Former MWD/Security K9 Handler

Pet care experience

I have just under 6 years of experience as a dog trainer and handler. I have prior experience as a Military Working Dog Handler, Security K9 Handler, & currently a pet trainer. I have worked with all sorts of dogs, each with their own character & temperament. I think it’s important for a positive and respectful relationship to be built right off the bat! I am currently working part time and my wife (also a former MWD Trainer) is at home full time with our 2 well behaved dogs that would love some company on our walks and during our play time! Feeding is once in the morning and once at night, unless otherwise specified. Potty brakes, fresh air walks, & belly rubs are offered every hour. Our 2 dogs (7yo Heeler, 9mo Transylvanian Hound) are crate trained. They sleep and eat separate from each other and the same will be done with your pet. I have no problem kennel training if needed. With permission, the occasional pet friendly park visits will also be a highlight of your dogs day! A well controlled, supervised and positive environment is known to produce happy, obedient dogs! Safety is my number one priority. I am more than willing to schedule a meet & greet in order to establish a relationship with you and your dog. We do not believe in long periods of time in their kennels and want to create an environment your pet looks forward to!

We left Cruella with Ryan for a week. He sent us daily pictures and updated us on her well being. Cruella was taken on walks. She had a sore on her head that started a few days before her stay. She scratched it open and he immediately notified us. Ryan had a cone that he sanitized and let her use until we returned from our trip. We were happy with the care Cruella received and are confident in leaving her with him in the future.

Information Ryan D. would like to know about your pet

It’s always good to have a brief rundown of the dog ahead of time! Breed, size, age, sex, & temperament are all good things I prefer to know before the meet & greet!

A typical day

Walks, belly rubs, peanut butter kongs, running around in the fenced in dog area (alone) and lots of time in the sun, I’m positive your pet will have so much fun!
