I'll run with your 4-legged friend!

Pet care experience

I'm an animal lover and have grown up with dog's my entire life. I currently own a Portuguese Water Dog named Duke who is 2-years old. I have helped to train him since he was 6-weeks old. His is now very well behaved and can understand many commands. I walk him every day and continuously teach him. Prior to Duke, I had a Soft Coated Wheaton Terrier named Mick who lived to 13-years old and was my best bud. I also helped to train him to be a very friendly dog that was great with our family. I recently graduated from Prospect High School and ran Cross Country and Track and am happy to run with your dog. I'm very active and am happy to help your dog get a great workout. I am working and going to school, but have a very flexible schedule. I'm happy to help out with your dog however possible. I will treat it with the love and respect that I treat my buddy, Duke!

Ryan has been amazing with my 12 yr old baby, Bella! He is extremely patient and loving. Ryan is someone we trust %100. He keeps us in the loop and often sends us photos which makes this dog mom very happy. Cannot imagine using someone other than Ryan to take care of our fur baby.:)

Ryan has watched our dog for the past 2 1/2 years whenever we are out of town or long day trips. He has always been dependable and lets us know how Lulu’s day has been! I get neighbor comments how interactive they see him with her.. which equals a very active dog worn out for me!!

Ryan, you did a great job. I only booked him for 30-min, but Ryan walked and played for over an hour. You’re the best dog walker! Thank you!

Ryan really is perfection!! I have two dogs and they both have very separate needs. He takes my younger pup on long walks and is so playful with him. My senior dog he loves up and makes sure he is comfortable. I can’t say enough about this young man. He is professional and reliable:) He even takes pics of them and sends them off to me at work so I’m not worried about them! I trust him more than my husband to make sure they all both healthy and happy..ha!? Your pups will be in wonderful hands with Ryan!

Information Ryan K. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs and am happy to walk any types of dogs. I would want to understand what their strengths and challenges are before sitting them. Are they friendly with other dogs? Are they good with children? Do they have anxiety around anything in particular (i.e loud noises, larger dogs, or young children)? Are they housebroken and how often are they need to be walked or let outside?

A typical day

I love to be active, so I'm happy to make sure your dog will get plenty of exercise. I live close by Melas Park and am happy to take your dog there or to other dog-friendly parks in the neighborhood. If you're training your dog, I'm also happy to help reinforce your training. I'm also happy to introduce your dog to my dog, Duke. If they get along, I'm happy to walk them together and help socialize them.
