HI, Larry has been my neighbor for several yrs. He was walked Kirbee for 3 yrs every day. He has made her a better dog. She was a rescue and he has made her more friendly, not to nip and bark at everyone. He loves on her and talks to her every morning. I completely trust Larry with Kirbee and being inside my house when I'm not home. He's been a true friend to Kirbs and me.

Larry is our next-door neighbor and we have watched him walk his, and our neighbors, dogs for many years through rain, sleet, and snow! He has a special place in his heart for all four-legged fur friends. Larry knows the neighborhood dogs names more so than their pet-parent's names! He is known to pass out dog treats at Halloween for every pup passing by - there are many, many regulars and grow in numbers each year. Your fur baby will be friends with Larry before he has an opportunity to chat with you! Rest assured your best friend(s) will be in the very best of care when they are with Larry!

I’ve known Larry for 14 years, as a close neighbor. He’s been a parent of dogs the entire time. He has a genuine compassion for animals, a caring that I witness daily. We trust him completely with our precious furry child. He has always reliably taken care of him when we were unable.

Safety, trust & environment

I own my house. Have lived here 34 years. Got a fenced in backyard. There's a doggy door for my 2 dogs. Dogs are welcome on the couch or bed, but they usually lay on the floor or in their kennels. One of our neighbors has a dog we take with us on our daily walks. When another neighbor is unable to get off work, we go into her house and let her dog out of her kennel and walk him or just spend time with him. I'm wiling to walk your dogs, but of course, we will adhere to any rules and instructions. We always carry extra poop bags.

I have more experience with bigger dogs like labs and retrievers, but I do walk and protect my neighbor's 17 lb.dog. I haven't had much experience with dogs over 100 lbs., but no matter what size or disposition of your dog, I will tend to him with time, patience and love
