Dog Wispering is my Passion

Pet care experience

I have done pet foster care for Dane County Humane Society for a number of years. I take in injured and healing dogs. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I turned to them in times of need and they depend on me for companionship and guidance.

Robert is very soft spoken and earned the trust of our dogs fairly quickly. He completed everything we requested, sent us updates/pictures and seemed very friendly and professional. We would book with him again.

Robert did an excellent job with our two dogs. He spent a lot of time with them and exercised them well. They were happy when they came home. Thank you!

Robert treated our dog like his own. I think she wanted to stay with him

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large yard in the country and we have walking trails adjacent to our property. I have a 50 pound dog with hip dysplasia and a torn ACL she cannot do A whole lot at this time so I enjoy getting out and walking with other dogs. Our cat Luna recently passed away. She will be missed.

Information Robert I. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if a dog has any temperament problem. And what work for them as far as praise and discipline words. What gets their attention quickly. And are they more food driven or praise driven.

A typical day

We live close to the ice Age Trail. My dog loves to go for a walk there. We also have paths through our woods with a pond down the hill full of geese and cranes. The deer often wander through the field adjacent to our property and the dogs like to bark and sniff. I have a cart that attaches to my bicycle that I put my dog in. He does not have much interest in balls anymore. But we have plenty of them and frisbees around for fetch.
