Pet care experience

Golden Retriever Dad/Work from Home

I grew up with always having 4 big dogs in the house. Since I moved out of my parents house I have had Maverick my Golden Retriever. Prior to owning Maverick I was an EOD K9 Handler with a Belgian Malinois named Sonja nicknamed “The Maligator” with her super high energy. When I left that company I had to give her back so that’s when I adopted Maverick as a puppy. Growing up I would walk the neighborhood dogs as families went on vacation. I have experience with a variety of dogs and having Maverick in my apartment, he is very well trained so if your dog loves to play he will certainly play with your dog. He also has great social queues as well where if your dog is low energy and doesn’t want to play he respect that as well. I have worked professionally with an EOD K9 for 2 years and have experience handling 2-3 dogs at a given time with ease. Any wishes you have when I watch or walk your dog I will certainly follow as I would hope whoever watches my dog would respect my wishes as well. I spend most of my nights sitting on the couch watching Netflix or Philadelphia Sports with my dog and there’s always room for one more dog if you need a night or a few days for someone to watch them

Safety, trust & environment

Although I do not have a fenced in yard, I take Maverick on multiple half mile walks throughout the day on the Schuylkill River Trail in Conshohocken. I am not the biggest fan of dog parks as I have seen many irresponsible dog owners bring dogs who probably shouldn’t be interacting with other dogs so that would never be an issue. If for whatever reason I am not at my apartment, I have my furbo camera that notifies me of anything and I can watch my dog at any time. I never leave my apartment for more than an hour or 2 anyways but I like having that for my peace of mind

Schedule

I currently work as a Sales Development Representative and work from home. I have two 2 hour call blocks a day and admin work in between. So that gives me plenty of time to take my dog and your dog on a walk!
