Home full-time. Will go on runs!

Pet care experience

Hello, I'm Dan. I am active duty military and happen to have the next few months off from work. I am trained by The Joint Special Operations Medical Training Center in canine medicine and first aid. I have always owned dogs- three Golden's, a German shepherd, and a Pomeranian. I am a skilled dog trainer and am happy to reinforce habits/tricks that you are teaching your dog or even introduce some new ones from my experience! For example, if walking, I can maintain any habits like heeling or sitting down when we stop for street crossings. If running, I can help the dog learn to not pull on the leash. Of course, if I only have a little time with the dog, Im no miracle worker, but I can assure you that your dog won't pick up any bad habits with me! Thanks!

Russell is an incredible caretaker for your dog! Actually...he’s the best. Whether you need your fury friend taken on a walk or taken care of overnight, Russell is your guy for the job! He is also Army trained in canine medicine and first aid. He arrives on time and ultimately I know I can always count on him. Highly recommend Russell!

A typical day

I have an SUV and can take your dog anywhere for hikes/runs. Or if you'd rather the dog have a relaxing day, I'm happy to walk them to the doggie spa and stand by while they enjoy themselves. I prefer to run every day, so I can take your dog for any distance run that you prefer.
