Mandatory Office Return? I can help

Pet care experience

I have been attached at the hip with one or more animals since my middle school days and have loved every second of it. I grew up with two dogs in the home (1 large and 1 small breed) and was always the go-to for neighbors when pet-sitting or daily check-ins were needed. I have trained several dogs through-out my life and finally have a puppy of my own that has rekindled a flame of pet-care. I understand that different breeds require different attention and that one dogs attention triggers aren't the same as another. I am patient and respectful with both the parent(s) and the dog and want to create a relationship that is beneficial to our now changing world.

Fantastic! Kirk was great with my 2 rambunctious dogs, one who’s a puppy. I will definitely be calling Kirk again

Kirk is great with our puppy Piper who can be a bit apprehensive with strangers. She comes home from her walks happy and exhausted!

Extremely reliable and dependable guy. Adores all dogs and truly has a way with them. Kirk is an excellent trainer, exemplified by his own sweet and gentle chocolate lab. Frequently asked by strangers if he is a service dog.

We had a great experience with Kirk watching our 3 year old corgi, Jasper. Kirk arrived on time and made sure we knew where he would walk Jasper. He also came super prepared with bags and treats to make the walk easy.

Safety, trust & environment

My goal is the ease the transition from work from home to office life that your dog has grown accustomed to. I will walk your dog on an agreed upon route around your neighborhood to insure they are comfortable with the new daily lifestyle as you go back to the office. As the relationship grows, I can adjust the route or add park play to make the walkings more lively at the discretion of the owners. Check-ins will be in house or home adjacent to keep the same routine as if you were right there. We will discuss where and when your dog can and can't go and what they can and can't play with. All to help you think about one less thing while you are away.

I am working full-time as a dog walking and can be there when you need it. I understand how many employers want you back in the office even though you have gotten your work done at home with your companion by your side. This is where I can help. I can help bridge the gap between your time away and your dogs needs. I have a COVID puppy so I understand how tough it is. I want the schedule to help you as you return to work so my hours are 10am to 3pm Monday through Friday.
