Pet care experience

Stay pawsitive 🐶

Life long dog owner here! Whether your dog is small or often gets mistaken for a horse, I'd be happy to take them for their daily walks. I've formed strong connections with my household animals since I was a kid and would love to get to know you and yours. I currently have a flexible schedule and am open to accommodate your needs as a pet owner. Just give me a heads up and we can work it out. Open to different training styles and will be sure to follow any instructions you've given for your dog's care.

Safety, trust & environment

I take safety and trust seriously. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. Walks are always on-leash, and I pay close attention to surroundings to keep your dog safe. I’m comfortable with crates if needed, and I make sure food, water, and medication instructions are followed carefully. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for like family.

Pat has developed a great relationship with Henry and took him on a very lengthy walk. It’s great knowing that Henry is getting attention and exercise while I’m gone.

Pat took great care of Henry. Henry warmed up to him quickly, even sleeping in bed with him and getting excited he returned to the house. Pat also had to deal with the February blizzard while I was away; he cleared a path out back in the snow for Henry to use and kept up with walks despite the snow, and coordinated with the snow removal service I hired. He sent frequent photos and updates.

Pat did a great job taking care of the pups while we were away. We felt so safe leaving our babies and home in Pat’s care. Highly recommend hiring Pat for all your pet needs.

Patrick did an awesome job with our pups, Isabella and Chance, today on their walk! They loved him so much they didn't want him to leave. Will definitely be booking again after the holidays. Thank you Patrick!

Please let me know how your dog would behave in a dog park / social setting, or if that type of thing interests you in the first place. Happy to stick to the neighborhood or a more rigid path. Knowing whether they pull or are prone to try and chase small animals would be good too.
