Pet, walk or run it's about the dog

Pet care experience

Howdy! I have had pets all my life from cats to tarantulas. But dogs are my favorite as they are always glad to see you and love you unconditionally. They never fail to amaze me with their personalities. I have personally owned German Shepard's, a Cattle dog, a Rottweiler, Mixed breeds, Pugs and now French Bull dogs. Some started as puppies and others I have adopted were "seniors". One very special Pug I adopted from the Yavapai Humane Society was abused and had special needs. Regardless, everyone of them became a part of my family and my life! I am a retired police officer, I possessed a DPS Level 1 Fingerprint Clearance and I was trained by the Yavapai Humane Society as a (yellow) Volunteer Dog Walker where I was trained to walk all sorts of dog under a variety of conditions. As a trained dog walker, I learned to read the dog and make adjustments through positive motivations. I love the outdoors even more when I am with a dog, whether it's to pet, play, walk or run, it's all about the dog and understanding it's needs not mine.

My pup had a great time walking with PJ! Great flexible schedule and she loved the homemade dog treats!

Tucker loves his visits and walks with Peter. He is always smiling when I get home from work. Peter is very communicative and even sends me pictures of Tucker from his walk. Peter has been very reliable. He takes the time to ask all of the important questions about your pet. I would recommend Peter to others.

Pj is great. He met Bailey the day before and took lots of time with her today. Highly recommended!

Safety, trust & environment

They say a picture is worth a 1000 words, but it also can provide you the peace of mind that your dog is in good hands. Typically I usually send 3 pictures, which means I carry my cell phone with my on our walks. This allows you not only Real Time pictures of your pup on a walk, but if you need to contact me it can be done while I out with your dog. The radius of my service area also happens to be my neighborhood of over 20 plus years, so I am pretty familiar with all safe places and hazard areas. In addition, I complete the Rover Card that tracks and documents where we walked to include the number pees and poops. I always carry a supply of poop bags on our walks.

Information Peter (Pj) J. would like to know about your pet

My current dogs (a geriatric Pug and 2 French Bull dogs) have had a wide variety of health and medication needs. That included eyedrops, administering RX prescriptions and even using doggie diapers. So, whatever your dog requires, let me know and I probably have done it and can handle it. I typically like to do a Meet and Greet (a no additional charge) the day before so I can see your pup in his/her environment when you are with it. It also allows me to see if there are any unique leash set-ups.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both physically and mentally. That could entail going on a brisk walk (or run) or just let the dog take it's time and enjoy the sniffs! If the dog loves to play ball, we can do that too! It just so happens I am also a runner, so I am always looking for a good partner. Regardless, my typical walks cover at least a mile.

Availability

I try to accommodate working people or those who anticipate a long day away from home due to medical appointments, a shopping trip down to the valley or a round of golf! I find myself fortunate that the majority of my clients happen to be medical professionals from either YRMC or one of the other local medical providers. I realize they often have to work 10-12 hour shifts, or sometimes are held over. My schedule and the radius of my service area allows for me being able to accommodate these dedicated people and their pets, sometimes several times during the day.
