done well even with his puppy energy.
