About Niels V.

Safety, trust & environment

The most important thing is to listen to the owners so that I understand each pet's tendencies and needs. I treat each pet with kindness and respect.

Information Niels V. would like to know about your pet

I'll probably be walking your dog along with my own. If your dog is reactive around other dogs we might not be a good match.

A typical day

My dog loves to hunt and patrol the neighborhood for rats, so a typical evening walk will include a tour of the neighborhood garbage cans. Sometimes I hang out with her at the field next to the wading pool, which is an unofficial dog park. If your dog likes to play fetch I will be happy to indulge her.

Pet care experience

I've been a dad to Gwen, my 3 y/o spaniel/hound/Chihuahua mix, since she was 8 weeks old. Prior to that I was a dad to Eric, domestic shorthair cat, for 8 years. I recently added Jolene to my family, a 65 lb Weimaraner who I typically walk for 45-60 minutes in the morning and evening.
