My time is primarily spent taking care of my disabled partner and our son. My schedule revolves around my partners medical appointments and needs. I'm very good at scheduling and meeting appointments so long as they aren't an immediate request.

Safety, trust & environment

I have raised dogs from pups to our current senior dog. Staying on top of their health and well-being is important. Dogs have needs and deserve to be treated fair and with consideration.

Information Nathan M. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference. I would only want to know what special needs or challenges a dog has such as medical concerns or aggression towards people/dogs.

A typical day

I can handle active dogs, and love to play fetch for days and tug-of-war. I know that can be a sensitive issue. Simple engagement activity, walks, and lots of cuddles should they need it

Pet care experience

I grew up in a retirement community, walking dogs for friendly neighbors—it wasn’t just about the steps, it was about connection. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all shapes and personalities (yes, even the occasional rogue ferret). Now, our home buzzes with two lovable goofballs—a Dutch Shepherd and a Rottweiler mix—and I co-trained my wife’s service dogs, so I know firsthand the patience and dedication it takes. My approach? Simple respect. I don’t use force or fear—just calm communication, consistency, and a few strategic belly rubs. Every dog deserves to feel safe and understood; that’s a philosophy I bring to every walk, visit, or boarding stay. Life is unpredictable—work trips, busy schedules, or just needing an extra hand. I offer reliable, judgment-free care for every furry family member, no matter their size or quirks. Trust isn’t earned —it’s built, and I’d love to build that with you.

Finding Nathan to walk Angus while I recuperate from ankle surgery has been an absolute pleasure! Angus adores Nathan—looks forward to his arrivals—and comes home absolutely delighted and well exercised after every adventure. Nathan doesn't just walk my dog—he educates him (well me really)! As a naturalist he takes him on sensory-rich adventures, noting the local wildlife and flora. And when I was non-weight bearing recuperating after surgery Nathan reported back to me their findings so that I could experience their outings vicariously. Nathan is clearly a dog lover and experienced handler you can trust.
